Gazelle Esprit HFB Electric Bike

The Gazelle Esprit HFB is perhaps the e-bike best suited for city life. With a robust frame and parts that can't be broken, this is an incredibly stable, reliable e-bike.

Sturdy city bike
One of the most important goals in designing the Gazelle Esprit HFB was that it should be suitable for city life. In these conditions, a bike has to withstand quite a lot, so every part of it has to be able to handle a knock or two. Bike lights often break quickly, so the Esprit HFB has bike lights integrated in the frame. That means they virtually can't be broken. The rest of the bike is very robust, too. It also ensures a comfortable sitting position, so you'll have a clear view of traffic. You'll be able to tackle urban traffic just fine on this city bike.

Proven technology
To make sure you can enjoy your new e-bike without any trouble, Gazelle has fitted reliable parts on the Esprit HFB. The Bafang front wheel motor, for example, has been in use for years. However, it's been updated multiple times, resulting in an optimally functioning product. With 30 Nm of torque, this e-bike is highly suitable for urban environments. You'll accelerate quickly after stopping at a traffic light, but you might want a little more power for a nice, long bike tour.

You can choose between two batteries, which give you a range of action of 110 and 150 kilometers respectively, so you can decide how expensive you want your bike to be. The maximum range of action is only attainable in perfect conditions: the wind at your back, flat, well-maintained roads and low strain. In normal conditions, ranges of ca. 55 kilometers for the small battery and 75 kilometers for the 450 Wh battery are more realistic. Because this technology has essentially been on the market for years, this e-bike can be yours for a positive price anyhow.

Reliable shifting and braking
Gazelle has chosen highly reliable, proven braking and shifting components instead of pioneering technology, too. That's how you can be sure the hub gear with 7 gears won't let you down. Plus, the gear range is more than wide enough to ensure you'll always have your preferred gear, at speeds up to 25 km/h.

The roller brakes ensure you'll come to a quick halt with this city bike. Although they have somewhat less braking force than other types of brakes, they work perfectly in all conditions. In other words: you'll have a great, reliable e-bike that you'll be able to rely on for years.

Gazelle-quality finish
Of course, Gazelle pulled out all the stops in terms of this bike's finish. Its stylish, matt colours are immediately striking, and its internal cable routing also gives this bike a stylish look. Plus, this bike is outfitted completely with quality mudguards, a sturdy lock and a stable bike stand. You won't lack anything!

The Gazelle Esprit HFB is a great choice for people who mostly want to use their bike for daily city rides. Thanks to the smart choice for proven, reliable technology, the price can be kept low while the quality is high. That's why this robust, stylish e-bike might be the ultimate electric city bike.
