Breda by Gazelle: a calm, unhurried city ride on the Ambiance damesfiets.
There’s a particular steadiness to cycling in Breda: a low-slung Dutch city pace that the Gazelle Ambiance captures. This rental puts you on an aluminum‑framed ladies’ bike with Shimano Nexus 7 gears, adjustable saddle and handlebars, a luggage rack and integrated lighting — a simple, durable platform for roaming parks, canalsides and cobbled streets while you take in the city at walking speed.

Outing Highlights
Gazelle Ambiance — built for steady city miles
The Ambiance comes with a Shimano Nexus 7 drivetrain, an aluminium frame, Rollerbrake system, an adjustable saddle and handlebars, a luggage carrier with fasteners, a hub‑dynamo front light and an LED rear light — all the basics for confident, all‑day city riding.
Tailor the ride with practical add‑ons
SeeBreda offers optional extras so the Ambiance adapts to your needs: a child seat, pannier bag and helmets are available to add comfort and utility to the standard setup.
Simple rules: lock, inspect and call if needed
Inspect the bike on pickup and report defects. A €50 cash deposit is required; always secure the bike with both locks (including chaining to a fixed object). Theft or major loss can lead to a replacement charge of €300; damage and key loss (replacement €25) are the renter’s responsibility, and the operator asks you to phone if you experience trouble en route.
What the day feels like
What the rental experience feels like
The Ambiance is a straightforward, comfortable city bike: adjust the saddle and bars, clip into the seven‑speed Nexus hub as needed, load light gear on the carrier and set off. The setup emphasizes reliability and ease rather than sport performance — exactly the kind of machine that keeps a day of wandering across Breda relaxed and practical.
