Explore the Kalk INK Race
A solid performer, at the lowest weight possible.
All power, no compromises
Light & Powerful
280Nm of rear-wheel torque, housed in a lightweight chassi, creates a unique power to weight ratio.
Quiet
The Kalk combines leading lightweight and sturdiness at maximum performance. No pollution, no disturbance. Explore with respect.
Clean
Electric drivetrain means zero emissions of carbon dioxide from riding. It also means that you can forget about fumes, oil changes, and filling up fuel.
“You certainly couldn’t get around there that quick on a 450cc […] this is the best.”
- Sam Pilgrim, professional Freeride Mountain biker and former FMB world champion
Robert Kvarnström
2x Swedish champ & 10x World Enduro Championships podiums
”World’s fastest bike in compact technical formats.”
Electric bike action
“Using the regen was fantastic. We liked mode two most of the time, but mode three was fantastic when descending and at times when going over jumps to help keep the bike from looping. Overall balance on the bike was fantastic, and at 143 pounds, you can throw the bike around more than you can a gas-powered motocross bike.”
Digital trends
"The Kalk OR is a super light bike with face-melting amounts of all-electric torque and the most premium parts."
Establishing a new racing category
Introducing the Midsize category – a nimble form factor that make the most out of a powerful, all-electric drivetrain. Premium, proprietary components that can take a beating, while being feathery light. Enjoy the ride.
Ride Modes
Ride mode 1
The ultimate mode during exploration. Top speed limited to 45 km/h (28mph) with 3-4 hours of battery range.
Ride mode 2
With 1-2 hours of riding time, a top speed of 70km/h and snappy acceleration, this mode is perfect for enduro riding out in the woods.
Ride mode 3
The perfect choice when you need all power available. Maximum torque and speed, no restrictions when it comes to performance. Up to 1 hour of riding time.
Braking Modes
Braking mode 1
No simulated motor braking. Feels like riding a bike, perfect for smooth, relaxed sessions.
Braking mode 2
Similar to 2-stroke motor braking, with energy regeneration. As you release the throttle you feel the bike slowing down at a slow pace.
Braking mode 3
Similar to 4-stroke motor braking, with energy regeneration. The bike will slow down significantly when the throttle is released. A good choice for technical tracks when full control of the bike is needed.
