Aventon Aventure Step Over Electric Bike

Really happy with this bike and the service from Electric Kicks. I was worried about getting a 'legal' e-bike and thought it wouldn't be as fun but I am very impressed with the power of this bike, the quality and the range.

Loving my new bike. Lots of technology and very smooth ride 👌

Happy with the product and service

The bike is amazing

The delivery was terrible and I still can’t register my bike through the app

10/10 bike. Juan @ Electric kicks was really helpful and gave me a lot of insight into the different products available. They also were able to apply a discount plus a 12 month warranty for my e bike.

Extremely great bike. It’s larger than you think. Easy to put together

I’m a 52 year old big fat bloke who hasn’t ridden a bike in 20 years and had a knee replacement 12 weeks ago. This Aventure 3 is an amazing bike. So easy to pedal and so much fun. The gps security features along with the alarm and the bike disturbance alerts give great peace of mind. The missus was a bit annoyed when I shelled out for it…she had her first go today and is now talking about getting one for herself. The only downside is that it’s a heavy bike, but that’s par for the course with the stability and comfort of fat tyre bikes. Despite its weight it’s definitely not a sluggish bike, and squirts along quite well. The range is as advertised or probably even a little better. I got the stealth step over in a large, and it looks amazing. Zero regrets.

Great service and love my new e bike

Received my bike recently and I’m delighted with it. It’s all it’s advertised to be and certainly meets my requirements.
Great product and would highly recommend this bike!

This is such a great bike I was so happy with it when assembled which was effortless I ordered another a week later, the only thing is it did not come with a adapter to plug the Wall

Very happy with the purchase!

The Aventon Step Through Bike is great, especially for a short (149cm) person. A great looking bike too, very solid. I wish it had indicators, like Hubby’s Aventon bike. Simple to put together (I watched hubby 😅). Highly recommend!

Ordered my Aventure 2 from Electric kicks on a Friday mid morning, received the bike from couriers on the same day - very happy customer. Putting the bike together is simple, 30 mins max. I agonized over the Aventure 2 or the Level 2, as I wasn't sure if the fat tyre look was a bit "Over the top" for a middle aged rider, but the deal on the Aventure 2 from Electric Kicks was very attractive and the Level 2 wasn't in stock and now I've done 300 KM, its actually an amazing looking bike, everyone wants to talk to me about it.

PRO's
1. Fast - Like super fast on top pedal assist and powerful for hills , but also excellent brakes, I've never had brakes this good on a bicycle.
2. Torque sensor is so much better than cadence, just feels like a normal bike except ridden by Tour De France winner.
3. Looks great in the Green step over version.
4. Battery distance is solid, I've done 60 KM rides using assist the whole way with big hills thrown in, no problems
5. Carrying capacity and inclusions of Rack, Lights, Mudgaurds etc, makes this a true all rounder, I commute on weekdays and ride trails on the weekends. It looks like an offroader, but those tyres at about 15 - 20PSI are great for the rubbish roads/ bike tracks in Melbourne. Its not a mountain bike though - know your limitations - lite trails ang Gravel tracks are perfect.
6. I'm only a month into ownership, but research shows they are very reliable
7. Throttle really handy for starting at traffic lights or hills
8. Compared to hybrid or commuting bikes from the top end suppliers, who are asking 4 - 6 grand, your saving a lot. Yes 2 grand is as lot for a bicycle, but 4 - 6 grand is decent second hand motorbike money.

CONS's
1. Everyone wants to ask about it when out riding, not for introverts - you just don't see any out and about - In Melbourne anyway.
2. Hard to ride with no pedal assist. I find the lowest level - ECO is the sweet spot - I still get exercise and can really go fast. Just use Eco mode and your gears as per normal and you forget your on an e-bike
3. You'll always get stuck behind regular riders on bike paths, you get up to 30 KM so fast and with so little effort and forget most regular riders are peaking at 25KM
4. Bike is heavy, not an issue to ride as its well powered, but not sure a regular bike carrier on a car could handle it.
5. Not an issue for me, but technically illegal in some states -with 250w limits - this puts out 3 times that - buyer beware.
6. To go with point 5, due to its power you wont find an insurer to insure it - so trust your bike lock, take the battery out when you leave it parked.

Overall very satisfied customer with Electric Kicks and the Aventure 2. if all goes well will get another possibly the step through version for my wife. If your hesitating in your purchase decision - DONT.

