Outing Highlights
Kalkhoff City M — Built for Comfortable Urban Miles
A 28-inch Kalkhoff with an 8-speed hub, Bosch Active Line+ motor and a 500 Wh battery pairs modest power with practical features—coaster brake and puncture-protection tires—so city streets and light terrain feel steady and reliable.
Extra Push for Normal Terrain
Designed for town riding and ‘normales Terrain,’ the City M gives 'extra Rückenwind'—predictable, wind-assisted support suited to urban routes rather than technical off-road trails.
Local Rental Flexibility
Operated by BIKE FÜSSEN - Fahrradverleih, the City M is offered for comfortable rental use with options that can extend to multiple days—making it convenient for visitors who want to explore Füssen at an unhurried pace.
