The Aventure has long held a spot atop our list of e-bikes we recommend, and with the Aventure 2 improving in so many ways, it will cement its place there a while longer.
The Aventure 2 feels both familiar and new to me: a testament to how they’ve kept what worked but added meaningful additions – most notably the torque sensor. The bike feels better than ever. The motor moves with you in lockstep no matter what your preferred pace is, but the speeds achieved and hills climbed make the rider feel like it was earned and not given, even though the bike is definitely enhancing the rider’s abilities. Not to mention the efficiency it brings to the battery life – squeezing another 6-7 miles of juice out of the same battery capacity as the first Aventure in our testing – is something everybody can appreciate.
Hills are a breeze, even in lower PAS settings you’re getting actual help. It perfectly delivers the assistance people are hoping to see on hills, or you can ditch pedaling altogether with a throttle that knows how to get the job done on its own.
The Aventure’s sleek design is still one of the more eye-catching ones you’ll find. More color options, a better rear rack, and a second taillight make it feel more complete than ever before. The bike isn’t just a looker though, it feels great too. The saddle, fork, and grips keep you comfortable even on extended rides, and the 4” tires handle roads and dirt trails alike with ease.
When a bike emphatically can check the boxes of performance, comfort, value, and fun, it’s hard to find much to nitpick here – it’s just a great all-around bike. It can be used for nearly anything whether you need something for daily use around town, something to encourage you to get outside more, or be your exploring vehicle for finding parts previously unknown to you.
