The XR1 and XR2 models are made in such a way that you can turn them into a great holiday bike in no time. Mount a lock, a carrier and a front mudguard and you can start exploring the world. This makes them true all-round bikes, especially in combination with the 28” wheels and a divergent geometry.

With Gazelle you get the best quality for the best price. Just look at the finish of the welds, for instance. These are laid by hand very accurately. And with Gazelle you know for sure that there will never be more than one class difference within a mixed group of components. An Ultegra, for instance, can be mixed with a 105 but never with a Tiagra or lower. In the case of a mixed group, the rear derailleur always has a higher class than the group’s other components.

Carbon can be used to increase the comfort of an aluminium frame. Gazelle only selects the best carbon. This ensures that the frame has an optimally low weight and is stiff where necessary. As a result, the frame feels more comfortable and you experience as little vibration as possible.
As little vibration as possible Gazelle ensures that your bike is styled in the most
progressive way and that you have an enormous
advantage when it comes to design. That’s why we
possess, for instance, the most advanced lacquering line
for a truly dazzling finish. But our (unvarnished) titanium
bikes demonstrate what we’re referring
to as well. The titanium V8 is unvarnished
with blasted perfection.

Every SPN model features a so-called flat handlebar. These are straight bars (i.e. without drop) that are also applied to the XR models. An ideal solution if you use the bike for long rides and don’t want to have as much of a tough time as you would on a racing bike. Because you’re not leaning forward as much you have less chance of back aches and can brake more easily under all circumstances.

The SPN’s geometry is based on the Gazelle Race Compact geometry and tuned specially. Thus, the headset is positioned higher so that you are leaning forward less than on a comparable racing bike. And that means more comfort and more relaxation. Exactly what you need.
