2024 Aventon

Aventure 2

The Aventure has always been a ton of fun, but the upgrade to a torque sensor now makes the ride feel more natural and better than ever. Aggressive or relaxed pedallers alike will appreciate the bike’s ability to meet you where you’re at.

Torque sensors also help deliver the right amount of power in any situation – this is particularly handy when riding on looser terrain or encountering hills.

The 750 watt motor hits the perfect sweet spot of being powerful but not overwhelming with how the bike distributes speed.

The stability is amongst the best in this price range and style – it feels rock-solid when riding and handles higher speeds better than most.

It has accessories and range to make it your daily commuter, and the power and aggressive knobby tire tread for “aventuring.”

Looks will always be subjective, but it’s still one of our favorite-looking fat bikes with sleek battery integration, and four different color options to choose from across the highstep and ST frames.

The newly designed rear rack fits the aesthetic better and is compatible with a bunch of handy accessories.

The gearing ratio feels better than ever thanks to the upgrade from a 46t to 48t chainring. This eliminated ‘ghost pedaling’ at higher class 3 speeds that could be felt on the first Aventure.

It’s a very safe bike thanks to the stopping power of the Tektro HD-E350

Speaking of safety…the addition of a second brake light on the chainstays makes you more visible and gives the ability to activate those as turn signals alerting riders behind you where you’re headed.

Aventon includes a handy app for enhanced metrics and building a community if you’d like to geek out with fellow Aventon riders. It’s a bonus that you don’t have to use the app if you don’t want to.

The Shimano Altus is technically a downgrade from the previously equipped Shimano Acera. To be fair, we didn’t have any real complaints about the shifting across the 160 miles we logged on the Aventure 2 we reviewed though.

Imitation is the sincerest form of flattery, and the Aventon Aventure has been imitated (ok, a better word is probably copied) several times the last 2-3 years. With so much competition and brands creating 26” x 4” fat tire ebikes, I was surprised at how the Aventure.2 not only still holds its own vs the competition but is still one of, if not the, best rear hub fat tire electric bikes.

If I’m going to sum this e-bike up in a word, that word is versatility. Few e-bikes are as capable at going offroad as they are at making daily commutes. Thanks to a remarkably stable ride and solid feel, this is one fat-tire e-bike that can handle Class 3 speeds (28 mph maximum pedal assist) and leave the rider feeling confident. It has a 400-lb. weight limit. I’ve put some big riders on it, and anyone who is upward of 250 lbs. should consider this e-bike. The aluminum alloy frame offers terrific stiffness.

The torque sensor is one of the big highlights of this e-bike; it’s one of the biggest upgrades compared to the previous version. It gives the Aventure.2 a more dialed feel. More pressure on the pedals means more power from the motor. It gives the e-bike a more natural feel and a better experience overall than compared to a cadence sensor. A torque sensor allows you to regulate your own speed by pedal pressure alone.

The combination of fat tires, good saddle shape, wide bar with both sweep and rise and a suspension fork make this an unusually comfortable e-bike. When people try this e-bike they comment on how comfortable it is. See Latest Price
