Vélo de Ville Gazelle Marco Polo Urban

The Gazelle Marco Polo Urban is a very nice city bike which performs great in the city and out.

The light aluminium frame guarantees excellent handling. Sharp steering and very stable at the straights. This allows you to move easily through busy city traffic. And if you suddenly have to brake hard, you can rely on the powerful Shimano disc brakes. A comforting thought.

The Marco Polo Urban doesn't require much maintenance. This is partly due to the belt drive and the Alfine 8 speed gear hub.

Anyone looking for a sporty and low-maintenance bike should take a closer look at the Gazelle Marco Polo.

The Marco Polo
The Marco Polo is a well-known bike from Gazelle. It is known for its unique, sporty appearance and low weight. The same can be said of this Urban variant. With a lightweight aluminium frame, front fork and luggage carrier, this bike comes in at around 16.2 kg. The Gazelle Marco Polo Urban comes with a fixed front fork for optimal steering behaviour. It comes with a sporty stem and handlebar, to get the most out of it. If you don't want to sit completely hunched over, it can be slightly tilted with the adjustable stem. It is and always will be a sporty bike.

Shifting and braking
This sporty city bike has a good range. With its Shimano Alfine hub, it has no less than 8 gears that run very smoothly! This makes it easy to pull away at traffic lights and move around urban areas. Thanks to Gates' belt drive, you have good power transmission. Moreover, with this drivetrain, you no longer have to worry about the weather. Brine, rain or dirt roads? Be glad you no longer have a chain... With this belt drive, you can happily leave your chain brush and chain oil in the cupboard! The braking system of this sporty city bike doesn't lag behind either, as can be expected. With no less than two pistons, these hydraulic disc brakes allow you to stop in no time. Plus, the brakes are easy to modulate and won't let you down in foul weather.

Ready to go
As soon as you've bought the bike, you'll be ready to go! This bike can't wait to take you on new adventures. With its ergonomic handles, it offers good support for your palms so you can last for hours on this bike. Thanks to its sturdy tyres, it takes away initial vibrations and makes for a smooth ride. Fully equipped with a strong headlight of no less than 50 lux, keeping you safe when it's dark out. To be able to park your bike safely, there is a side stand and an approved ART ring lock from Trelock.
