Level Up With the New Aventon Level.2
The Level.2 has only just been launched and has already been dubbed Aventon’s best eBike to date by Electric Bike Report. The Level.2 presents an exciting opportunity for Australia’s commuters by being practical, efficient, fast, & tooled up with great features that make riding the Level.2 an experience in its own right.
If you’ve been seeking an electric bike to tackle your commute, but have found the prices on the wrong side of expensive, the Aventon Level.2 is for you. You’ll find the same, if not better performance, & technology to match at a lower price than you’d expect.
Features
Power
The Level.2 Step Through comes with a 500W rear hub motor that can actually produce a peak of 750W. This puts the Level.2 as one of the more powerful eBikes in the Aventon Range. Riders won’t struggle for power regardless of their route.
Speed
This motor can power the ride to a top speed of 32 kph when using the throttle on its own, or 45 using pedal assist.
Hill Climb Ability
Like most of the Aventon range, the Level.2 comes with impressive hill climb ability. Not only can it get up most hills in throttle-only mode with an average speed of around 10-15kph, but on pedal assist level 5, you’ll be able to get over any incline significantly faster.
Torque Sensor
While torque sensors aren’t a new concept, this is the first time an Aventon eBike has come equipped with one. These work by measuring how much effort you are putting into pedalling as opposed to how fast you pedal, and it will dynamically adjust its power output to compliment your current riding style. It produces a ride that feels much more intuitive, natural & fluid.
Default Accessories
You can expect front fenders, rear fenders, front & rear lights, and a rear rack all as standard on the Level.2 Step Through. This means that despite the Level.2’s higher price point compared to its siblings, you actually get more for your money.
Throttle
For the Level.2, the throttle has been upgraded to remove the lag found on earlier models. This makes the eBike more responsive. This throttle can also be disabled with the Aventon app, or removed entirely if required.
Frame
You’ll find a double-butted aluminium frame for the Level 2 Step Through, which gives riders exceptional stability. Weighing in at 24kg, the ride produced feels solid, and the bike feels responsive.
Level Up Your Commute
The Level.2 Step Through is designed with commuters in mind, and a healthy middle-ground of the Aventon range. While not as light as the Soltera, you get better hill-climb ability & more power. While not as fast as the Aventure, it weighs significantly less, and the difference in speed isn’t that much. Everything about the Level.2 has been designed to make commuting easier, faster, & more comfortable.
Solve The Commuter Conundrum
Buying a commuter eBike is hard in Australia, notably because it’s hard to know what’s a good price. Other brands produce some great eBikes but at a price point that makes your eyes water. In most cases, affordable e-Bikes make sacrifices that, on paper, seem fine, but can negatively impact your ride. You’ll lack power, or you’ll get an uncomfortable ride, or you’ll find your range limited, or you’ll get stuck on hills. To get what you want, you’ll find yourself tossing up whether $5,000 for an e-Bike is really worth it just to get to work & back.
With the Aventon Level.2, you don’t get that. You get a powerful motor that’ll never leave you wanting for speed. You get a torque sensor to give you a natural ride that compliments your ability, which is something you’ll never find on an e-Bike of this level at this price. You get hydraulic brakes, front suspension, an integrated & removable battery, and a colour LCD screen that shows you how many trees you’ve saved. And that’s not even mentioning the built-in accessories & attachments, & integrated front & rear lights
What the Level.2 represents is more than just a commuter e-Bike. It represents a relative first for Australian commuters - a top-tier commuter e-Bike at mid-tier prices, and that alone makes it one of the most valuable e-Bikes available today.
Please note: The new Aventon Level.2 electric bike no longer has the quick-release for its front axle. It features a regular thru-axle which can be tightened with an allen wrench.
