And no I'm not in love with it - I have not ridden it yet. And I'm actually horrible at making decisions.

I'm thinking if after riding the Gazelle (I will later today) if I prefer the Trek I may just wait a bit, since inventory is low here right now. We are approaching snow season in Minnesota and leaving town for a couple of weeks so if I buy something now I will not be able to ride it this year...

Yes the Gazelle does have the ugly bump vs. the integrated battery so I agree the Trek looks a bit nicer. I have confirmed the Gazelle is the latest T9 model that Gazelle offers, which is a 2024/2025 model.

I stand corrected - the Trek has the Performance Line Smart System (75 torque) - all other specs do seem the same. I'm thinking that might be more helpful for hills, etc. but not sure how much of a difference I would notice between those two things?

I rode the Verve+3 Gen 3 yesterday and almost bought it but decided to think about it overnight. I'm curious about your comments on the Gazelle Medeo T9 (not the T9 City) having older, cheap components. I re-looked at the specs for both of them and they both have: Bosch Smart System Active...

Thanks I will add that to my list to check out!

Forgot to answer this. The Verve+3 model I was looking at was 545 Wh, with a Bosch Performance Line, 250W, 75Nm, 25km/h motor. The others are all 500 Wh.

Thank you Stefan - this is exactly the kind of input I was looking for. I am not opposed to paying a bit more for something if the quality is there - honestly I'm just overwhelmed by looking at all of the specs and being able to compare things like motors, battery size, etc. I also have a...

Yes I had thought about this. There is only one shop near us that carries Gazelle, but several that carry Trek or Electra

I'm purchasing my first eBike. I am a 62 year-old female wanting to use it to join my husband on his bike rides and for casual exercise. He usually rides 30-35 miles a couple of times a week in city roads and bike paths, so it will be mostly for exercise and recreational riding (although I don't...
