As well as the premium Kalkhoff brand sold by 50cycles, Derby Cycle produce a range of different bicycle brands at their factory in Cloppenburg, Germany, including Rixe, Focus, & Raleigh. The firm now builds six times as many e-bikes as they did only a couple of years ago and now leads the way in their development.
One of our proudest achievements at 50cycles has been to introduce these magnificent machines to cyclists in the UK. They're good-looking, tough, reliable, fast, efficient hill-climbers that go for miles and miles. Kalkhoff owners love their bikes. Some of them have even written and called to tell us how much!
