ADDITIONAL REVIEW NOTES: Perhaps the most underrated mode of transport Rewards: Easier to bike farther, with more cargo, and up bigger hills Can commute without a car and don’t get sweaty Large battery can power lights, meters, and display Can bring larger cargo such as a child seat without getting too difficult to pedal Go further and faster on your workouts Get into a city quickly and easily without traffic No parking concerns Healthier than most alternatives - reduces the barrier of biking. Further destinations can still be bikeable. With this, you are more likely to say “I’ll bike there” Looks cool You won’t get passed by a fat man on an ebike barely pedaling Downsides: Getting the bike stolen Safety at higher speeds and with heavier bike Storage/Weight - cannot carry it around Range Laws Bike does all the work, and you get no exercise Aventon solutions Lockable battery Incredible headlight Removable battery means you can have a spare if needed Removable battery means you can lock your bike at work and charge it under your desk during the day Tail lights/brake lights help others to see you on the road Walking assist mode helps you walk the bike around and up hills if it is too heavy for you Torque sensor instead of cadence sensor allows for better exercise, while not compromising the concept of an ebike (also throttle is optional) Currently a class 3, but you can adjust the speed limit in the app You can legitimately get a workout with this bike if you want to Are ebikes worth it? This is significantly more expensive than a cheap bike, but allows you to tackle large hills, go further distances, bring heavier cargo, commute to work without sweating, or get a tough workout in with more distance covered and therefore more scenery enjoyed. If you are going to get an ebike, I personally love the Aventon Level 2. Disclaimer: This video is purely based on my experiences, research, and opinions.
