Why Choose the Kalkhoff Image 3 Excite?

Bosch Performance Line Smart System Motor – 75Nm

The Bosch Performance Line Smart System motor delivers smooth, natural assistance with up to 75Nm of torque. Quiet, refined, and incredibly easy to ride, it provides more than enough power for hills, headwinds, and carrying shopping or luggage while maintaining a very natural pedalling feel.

Fully Integrated 625Wh Battery

The Bosch PowerTube 625Wh battery is neatly integrated into the frame, giving the bike its clean premium appearance while still offering excellent real-world range for longer rides and daily use.

Gates Carbon Belt Drive

One of the standout features of the Image 3 Excite is its Gates Carbon Belt Drive system. Unlike a traditional chain, the belt drive is clean, quiet, and requires dramatically less maintenance. No oily chain, reduced wear, and incredibly smooth power delivery make it perfect for everyday riders.

Shimano Nexus 5-Speed Hub Gearing

The Shimano Nexus 5E hub gear system has been specifically developed for e-bike use and pairs beautifully with the Bosch motor and belt drive system. Gear changes feel smooth and intuitive, even when stationary.
