Step-Through eBikes

What is a Step-Through Electric Bike?

Looking for an easy, comfortable, and enjoyable way to ride? Step-through ebikes offer a perfect solution. These bikes are suitable for both women and men. Unlike traditional step-over bikes that require lifting your leg over the saddle, step-through ebikes feature a lowered or even absent crossbar or top tube, allowing you to simply "step through" the frame and ride with ease. This thoughtful design not only makes mounting and dismounting more accessible for all riders but also creates a naturally low center of gravity, enhancing the bike's balance, durability, and overall riding experience.

Like other Gazelle ebikes, our step-through bicycles are built with high-quality components. Front and rear hydraulic disc brakes allow you to stop safely and quickly. A Gazelle's rear rack or integrated battery provides a long range, letting you explore further and longer. The pedal assist from the motor flattens even the steepest hills.

Why Should You Choose a Step-Through eBike?

Choosing a low step electric bike offers numerous benefits that cater to a wide range of riders. With its low frame design, this type of bike provides exceptional balance and stability, making it easier and more comfortable to mount and dismount. This is particularly advantageous for seniors, shorter individuals, or those with mobility challenges. The upright riding position reduces back strain and places more weight and pressure on the hips and legs. The ergonomic seating position allows for added visibility, so you can stay safe because you can see more of what is happening around you. Additionally, the electric power boost enhances your cycling experience, making it easier to tackle hills and longer distances without overexertion. Whether you're rediscovering the joy of cycling or seeking a more accessible way to stay active, a step-through ebike offers the perfect combination of comfort, control, and electric-assisted fun.
