Kalkhoff ENTICE 3.B MOVE

The “ENTICE 3.B MOVE” model from Kalkhoff, launched in 2023, is a versatile e-bike that offers an appealing combination of technology and design. The price of 3,299 EUR reflects its high-quality specifications and well-thought-out construction. The bike’s frame, the Integrale 3|23, is designed for a maximum permissible weight of up to 130 kg, which is indicative of its robust construction.

The e-bike is fitted with Shimano MT200 hydraulic disc brakes, which ensure reliable braking performance. The gear system, also from Shimano Alivio, offers nine gears and is complemented by the matching gear lever, enabling precise and smooth gear changes. The SR Suntour XCM ATB fork, with 80 mm of travel, is adjustable and ensures comfort on a wide variety of surfaces.

Herrmans LED lights are fitted: the H-Black MR4 at the front and the H-Trace at the rear, which ensure good visibility. The spec is rounded off by MTB pedals with reflectors, an aluminium crankset and a Shimano HG200 sprocket. Power is transmitted via a KMC X9 chain.

The aluminium touring handlebars and the adjustable 110 mm stem provide an ergonomic riding position. The 25 mm wide aluminium rims and Schwalbe Smart Sam tyres (54-584) are ideal for a wide variety of riding conditions. The Shimano TX505 front and rear hubs are fitted with quick-release mechanisms.

The Selle Royal Vivo saddle and the Concept EX aluminium seatpost contribute to riding comfort. Practical details such as plastic mudguards with edge protection and a MIK Rear Carrier luggage rack round off the specification.

At the heart of the bike is the Bosch Performance Line Smart System motor, delivering 36 V / 250 W of power and 75 Nm of torque, supported by a 500 Wh Li-ion battery. The Bosch Intuvia 100 display with LED remote offers user-friendly controls and an overview of ride data.

The frame geometry, with a seat tube length of 550 mm, a top tube of 651 mm and a head tube angle of 71 degrees, ensures a balanced riding position. Other dimensions, such as the 73-degree seat tube angle, a chainstay length of 494 mm and a wheelbase of 1214 mm, contribute to the bike’s stability and agility. With these features, the “ENTICE 3.B MOVE” offers a well-thought-out all-round package for the discerning cyclist.
