Kalkhoff IMAGE 1 MOVE

The 2024 Kalkhoff IMAGE 1 MOVE model is an e-bike that impresses with its well-thought-out features and modern technology. The price of 2,599 EUR reflects the high-quality build and reliable components that make this bike an excellent choice for everyday use. The IMAGE 1 MOVE features the 1|23 Bosch frame, which supports a maximum permissible weight of up to 130 kg, making it suitable for heavier riders or those carrying extra luggage.

The Magura MT A2 hydraulic disc brakes, combined with the corresponding brake levers, ensure safe and reliable braking performance in a variety of conditions. The Shimano Nexus 8-speed derailleur enables smooth and precise gear changes, whilst the gear lever is also from Shimano Nexus. The SR Suntour NVX30 fork, with 80 mm of travel, offers comfortable suspension and enhances riding comfort on uneven terrain.

To ensure safety on the road, the IMAGE 1 MOVE is fitted with the Herrmans CL3 front light and the Herrmans H-Trace LED rear light. The aluminium pedals offer comfort and durability, whilst the crankset is also made of aluminium. Power is transmitted via a KMC Z1 EPT chain with a special anti-rust coating, which ensures a long service life.

The aluminium handlebars in a touring design and the adjustable stem, measuring 90 mm in length, allow for individual adjustment of the riding position. The Schürmann CRAFT 21 rims and the Schwalbe Energizer Plus Performance tyres in size 55-622 contribute to stable and safe handling. The Shimano hubs – the TX505 with quick-release at the front and the Nexus 8-speed hub at the rear – round off the well-designed hub system.

The Selle Royal Nuvola saddle, combined with the patented suspension seatpost, offers additional comfort on longer rides. Practical details such as the plastic mudguards with edge protection and the MIK Rear Carrier luggage rack enhance the bike’s suitability for everyday use.

The IMAGE 1 MOVE is powered by the Bosch Active Line Smart System motor, which operates at a voltage of 36 V, a power output of 250 W and a torque of 40 Nm. The accompanying Li-ion battery, with a capacity of 400 Wh, ensures sufficient range for city riding. The Bosch Intuvia 100 display with LED remote offers intuitive operation and a clear overview of all key riding data. The Bosch charger, with an output of 2A, enables efficient recharging of the battery. With a crank length of 170 mm, the IMAGE 1 MOVE is optimally designed for a comfortable pedalling motion.
