The Kalkhoff Image 3 Excite is a versatile electric city bike that brings comfort and ease of use together. With a powerful motor and low-maintenance belt drive, it is an ideal choice for your daily rides around town or leisurely trips through the countryside.
Comfortable frame and powerful pedal assist
The sturdy aluminium frame of the Image 3 Excite city e-bike makes for composed and predictable handling in heavy traffic. The geometry lets you sit upright and maintain a good overview of your surroundings. The Bosch Performance Line motor is located at the centre of the bike, contributing to a low centre of gravity and a natural feel. The 600 Wh battery gives you a great range for long rides without having to charge frequently.
Low-maintenance belt drive and safe brakes
This bike uses a Gates carbon belt drive, which will last longer than a traditional chain and requires very little maintenance. It works with the Shimano Nexus 5-speed hub system to let you shift gears smoothly even when stopped at traffic lights. To come to a safe stop in any scenario, you use the hydraulic disc brakes, which provide consistent braking power and are easy to modulate to make you feel confident while cycling on wet or slippery roads.
Complete equipment for everyday convenience
The remaining components complete the Kalkhoff Image 3 Excite city e-bike for frequent use and a comfortable ride. The suspension fork and seatpost absorb vibrations and shocks from bad road surfaces or bumps well, and the wide Schwalbe tyres offer high grip and low rolling resistance on asphalt. The bright LED lights make you highly visible to other road users in the dark, and the sturdy luggage rack is compatible with panniers so you can easily carry groceries or a laptop bag on the bike.
