An old favorite with a new look: Aventon’s Pace 500, their original and best selling electric bike, just got a face lift and a few new parts. In this Aventon Pace 500 review, we take a first-hand look at the newest generation of Aventon’s tried and trued electric cruiser bike. The Pace 500 has long […]
Company’s always risk ruining a great bike by updating them, but that’s not what Aventon did here. They made a good e-bike better by not overdoing it.
The 614.4Wh battery is now frame integrated and extended the bike’s range.
The addition of Aventon’s new full color LCD display is a really great add. It’s useful, easy to read and has some fun features we don’t see often.
Our review bike had name-brand components across the board, which was refreshing after several years of parts shortages.
It has the upright geometry of a cruiser bike but the pedalability and light handling of a commuter, making the Pace a uniquely comfortable and capable e-bike.
I love the inset tail lights. It’s a purely aesthetic thing, but seems to have become something of a signature design feature for Aventon.
Like many step-throughs I’ve reviewed, the Pace 500’s frame is geared toward smaller riders. I love step-through e-bikes, but at 6’1” the Aventon is on the smaller side for me. It would be great to see Aventon make a step-through version for taller people.

A price competitive and affordable ($1,399) yet powerful and versatile high speed ebike which aims to give more bang for your buck versus other value priced offerings
The Pace 500 features a capable electric drivetrain sporting a 20mph trigger throttle and a 28mph cadence based pedal assist, each complimented well by the stopping power of hydraulic disc brakes
A overall comfortable ride with relaxed ergonomics and thoughtful finishing touches like reflective sidewall stripe tires, also comes in a variety of size and color options for both frames
To keep the price low, some tradeoffs are to be considered, no suspension, no intergraded lights, no USB charging, but the big one to keep in mind is the assembly you may have to do on your own, however, you can always get some help from a bike shop, mobile service, or use their instructional videos
