The Aventon Soltera is a budget friendly, simple city-bike style that performs well and looks good. With a 350W motor, this Class 2 bike isn't the most...

A light, efficient, affordable city electric bike. This option includes a basic Shimano Tourney 7-speed drivetrain and Tektro mechanical disc brakes with 160mm rotors. Efficient 350 watt hub motor and 350 watt hour removable battery pack.
Available in two frame styles: High-Step and Mid-Step, two frame sizes each, and three colors each. Lots of options to get the correct fit and a unique style. Outstanding integrated lights including their position, brightness, and brake activation.
One of the best display panels and smart phone apps I've seen for any electric bike. The button pad is easy to reach and includes a dedicated lights button, the large color LCD is intuitive to navigate and includes a settings menu, the app allows you to adjust the top speed and engage in a social feed to share rides and pictures.
Rigid aluminum frame with no suspension and narrow tires means it's efficient but also jarring to ride on bumpy terrain. Opportunities to improve include additional bottle cage mounts, a derailleur guard, tougher display screen, wider gear range, and faster motor activation... or the option to change power delivery since it ramps up very gradually.

A new lightweight and lightly-powered e-bike from Aventon, the all new Soltera is the California-based company’s entry into the budget-priced electric city bike category. In this Aventon Soltera review we dive into the nitty gritty details of this brand new e-bike and put it to the test to see how it performs in the real […]
We love the Soltera’s fixie-like looks. It’s sleek, hip and very stealthy. IF you don’t know to look for the hub motor or outline of the battery, it’s hard to even tell it’s an e-bike.
The 41 lb weight is refreshingly light, keeping the bike feeling snappy and surprisingly quick uphill.
The 36V, 10 Ah battery is larger than many in its class, giving the bike one of the longer ranges of any single speed budget city bikes we’ve reviewed.
The option to get the bike with a 7-speed drivetrain is going to make this bike appealing to a far broader audience than if it was sold exclusively as a single speed.
There are several features that have trickled down from the more expensive Aventon Aventure, such as the inset rear taillights and the full color LCD display.
Keep in mind this bike’s motor size. It’s not necessarily a con, but some riders are going to want an e-bike with a little more oomph. Others will like the Soltera’s traditional bicycle-like feel.
Like the fixies it emulates, there are no racks or fenders that come stock with the Soltera.