WOW what a bike,very well built and performs better than what I expected,great service and quick delivery,packaging of the bike excellent,arrived with no damage whatsoever,will buy from the guys at Electric Kicks again,very very happy this way thanks David A+

So my bike arrived faster than predicted, Friday instead of the Monday according to tracking, which was great. Unfortunately the screen stopped working after about 1 minute and basic troubleshooting did nothing.
Support was engaged and although a replacement screen was eventually sent, the support via email was longer than it should have been as I clearly explained the fault, and troubleshooting steps I had performed up front. Support was not bad, just could be better.
New screen arrived and was swapped onto bike, which did the trick.
The Bike.
What a great bike. Well balanced, lovely to ride, comfortable seat, nice controls.
The gears are great.
I did get a E25 error on my first ride, which was frustrating, but after some fluffing around (turn off bike, turn back on a few times) it went away and i was able to ride home with power. Aventon have pretty good support pages on their site and I was able to adjust brake sensor sensitivity very easily which fixed the issue.
The front brake is sometimes noisy, but I'll live with that for now as it's probably another easy adjustment I need to make. But the bike itself, great. Levels of pedal assist are fantastic, power provided is smooth, and throttle works brilliantly. You can switch between power assist and throttle at will while riding, which is great for "cheating" when you want a break from pedalling. On steep hills you need to boost power assist and be mindful of gear selection as it did not offer as much assist to my 96kg old body as I thought it would. But that was quite steep. Otherwise, power is plentiful and the bike is a pure joy to ride.
Will be getting the missus a step through one as soon as I have enough coins put aside.
All in all, a very, very nice quality bike I am extremely happy with after the initial frustration of being shipped one with a dud screen.
Would recommend.

The Aventure 2: My Best E-Bike Experience So Far

I've had the chance to ride several e-bikes, including the Pace and Level 2 (both fantastic!), but the Aventure 2 is the best e-bike I've ridden so far. Its combination of style and reliability makes it perfect for commuting, as well as for riding on different surfaces like gravel.

Customer Service Experience
I had a great experience with customer service when I wanted to use an alternative payment method instead of my credit card. Juan Onatef was extremely helpful in resolving the issue, and everything was handled smoothly. I also reached out via the chat feature on the website and received prompt assistance from Alyssa, which was another positive experience.

The Bike
The Aventure 2 is impressive. I've also tried the Pace 300 and Level 2, and this brand continues to prove itself as the best for e-bikes. They're solid, reliable, powerful, and stylish.

For my needs, the Aventure 2 is perfect. It’s comfortable for commuting and performs exceptionally well on non-paved roads thanks to its sturdy build, flat wheels, and powerful motor. I highly recommend it!

If it didn't keep turning the mode to off giving you no assist it would be a great bike. Check where you can get them repaired you might have to travel hundreds of klms to do that. Also check the aventon pages cause getting replacement parts in the USA will take 4-6 weeks so heaven knows how long to get here.Overall due to all these factors i would not recommend or purchase again. Very disappointed. Electric Kicks are great to deal with not their fault just got a Lemon.

The Aventon Adv2 is a brilliant all-rounder with top notch performance and endurance, head turning but non-ostentatious presentation, and an outstanding value package. I was impressed by the innovative and sustainable packaging it arrived in (a week earlier than expected) and the easy assembly instruction video. On arrival the bike had a defective rear tube - but Electric Kicks promptly reimbursed me for the expense of repair and replacement. Very happy with the experience and the bike.

Great experience dealing with electric kicks from the beginning to the end. Delivered within 36hrs, lots of useful information and tips, great communication and support.

After 600km commuting to work over the last 3 weeks this bike has not skipped a beat. Very solid build, no sqeeaks or rattles, it's a smooth and comfortable ride. Plenty of power to get me to and from work effortlessly with loads of torque from the throttle and power behind the pedal assist. Breaks are very responsive and powerful. Can get 30km from 1 battery charger with little assistance. If I can get a spare battery I think I'll get many years of reliable use out of it.
Couldn't be happier. Thanks for the great bike and service.

Delivery time really bad. Easy to set up, really impressed. Top bike and up to expectation’s. Everyone that looks at the bike loves it. Next model should have rear suspension.
Thanks.

Seamless order and overall very happy with purchase. Two minor issues, computer mount was missing screw and shifter gear indicator was missing.

Minor but took some of gloss off purchase

I had watched several unboxings of the Aventure 2, so no problems there. Very easy to assemble, charged the battery, I got worried when the blue battery light started to pulsate, I thought I was charging the battery while it was switched on. There is no mention in the book of that light so I rang you to find out that is normal. I cannot believe how well it performs. I'm 77 old, I did try tourer mode but it goes to fast so I only use eco mode. In eco mode I can achieve 47kmh quite easily. I can't see why I will need spot or turbo. If I need to cross a busy road I do use the accelerator then back to eco mode. I find the bike very easy to handle, I don't find it heavy as some reviewers have stated. Best value for money. Finally, very very happy.

My first e-bike, and so far it’s performed flawlessly. Heaps of power for those windy days and enough let off to get a decent workout. Primarily used as a commuter, it eats up the 42k journey into work with ease. Standard mud guards and rear rack are a great addition. I would recommend a his bike.

Love it. I got the 150kg to 200kg version was hoping for a little more power for them hills. But it does the job for riding on flat to little hills.

Great bike, handles bush tracks and bitumen equally well. Love it!

Really happy, but I would have preferred a twist throttle on the right side of the handlebar! Please don’t send any advertising to me.

Haven’t road a bike with pedals for 30 years, am able to ride a lot further than I thought, this thing just constantly surprises me how good it is and how much fun I’m having on it
