The Ultimate C8 combines a dynamic appearance with exceptional comfort. In an active riding position you will experience excellent road holding thanks to the bike’s low center of gravity. Low-maintenance components such as the Nexus gear hub and the durable belt drive guarantee ease of operation and flawless functioning — as well as carefree cycling pleasure!
The Ultimate is the pride of our Gazelle ebike family. Recognized for its winning design, the Ultimate is known for its stability as well as its sleekness. Combining sporty rigidity with a comfortable active geometry, the accessible low, step-through frame is easy to mount and dismount, and maintains a low center of gravity. The battery is hidden in the down tube, not only creating a modern look, but also providing a balanced ride feel so you can cycle with confidence in any situation.
Hidden comfort
At first glance, the Ultimate C8's beautifully styled front fork is a logical addition to its sleek design. Together, they create a distinctive and stylish look. But on closer inspection, you will notice something else: the accordion connection between the frame and fork. Under the rubber is the integrated front-fork suspension that absorbs the impact of bumps in the road surface. The suspension is barely visible, but all the more noticeable. We call that hidden comfort.
Low maintenance ease
Minimum maintenance equals maximum enjoyment. With the Shimano Nexus 8 system, eight gears are built into the rear hub of the wheel. They are protected against the wind and weather, reducing wear and maintenance. Combined with a durable and hassle-free Gates carbon belt drive, bike maintenance is kept to a minimum, shifting is smooth and silent, and your bike's longevity is all but guaranteed!
