The Bukk is ready to compete: Introducing the CAKE Enduro Factory team
CAKE, the Swedish maker of premium lightweight, electric motorcycles, is proud to announce the the birth of the CAKE Enduro Factory Team, welcoming its first two riders, Emelie Dahl (SWE) and Robert Kvarnström (SWE), as the very start of an expanding international team.
The CAKE Enduro Team is set to participate in a few enduro races in 2023 on the recently launched Bukk, building a solid infrastructure for a full-force international debut in Spring 2024, with enduro and off-road races planned across Europe and USA.
"It feels amazing to finally start racing for CAKE. After the first Bukk test days, Emelie and I are confident, and our sole ambition is to simply win the races we're participating in," says Robert Kvarnström, CAKE Enduro team leader. "Previous Kalk races have been met with different emotions from other race participants, and to continue racing for real is equally exciting and important to be able to influence a large portion of the moto community. People need to understand that motor power does not necessarily equate to fast lap times and this will become the perfect evidence."
Kvarnström emphasizes the importance of electric, lightweight, and nimble motorcycles with powerful acceleration as key elements shaping the future of the sport. "This will be an eye-opener for many, including myself. We are faster on these machines in several formats and conditions, and it creates many new racing opportunities."
"With the mission to accelerate towards a zero emission society combining excitement with responsibility, the racing scene has huge potential. This initiative is crucial to have the ability to beat traditional motorcycles on their hometurf, become a clear start for even looking at, considering and eventually even getting its first electric racing machine." Added Stefan Ytterborn, CEO & Founder of CAKE.
The CAKE Factory Team will race the Bukk Power Light. Bukk is the newest addition to the CAKE lineup and developed the lightest competitive enduro bike on the market. Read more about the Bukk at: ridecake.com/p/bukk
