Kalkhoff Entice 18 Trapez – Comfortable trekking bike for everyday use & tours

The Kalkhoff Entice 18 Trapez is a versatile trekking bike that impresses with its robust construction, well-thought-out features, and high level of comfort. With its Trekking 1.6 aluminum frame , it combines stability and durability – ideal for everyday use, weekend trips, or extended tours. Thanks to a maximum permissible load of 130 kg, the Entice 18 is also perfectly suited for carrying luggage or for heavier riders.

Comfort & control on any terrain

The SR Suntour XCM LO suspension fork with 80 mm of travel provides noticeable damping on gravel, forest paths, or cobblestones. It is complemented by ergonomic Ergon GC10 grips and an adjustable stem that allows for a customized riding position – sporty or upright, as desired. The combination of a Selle Royal Vivo saddle and a Magix aluminum seatpost offers lasting comfort, even on longer rides.

Reliable Shimano components

Precise shifting is ensured by the 18-speed Shimano Alivio drivetrain in combination with Acera shifters , guaranteeing smooth and rapid gear changes. The Shimano HG53 drivetrain and the robust Acera crankset ensure long-lasting performance and efficient power transfer in every riding situation.

Security day and night

The Shimano MT200 hydraulic disc brakes offer strong, controllable braking performance – even in wet conditions. The Herrmans H-Black MR4 LED front light and the H-Trace LED rear light ensure optimal visibility in traffic. The Shimano hub dynamo provides reliable power for the lighting system, eliminating the need for battery changes.

Well-thought-out trekking design

With RODI TRYP25 rims , Schwalbe Smart Sam tires (54-584) and a Snap-IT luggage rack , the Entice 18 is perfectly designed for everyday use and touring. Mudguards with edge protection, aluminum pedals with anti-slip coating and quick-release axles on both hubs complete the functional package.
