Aventon Aventure Ebike Review: Budget-conscious but Bold

These days, many ebikes make no secret of their electric support. The Aventon Aventure is one such model, designed for rough roads, country trails, plus a little mountain biking (or alternately, antiquing) on the side. It's a heavy-duty ebike that includes some very considerate design touches.

Yet the Aventon Aventure is aggressively priced at $1,899. That's only a couple of hundred above the bargain messenger bikes currently flooding the market, and it's nearly $1,000 less than some of its direct competitors, such as the Biktrix Stunner. Moreover, Aventon includes a controller with a clear color display and connected smartphone app for tracking your sojourns. Throw in a powerful battery and some wardrobe saving wide fenders to cover its 4-inch fat tires, and the Aventon Aventure presents an attractive package.
