The Bukk starts here
CAKE, the Swedish maker of premium lightweight, electric motorcycles, has announced the birth of the CAKE Enduro Factory Team and welcomed its first two riders, Swedes Emelie Dahl and Robert Kvarnström as the start of what will be an expanding international team.
The CAKE Enduro Team is set to participate in a few enduro races in 2023 on the recently launched Bukk, building a solid infrastructure for a full-force international debut in Spring 2024 - when enduro and off-road races are planned across Europe and USA.
"It feels amazing to finally start racing for CAKE. After the first Bukk test days, Emelie and I are confident, and our sole ambition is to simply win the races we're participating in," says Robert Kvarnström, CAKE Enduro team leader. "Previous Kalk races have been met with different emotions from other race participants, and to continue racing for real is equally exciting and important to be able to influence a large portion of the moto community.
"People need to understand that motor power does not necessarily equate to fast lap times and this will become evident."
Kvarnström emphasizes the importance of electric, lightweight, and nimble motorcycles with powerful acceleration as key elements shaping the future of the sport. "This will be an eye-opener for many, including myself. We are faster on these machines in several formats and conditions, and it creates many new racing opportunities."
Stefan Ytterborn, CEO & Founder of CAKE added that "with the mission to accelerate towards a zero-emission society, combining excitement with responsibility, the racing scene has huge potential. This initiative is crucial to have the ability to beat traditional motorcycles on their home-turf, become a clear start-point for consumers to look at, consider and eventually getting their first electric racing machine."
The CAKE Factory Team will race the Bukk Power Light. Bukk is the newest addition to the CAKE line-up and developed to be the lightest competitive enduro bike on the market. For more information about the CAKE Enduro Team and its upcoming races, visit:
