Kalkhoff ENTICE 1 MOVE

The 2024 Kalkhoff ENTICE 1 MOVE model offers a balanced combination of technical features and comfort, making it an attractive choice for cyclists looking for a reliable e-bike. Priced at 2799 EUR, the bike is positioned in the mid-range price segment and offers a wide range of high-quality components. The bike’s frame is the 1|23 Bosch, which ensures stability and supports a maximum load of up to 130 kg.

The braking system consists of Tektro T280 hydraulic disc brakes with dual-piston technology, ensuring reliable braking performance. The drivetrain is a 9-speed Shimano Cues system, operated via the Shimano Cues shift lever. This combination allows for precise gear changes and adapts well to different riding conditions. The SR Suntour NVX30 fork, with 100 mm of travel, contributes to a comfortable ride on various surfaces.

For lighting, the bike is fitted with the Herrmans MR5 front light and the Herrmans H-Trace LED rear light, ensuring good visibility and safety on the road. As is typical for MTBs, the pedals are fitted with reflectors, which also contribute to safety. The drive is assisted by the Bosch Performance Line Smart System motor, which delivers 250 W of power and 75 Nm of torque. The motor is powered by a 400 Wh lithium-ion battery, controlled via the Bosch Purion 200 colour display. A Bosch 2A charger is also included in the package.

The bike features aluminium touring handlebars which, together with the adjustable stem (90 mm in length), ensure a comfortable riding position. The RODI TRYP25 rims are eyeleted and, together with the Schwalbe Smart Sam tyres (57-584) and the Niro spokes, are designed for durability. Both the front and rear hubs are Shimano TX505 models with quick-release (QR) mechanisms.

The Selle Royal TCM saddle and aluminium seatpost provide additional comfort on longer rides. Practical features such as the plastic mudguards with edge protection and the MIK luggage rack round off the Kalkhoff ENTICE 1 MOVE’s specification, making it suitable for both everyday use and longer tours.
