Bike sections (eg brand/ type etc) - Cycle Heaven

The Gazelle Street Comfort range are our best selling, classic and most distinctive Dutch Type. In their basic format they are based on a design that has been around for most of the last century - working examples of 'if it ain't broken don't fix it.'

These bikes have the most upright riding position of all the Gazelles. The combination of fully swept back and upright handlebars, a long wheelbase, 'lazy' angles in the frame geometry, fat tyres and big wheels make them a delight to ride - very good over cobblestones which is a real benefit to those of us who live in historic cities! Especially loved by Yorkies, they have a really solid feel to them, and despite their weight, glide along like a dream.

These are great workhorse utility bikes. Great for shorter trips such as shopping, and short commuting, child carrying and all round personal transport. They are designed to be used daily and can really take the knocks. Their relaxed geometry make them very stable load carriers compared with most bikes. Carry a child, or two large panniers full of shopping and you will appreciate the difference. Good for all this on the flat, but such relaxed geometries do not suit hill climbing. for hiilier areas, choose a 'Strret Sports' model or hybrid.
