November 10, 2020 - (Santa Cruz, CA) – Gazelle Bikes has made significant investments in developing a strong organization in North America over the past four years with an ever-expanding product portfolio that addresses consumer needs and industry-leading customer service. In an effort to meet the needs of an even broader set of riders, Gazelle is excited to announce it will begin managing North American distribution of the Urban Arrow’s Family electric cargo bike in 2021. This new partnership between Urban Arrow and Gazelle Bikes will offer retailers an even broader assortment of premium Dutch ebikes and exceptional support for customers through the streamlining of sales operations and distribution.
The Urban Arrow Family cargo ebike has redefined the category with its innovative front-loader design, lightweight robust frame, and safe and comfortable features and construction. Industry-leading components include a choice of Bosch Performance or Cargo line mid-mounted motors with a 500wh battery, Enviolo CVT stepless shifting technology, powerful disc brakes, and a catalog of accessories to customize the bike to individual needs. This game-changing family cargo ebike allows the rider to escape the trappings of traffic and the stresses of a busy schedule to embrace the joy of riding as a family, with room to spare…for groceries, luggage, and all of life’s essentials.
“We’ve witnessed incredible market growth for ebikes since Gazelle entered the North American market nearly four years ago, and Gazelle Bikes and Urban Arrow offer complementary products, a shared pedigree of Dutch cycling excellence, and a common goal to provide best-in-class customer service and product support to our network of North American dealers.” said Ewoud van Leeuwen, General Manager of Gazelle North America. “Gazelle successfully launched our fall model preview last month, and we look forward to proactively collaborating with our friends at Urban Arrow to continue the upward trajectory of increasing micro-mobility awareness in the market while supporting our independent retailers.”
The Urban Arrow announcement comes on the heels of last month’s Gazelle Electric Bikes announcement of the brand’s forthcoming 2021 models. Further expanding on an already robust line-up, Gazelle is releasing two new models: The Ultimate C380 and the Ultimate C8, and a new high-step frame option for the Ultimate T10. Characterized by its innovative and award-winning design, the Ultimate family of Gazelle electric bikes cleverly combine sporty looks, high performance, and complete comfort, for a remarkable ride-feel. The newest Ultimates bring exciting new features to the North American market, including belt drives and CVT stepless shifting technology.
The new models marry elegant design, supreme comfort, effortless shifting, and desirable technology to create a delightful riding experience, for all types of cyclists. These new bikes will begin shipping to Gazelle’s North American network of retailers this month. The Ultimate C8 will have an MSRP of $3,499 USD while the Ultimate C380 will have an MSRP of $3,999 USD.
