The numbers were for the race department only, from 1974 onward. But I agree it doesn't sound right.This doesn't sound right. Total frame output regardless of model could be 15408 frames - everything from kids bikes, city bikes, utility bikes.
There could have been number ranges reserved for the lightweights, not necessarily filled. While I get Gazelle were and still are big, and offered a good complete range these numbers do seem high. The CM was definitely popular.
I can't image many Stayers would have been sold - max 50 per year?
In the graph, in 1979 they made 10000 bikes more than the preceding year. That is just too much, for a racing division.
The man behind the website got these figures from a man who worked at Gazelle and took them out of the archive.
