Kalkhoff looks back on a long history. Bicycles have been manufactured and sold under the Kalkhoff brand name since 1919.
Powered by the Bosch Performance Line motor along with a 500Wh battery the Kalkhoff Endeavour 1.B Move is the perfect ebike to conquer those long commutes and steep hills. The Bosch battery will assist you up to 110km and the quality of the Kalkhoff ebike makes it a pleasure to ride.
Unlike most ebikes of this genre that have aggressive road geometry, the Kalkhoff Endeavour 1.B Move caters more towards comfort with its geometry without compromising on its agility and sportiness. As you would expect from a German-made bike its componentry is high quality and perfectly matched for the work it is designed to do and is rated to carry an impressive 130kg. The Shimano MT200 Hydraulic disc brakes provide strong, safe braking (even under wet conditions) and the 28" wheelset is strong and fast rolling. This is complemented by slightly wider tyres for extra traction and comfort. Then Endeavour 1.B Move is conveniently equipped with all the extras you need - mudguards, chainguard, kickstand, rear rack and lights that are fully powered by the Bosch battery. This is a great ebike if you appreciate quality, reliability and all-round riding fun.
On the Kalkhoff Endeavour 1.B Move, you can feel relaxed and cheerful as you ride, instead of sweaty and stressed, whether you are rushing to work or on a sporty weekend ride. The simple operation and low-maintenance reliability of the Bosch system, makes every ride a delight. While others may marvel at your unbelievable energy, you can delight in the enormously long-lasting Bosch battery. That’s more than enough for a spontaneous detour to your favourite cafe.

What is the maximum weight for Kalkhoff bicycles and e-bikes?
The total permissible weight of our bikes is 130 kg. Bikes with “XXL” and “Plus+” in their names even offer you a load capacity of up to 170 kg. The total permissible weight is calculated using the following formula: Weight of bike + weight of cyclist + weight of additional load = 130 kg or 170 kg
How far can I get on my battery charge?
There is no universal answer to this question. There are many different factors that can affect the range. These include, for example, the assistance level, your cycling behaviour, your weight, the tyre pressure and the ground conditions.
Do I need to run down the battery completely before I charge it up again?
No. Most batteries contain lithium-ion cells and can be charged for as little time as you like. Interruptions will not damage the batteries either.
How do I charge my battery?
You can charge your battery for as little time as you like, no matter what its current charge is. Interruptions will not damage the battery either. In other words, there is no memory effect. However, you should definitely make sure that you only use the correct charging device.
Can the battery be removed from the frame?
Yes, you can remove all batteries from the frame.
What does maximum torque mean?
The torque (measured in Newton metres “Nm”) describes the rotation effect (or torsion) resulting from the application of force, e.g., pedalling. If you compare motors with torques of 75 Nm and 40 Nm, a stationary start at 75 Nm is significantly faster and more pleasant than at 45 Nm. This does not include the watt output from the battery. Ultimately, the higher the maximum torque, the better the acceleration.
What is walk assist?
Some manufacturers insist that walk assist should only be used when you want to push your bike. It is easily activated using an external switch or button. This is generally on the handlebars of your e-bike. As a result, it is not necessary to pedal in order to move the e-bike.
