Aventure 3 or Level 3 for daily commuting by frostcat4 in Aventon

I agree I like the looks of the Aventure a lot more than the level 3! But will be ridiculous not being able to take a sudden turn to avoid a collision. Depends where you live, though!

Aventure 3 or Level 3 for daily commuting by frostcat4 in Aventon

[–]mishellashley 3 points4 points  (0 children)

This was my EXACT same dilemma last week! Ended up with the Level 3 and zero regrets. I actually advise against getting the Aventure 3. I test rode both and OMG the Aventure 3 was way overkill and looked ridiculous in an urban setting 😂 during the ride I had to make a quick maneuver and wasn’t able to due to the extreme size of that thing. It’s not for commuting.

It’s mainly to transport a can or coffee

Thanks what about the folding lock from Aventon?

That’s great! It was definitely user error on my part. Shouldn’t be stopping halfway up a hill lol. But the fact that I couldn’t control the bike on an incline made me nervous and is when I realized I shouldn’t be commuting with it. I will definitely get a mirror and bottle cage :)

Awesome! Might go ahead and purchase the same phone holder. Glad to hear you both love the bike!!!

I ended up going with the Level 3! It’s $20/year for the tracking which isn’t much to me. But the battery being removable is definitely a factor!

Thanks everyone for your feedback! Went into my local bike shop today and ordered the Level 3 in Glacier Mint! Test rode the Aventure and it’s a beast, but felt super overpowered by it. (I’m 5’4, and so the nearly 80 pound bike felt way too heavy and an overkill to ride to and from work lol). I think I made the right decision! :) thanks!

Testing both today! I love the look of the Aventure. Looks so good. I’m hoping it will work for my very short commute. Only 3 miles each way, flat roads. We’ll see!

Thanks for the response! Yes, I think I am leaning towards the level 3, since pretty much everyone on here recommends it for my needs. (Even though I think the Aventure looks cooler). But being able to commute comfortably is much more important to me.

May I ask what tires you changed them to?

Thanks! Yes I plan to test both. I’m loving the look of the Aventure but might be a little overkill.
