Electric Bike Report
Aventon Level.2 E-Bike Review, 2023

Nov 2023 · Griffin Hales

If you’ve followed Aventon over the years you’ve likely noticed how its evolved in the e-bike space. Its e-bike lineup has held some crowd-pleasing favorites, and they’ve added even more diverse offerings to it, but over the last 18 months or so we’ve really seen refinement from Aventon’s e-bikes. That focus on refinement is what

Highs
  • The new torque sensor is a fundamentally different experience: the Level 2 has a much more natural bike riding feel compared to its predecessor

  • The torque sensor also helped improve battery life while keeping the same 500W motor / 672 Wh battery combo as the previous level

  • While we liked the Zoom brakes we tested on past Level models, we’re happy to see Tektro hydraulic brakes as they are reliable performers that are easier to get serviced

  • We loved the look of the blue Aventon Level 2 we reviewed, but we think all 4 color options (white, pink, blue, clay) hold a lot of visual appeal compared to the previous gray color

  • The 8-speed Shimano Acera drivetrain is as responsive as ever and provides adequate gearing for going up or down hills

  • The color display is easy to read, and the downloadable Aventon app pairs with it nicely to enhance your overall experience

  • All the contact points are performance-oriented enough for a serious commuter, while comfortable enough to warrant spending over an hour in the saddle

Lows
  • We’re fans of the torque-sensor, especially at lower PAS levels, but it does mean that higher PAS levels feel a tad tame for the high speed loving crowds.

  • Aventon prioritized battery life on the Level 2 which resulted in the bike riding not quite as hard on throttle to help preserve the battery.

Aventon Level Review

Jul 2020

Price: $1599.00 | Model Year: 2020 | The Aventon Level is a powerful and feature-rich Class 3 commuting electric bike, a new model from Aventon that is competitively priced with impressive quality components throughout

Observations
  • The Aventon Level is a powerful and feature-rich Class 3 commuting electric bike, a new model from Aventon that is competitively priced with impressive quality components throughout

  • The Shimano Acera drivetrain feels smooth with a good gear range across eight speeds, Quik Drumlin tires from Kenda are Ebike-specific with hybrid tread and puncture protection, alloy fenders and rack are durable and well built

  • Shengyi's 500 watt rear hub motor is reliable and powerful, easily accelerating the Level up to 28mph Class 3 speeds when using pedal-assist, the Level has a hybrid setup that also allows throttle activation up to 20mph

  • The SR Suntour suspension fork performs great but is coil which adds some weight, lights are not included so you'll have to add your own if riding at night, the center-mounted display has excellent visibility and good readouts but is not removable
