Gazelle Ultimate C5 HMB Electric Bike

Est delivery: 3 weeks

A premium electric bike designed for smooth, low-maintenance riding with a sporty, refined feel.

About the Ultimate range

The Ultimate range is Gazelle’s premium all-round platform. It combines a more active riding position with everyday comfort and high-end integration.

Compared to Orange or Grenoble, it feels lighter, faster and more refined — designed for riders who want something a step above everyday utility.

What makes the C5 different

The C5 uses Shimano Nexus 5 hub gearing paired with a Gates belt drive, creating a simple, quiet and very low-maintenance setup.

Combined with a Bosch Performance Line motor, it delivers smooth, powerful assistance without the complexity of derailleur or stepless systems.
