Three new models, including an all-new accessibility-focused design, deliver comfort, control, and performance for riders of all levels

SANTA CRUZ, Calif., Sept. 16, 2025 /PRNewswire/ -- Gazelle Bikes, one of the world's largest eBike manufacturers, trusted by more than 2 million riders worldwide, announced the launch of its fall model lineup. Three Class 1 bikes for North America: the Easyflow C7, the Arroyo C380, and the completely renewed Arroyo C5, reflect Gazelle's long heritage of engineering for everyday use, rider-first design, and Dutch craftsmanship to deliver an experience that's as joyful as it is reliable. At a time when market buzz centers on budget eBikes with throttles, Gazelle's newest models reaffirm the brand's commitment to quality, longevity, and comfort-driven design.

"This new lineup is all about giving riders more of what matters—comfort, confidence, and choice," said Mark Danhof, General Manager of Gazelle North America. "The Arroyo and Easyflow lines embody Gazelle's comfort-oriented philosophy, with its unique frame geometries promoting an upright riding posture. This design reduces strain on the wrists and back while also improving visibility and safety, so you can truly enjoy the ride."

A Radically Inclusive Ride: Gazelle Easyflow C7 (MSRP: $3,999; CAN: $4,999): Designed to bring confidence back to cycling—with an extra-wide low step-through frame and upright geometry, pedal-forward stability, endlessly customizable and adjustable stem, and intuitive controls.

The Easyflow C7 HMS marks Gazelle's return to Shimano eBike Systems with a thoughtfully inclusive model focused on comfort and control. Its pedal-forward design lets riders place both feet flat on the ground when stopped—providing extra confidence for new, petite, or older riders looking to extend their cycling lifetime. This isn't comfort as an afterthought—it's baked into every detail. With small 24" wheels, a long wheelbase, and an upright riding position, the Easyflow delivers a smooth, stable ride whether navigating city streets or enjoying a relaxed weekend cruise. Key features include:

  • Motor: Shimano EP5 mid-drive motor (50 Nm torque)
  • Battery: Shimano 504Wh for long-range assist
  • Display: Shimano SC-EN500 with an intuitive interface
  • Comfort Features: Gazelle's patented Switch stem for adjustable handlebar height and angle, integrated side mirror for added visibility
  • Wheels: Long wheel base with 24" wheels for a lower center of gravity and better balance
  • Frame Geometry: Pedal-forward design allows for feet flat on the ground stability at stops
  • Available Colors: Caramel Khaki / Pine Green
  • Sizes: One size fits all (adjustable frame design)

Performance Meets Comfort: The New Gazelle Arroyo Lineup Redefines Everyday Riding

The award-winning Arroyo family returns with two updated models designed for riders who prioritize comfort, control, and everyday performance, without sacrificing style. Built on Gazelle's heritage of rider-first engineering, the modernized upright step-through frames retain their signature ease while introducing thoughtful upgrades like a larger battery with integrated charge status display, a heavy-duty dual suspension fork, and a redesigned charge port for easier on-bike charging.

Both models are powered by the Bosch Smart System and include integrated safety features—like disc brakes, high-visibility lighting, and suspension seatposts—for smooth, stable rides in any setting.
