about Kalk INK
The Kalk INK is based on the same technology as the Kalk OR. Same powerful drivetrain with slightly heavier and stable wheels and a simplified yet sturdier suspension. It’s all about fast, hassle free and thrilling backcountry exploration, without polluting or disturbing.
The focus on developing the Kalk Models has been off-road performance and innovation.
As there wasn’t anything off-the shelf to support the category, every single component had to be developed from an empty sheet, to support the intended level of quality and durability:
The sizing, the geometry and engineering of axles, hubs, rims, the cockpit and suspension, as well as building and customising the different parts of the drivetrain, together with developing a whole new chassis; having led to numerous patent pendings, constitutes the introduction of a new category, the Light Electric Off Road Motorbikes (L.E.Os). Please note that KalkINK is developed for off-road use only.
