CAKE Kalk&: Everything You Need to Know
The street Kalk, not the Kalk OR. A French sheet prints 10 kW, +90 km/h, and 62 kg plus 17 kg. An Orlando shop still asks $14,300 and prints +56 mph. The maker filed for bankruptcy on 1 February 2024.

The short answer
The street Kalk& is not the off-road Kalk. The French sheet shows 10 kW, 42 Nm at the motor, 252 Nm at the wheel, and a 51.8-volt 50-amp-hour pack labeled 2.6 kWh. Travel Country still posts $14,300 with the fee inside it. Mixed range is 83 km on the sheet and 51 miles at the shop.
The CAKE Kalk& is the street dual-sport, not the Kalk OR. A French specification sheet prints 10 kW, 42 Nm at the motor, 252 Nm at the wheel, +90 km/h, a 51.8-volt 50-amp-hour pack labeled 2.6 kWh, and 62 kg plus a 17 kg battery. Travel Country Outfitters in Orlando still lists the name at $14,300, with +56 mph, 10 kW, 13.5 hp, 137 lb plus 37 lb, and 51 miles mixed. CAKE 0 Emission AB went into bankruptcy on 1 February 2024. A Swedish recap checked 12 August 2026 still could not verify a current Swedish price for Kalk. The row on this desk’s list links here.
The French sheet, and the Orlando tag
French Kalk& sheet versus Travel Country’s Orlando listing, still showing a 25 September 2026 ship line and a $200 fee already inside $14,300. Pickup or local delivery only. Ninety km/h is 55.9 mph, so the speed pair agrees. The range sentences do not.
| French sheet | Orlando shop | |
|---|---|---|
| Power | 10 kW. 42 Nm motor. 252 Nm at the wheel. | 10 kW, and a 13.5 hp bullet. 10 kW is 13.4 hp. |
| Speed | +90 km/h | +56 mph |
| Pack | 51.8 V, 50 Ah, labeled 2.6 kWh | Not printed as volts on that page. |
| Mass | 62 kg plus 17 kg | 137 lb plus 37 lb. 62 kg is 137 lb. 17 kg is 37 lb. |
| Range | 83 km mixed city, WMTC-II. Trail / enduro 3 hours. | 51 miles mixed. 22 miles at high speed. |
| Charge | 0–80% in 2 hours. 0–100% in 3 hours. | “Battery charges in 3 hours.” |
| Seat | 910 mm unladen | 36.83 in, which is 935 mm |
| Price | No dollar on that sheet | $14,300, fee included, not a national MSRP |
Fifty-one point eight times 50 is 2,590 watt-hours. The sheet’s 2.6 kWh label is that product rounded, not a second pack. Eighty-three kilometers is 51.6 miles, so the mixed-city claim and the shop’s 51 miles are the same neighborhood. The shop’s 22-mile high-speed line is a different sentence. Do not average it into 51. The seat is the fight the masses are not: 910 mm on the sheet, 36.83 inches at the shop. Thirty-six point eight three inches is 935 mm. The OR is the other Kalk: that guide’s sheet is 11 kW and a sold-out family card, and it is not this street bike. Thirteen point five horsepower is the shop’s way of saying 10 kW. It is not a second motor.
Plus 90 kilometers an hour and plus 56 miles an hour are one cap said twice. Nine hundred ten millimeters and 36.83 inches are not.
Who it is for
Buy it only if the bike in front of you is the street Kalk&, you have an M1 where the shop says the street use needs one, and you understand the Swedish company that designed it went through bankruptcy in February 2024. A dealer tag in Orlando is not proof the factory is building a 2026 run. It is not a Class 2 bicycle. It fails the class chart. Two point six kilowatt-hours is the watt-hour label, checked against 51.8 times 50.
Questions people ask
Do the speeds actually conflict?+
No. Plus 90 kilometers an hour is 55.9 miles an hour. The shop wrote miles. The sheet wrote kilometers. Quote either, and say which page.
Where does the seat fight sit?+
The sheet says 910 mm unladen. The shop says 36.83 inches, which is 935 mm. Masses convert: 62 kg is 137 lb and 17 kg is 37 lb. The seat does not convert.
Is $14,300 a 2026 factory MSRP?+
It is one Florida dealer’s tag, including a $200 fee, with a ship line dated 25 September 2026. A Swedish check in August 2026 still had no verified home-market Kalk price.
How is this not the OR?+
The OR sheet this desk already published is 11 kW. This street sheet is 10 kW. Same bankrupt maker, CAKE 0 Emission AB, 1 February 2024. Different bike.

CAKE Kalk OR: Everything You Need to Know
The OR sheet prints 11 kW, 52 kg plus a 17 kg pack, and +90 km/h. The lineup card is sold out. Cake filed for bankruptcy on February 1, 2024. Not the Kalk&.

What Is a Class 1, 2, and 3 E-Bike?
Class 1 is pedal-assist to 20. Class 2 adds a throttle to 20. Class 3 is pedal-assist to 28. A Tuttio is none of these. The sticker is not the trail.

Understanding Volts, Amps, and Watt-Hours
Voltage is pressure. Amps are flow. Watt-hours are the tank. The hangtag that only says 750W is selling you one of those three.
