Facts
Summary of Reviews
We have read all expert and user reviews on the Gazelle Medeo T9. In summary, this is what cyclists think.
17 reasons to buy
- One expert is "really impressed" by the features and performance of the T9 city at this price. Several Medeo owners say they "love" their bikes.
- Reviewers praise the premium finish, citing smooth welds, "beautiful" paint, and a "nicely integrated" overall feel.
- One tester reached close to 90 miles of riding range with constant pedaling.
- This bike comes in two builds: the T9 City and the slightly higher-spec T9. Testers are impressed to see a Bosch mid-drive e-bike at this price point.
- Both builds have fenders, integrated lights, and a MIK rack rated for 60lb.
- The T9 build comes as a step-over or mid-step frame with three sizes, fitting riders from 4'10" to 6'4".
- Experts agree the Bosch motor is smooth, quiet, and "very responsive."
- Riders enjoy the ride comfort provided by the 50mm suspension fork.
- Riders appreciate the inclusion of a 180mm front rotor, which helps provide reliable, powerful braking that's easy to modulate.
- An expert says the wide gearing range (38t chainring, 11-36t 9-speed cassette) helps on climbs.
- The T9 has a half-cover chain case that keeps dirt off clothing.
- Testers say the light battery keeps overall weight down and is easy to carry when removed.
- Gazelle provides extensive warranties of 10 years on the frame, five years on fork and paint, and two years on other parts.
- Reviewers relish the "natural" feel of the pedal assist.
- One tester is pleasantly surprised by how easy it is to pedal with the motor off.
- At 47.2lb and 48.1lb, the Medeo T9 builds are relatively light.
- The 4A charger included with the higher-priced T9 completes a full charge in just three hours.
4 reasons not to buy
- The T9 City comes in just two sizes for riders between 4'10" and 5'10".
- Several reviewers bemoan the lack of a smartphone app.
- The T9 City lacks the café lock included with the T9 and similar Dutch-style city bikes.
- The entry-level Bosch Active Line 40Nm motor on the T9 City lacks the kick of some competitors.
Bottom line
The Gazelle Medeo T9 is a Class 1 Dutch-style city bike. Testers appreciate the premium build quality, feature-rich design, and smooth, comfortable ride. While the T9 has two frame styles and broad sizing, the T9 City won't suit riders over 5'10" or those who prefer a step-over. Both builds also lack the outright speed and power offered by some competitors. Overall, however, this bike stands out for its practicality, elegance, durability, and competitive pricing as a Bosch mid-drive e-bike.Expert Reviews
