Electric-assist mountain bikes (EMTBs) are today’s top-selling bicycles, and e-scooters the most numerous of all EVs. It’s clear ‘light and easy’ is a successful recipe, and Stefan Ytterborn pushed EMTB design forward with Kalk, a 150lb, 50mph, off-roader with an ultramodern architecture that’s taken design awards around the world. It’s a brilliant clean-sheet design, from the chassis to the batteries and motor: all are unique to Cake. Even markets hostile to IC dirt bikes have opened their arms to Kalk’s friendly, hi-tech vibe.
The CAKE Kalk bike, built for light off-road performance, uses an industrial standard IPM motor, customized for CAKE and made in Europe. It’s a range 7-15 kW mid motor, powered by a 51.8 Volt, 50Ah battery for torque and range, conducted by specifically developed and tuned software, for the controller and dynamic performance.
