Medeo T9: Sporty and Versatile

- True Step-Through Design
The Medeo T9 boasts a re-engineered, tougher frame that eliminates the top tube for easier mounting and dismounting. This design is not only aesthetically pleasing, it’s also more accessible for riders who prefer a low step-over height.
- Extra Small Frame
Short kings and queens rejoice! Responding to rider demand, we’ve introduced a 40cm frame that can accommodate heights from 4’9” to 5’2”. It’s a perfect fit for shorter riders who haven’t been able to find their size in our lineup before.
- Wheel and Tire Specs
Equipped with 27.5” wheels and 62 mm tires, the Medeo T9 provides excellent handling and stability, even on rough terrains. Great for tackling less than well-maintained city streets.
- Battery and Motor
The T9 comes with a 545 Wh battery and Bosch’s Active Line Plus motor, providing robust power and extended range. You might notice we’ve relocated the battery to the downtube. This new design lowers the center of gravity on the bike, which makes for a very stable ride.

This bike is perfect for the professional or student looking to add some movement and fun to their daily commute or anyone who wants Gazelle quality for an accessible price.
