The CAKE Ösa is the Swedish brand's answer to a question the electric mobility world rarely asks: what if a utility vehicle could also be beautiful? After turning heads with the KALK dirt bike, CAKE launched the Ösa and Ösa+ as a new category of electric bike built around a single spine frame, a modular clamp system, and a philosophy of getting things done.
What Makes the CAKE Ösa Different from Other Electric Bikes?
Most electric bikes are either performance-focused or commuter-oriented. The Ösa sits in neither camp. It is built around a 6061 aluminium monocoque frame that functions as a structural spine, with every accessory clamping directly onto it. Seats, cargo boxes, surf racks, a front platform: all attach without tools. You could configure it as a mobile workbench, a last-mile delivery vehicle, or a minimalist urban commuter, depending on the day.
The 14-inch in-house designed wheels are paired with 220mm disc brakes front and rear, keeping stopping power proportional to the performance on offer, as detailed by Electrek.
CAKE Ösa+ Specs: Two Trims, One Philosophy
The Ösa+ is available in two battery configurations. The 1.5 kWh version suits lighter urban use, while the 2.6 kWh pack pushes the range to approximately 63 miles (100 km) on a full charge. Recharging takes around three hours from empty.
Peak power output is 10 kW, with 7 kW of continuous power delivering a top speed of 100 km/h. The battery also doubles as a power source for external devices via USB ports, with an optional AC converter for powering tools up to 1,500 W. Launch pricing was set at $8,000 for the Ösa+ at introduction.
Scandinavian Design Meets Practical Engineering
CAKE was founded in Sweden with a clear design language: minimal material, maximum modularity. The Ösa is the purest expression of that ethos. There are no fairings, no hidden cables, no decorative elements. Every component has a function, and every function is visible. It is a design approach that shares more with industrial tools than with traditional motorcycles, explained in depth by Jalopnik.
