Since Covid appeared in my life, I found a good way to stay normal. I was introduced to Ebike and the rest was history. Ebike became my main transportation to work, I cut alot of things like gas expense, parking fee and traffic hussle. It also made me more active and be normal as I fight the boredom of Covid hours, days and years.. my ebike made me find my hidden talent in photography, my desire with landscapes and my ability to beat boredom. I had a couple of ebike before I finally said, These is the right bike for me. With its belt drive, internal shift gearing and 85NM torque, I am sold with it. Living in a hilly city always give you fear of making it to the top, not anymore, that fear is over and all i think now is how far I can go which made me look on the possibility of having a extra battery. Battery averages 30-35 miles combination of all which is not bad. But as you enjoy riding you overlook the miles you do, thats how fun it rides. Last thing that sold me with this bike is the cost of maintenance, all I spend right now are mostly upgrades which Is not needed but wanting for my bike.. it needs to show my personality as I ride it. Components that came with it are all quality one, I am having a hard time finding reason to visit The New Wheel SF who did a great job on my previous bikes. Oh well, so far I am very satisfied with the performance of my gazelle C380+, It has all the things I needed and wanted to get around San Francisco. people stares and figuring what bike it is..It might not be the most common brand but people who knows the history of bikes are all amazed with Gazelle.. all they said is Its a quality bike…

Congrats on your new ebike and way to go on combatting Covid boredom and mixing up your routine to include biking! Very smart move for sure. I’ve only been to San Francisco once as a tourist and remember the hills were pretty wicked so would imagine an ebike makes it a lot easier, beautiful city you live in! Enjoy the commute and stay safe!

Nice bike! I have one too. Could you show me how to mount an additional battery there? It seems like this mid step model doesn't support dual battery, according to Gazelle's website. Thanks!
