”Like flying down an endless DH course with no need for a hill."

- Robin Wallner, Ibis cycles Enduro race team

BikeRumor

”The reason the Kalk works so well is the use of a frame, a motor, suspension, wheels, tires, and cockpit all designed specifically for this weight class and riding style. Nothing is over or under-built, and that means lightweight, high performance."

Hiconsumption

“Thanks to an envelope-pushing powertrain with gobs of torque and a ridiculously light curb weight, the riding experience offered by the Kalk is genuinely unlike anything else out there.”

Revival Cycles

"Of the ebike craze, this is the finest one made."
