Gazelle? Does anyone know anything about them?

Thanks, sorry though for posting this in the Gazelle thread. This is no place for a Zieleman.

One of the nicer Gazelles I once owned. Not 'pro-spec' but the paint was as new...

So fresh and so clean 👍🏻

Tange headset?

Looks like Tange (or Hattaswan) indeed but it's a Speeder Road Champion

cheers! all full res pics are here for those interested

Ooh that's nice. Bit pricey though

It's spotless.

Trying hard not to buy this... argh!!

The top tube ding put me off. It is lovely though. Gutted I couldn't get that one on ebay recently

Ah yeah, good shout - missed that the excitement...

Them stainless ones are tasty. Don't see that many framebuilders making stainless frames.

This one is pretty decent too. Crap photo though, sorry for that

I wonder if anyone would do a modern version of the Gazelle Vredestein kit. Id definitely buy it

I remember there was a DAF one released a few years ago...

Found a gazelle Facebook group as I was hunting my old Lo-Pro... stole some photos, I’d love one of the mini frames!

Love the mini frames. TT bike is on my list of Gazelles to buy when I've bought a bigger house.

CASP Cycling have said they will reproduce that kit if anyone is interested? I'm sorely tempted as I was going to buy some new bits anyway

Any idea how much they’d be asking? And is the lkit you’re referring to the later vertical striped one?

Either or. Not sure which i prefer. Maybe the more old school version?

Not cheap. I will also contact Kalas as they have low minimums and are good quality.

I'd quite like some shorts too.

I stumbled across the guys at Cima Coppi clothing. Not cheap and they won't produce anything with a trademark on. But they can make this... its not cheap though. Looking around £150 for a merino wool jersey

Interesting but you could buy an original one off eBay for less?
(I got mine for £30 a few years back 👍🏻)

Love that! Can I rob it for insta?

I wouldn't want to wear a real one though. Also the back back pockets of vintage Jersey offends my sense of style a bit too much

Yeah sure, insta away!
Yeah old wool jerseys stretch so it’s about twice as long as it should be, it’s easy to sit on the pockets after an effort out of the saddle... 🤷‍♂️
