A clean, lightweight city e-bike with Bosch hub motor, integrated lights and frame lock as standard. The Gazelle Curb starts at £1,999 in belt or 9-speed form.

The Curb is Gazelle’s stripped-back city bike. A slim aluminium frame, a Bosch motor in the rear hub, a 360 Wh battery hidden in the down tube, and only the equipment a town bike needs: lights, a frame lock and mudguards. At £1,999 it is the least expensive Gazelle we list, and it won a Red Dot “Best of the Best” award in 2026 for the way it looks.

Who is this bike for?

The Curb makes sense if you:

Ride mostly in town – short to medium journeys on roads and cycle paths, where a 45 Nm hub motor has more than enough to offer
Want a bike that looks like a bike – the battery and cabling are hidden, and the matte black components against the gloss frame colour are unusually tidy at this price
Are wary of e-bike weight – Gazelle quotes 44.5 lb (around 20 kg) for the C1 without its battery, which is light for a Bosch-equipped bike with integrated lights and a frame lock
Dislike maintenance – the C1 pairs a Gates belt with a single speed, so there is no chain to oil and no derailleur to adjust
Prefer gears – the T9 swaps the belt for a Shimano Cues 9-speed derailleur, which helps if your route includes hills or you like to spin

It is less suitable if your commute is long and hilly. The 360 Wh battery and hub motor are a sensible pairing for flatter urban riding, but if you regularly climb or want 60-plus miles between charges, the Paris or Medeo with a Bosch mid-drive will serve you better.

Choose your configuration

Both builds share the frame, motor, battery, brakes and lights. The difference is the drivetrain and the colour palette:

Curb C1 – Gates belt drive with a single gear. Silent, clean and close to maintenance-free. Ivory white, soft peach, black or platinum white, all gloss. £1,999
Curb T9 – Shimano Cues 9-speed derailleur with a KMC chain and chain guard. More range of gearing for undulating routes. Thunder grey or pistache green gloss. £1,999

Accessory options

The Curb ships without carriers, keeping the lines clean. Gazelle offers a front carrier and a rear carrier as extras, and the front carrier is shown on the ivory bike in our photos. Ask us for current prices when you order. A phone mount for the handlebar is sold separately.

Less to look after

Most e-bikes at this price add equipment to justify the cost. The Curb goes the other way and spends the money on a Bosch system, hydraulic brakes and a frame that is pleasant to look at and easy to lift. If your riding is urban and your storage is a hallway, that trade is worth making.
