Gazelle Ultimate C8+ HMB Electric Bike

Est delivery: 3 weeks

A premium electric bike combining sporty performance with comfort and a smooth, low-maintenance ride.

About the Ultimate range

The Ultimate range is Gazelle’s premium all-round platform. It blends 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 both performance and comfort.

What makes the C8+ different

The C8+ uses Shimano Nexus 8 hub gearing paired with a Gates belt drive, creating a smooth, quiet and low-maintenance setup.

Compared to the C5, it offers a wider gear range.
Compared to the C380, it keeps things simpler and more intuitive.

Why we like the Ultimate C8+

This is the sweet spot. It’s refined, quiet and easy to live with, but still gives enough range and capability for everyday and longer rides.
