What people ask about the Aventon Current LTD
How much does it weigh?
It weighs 23.1 kg. That is 33% below the median weight for its type. So it is lighter than most mtb e-bikes. A lighter bike can be easier to handle.
How much torque does it have?
The motor torque is not listed. The median torque for its type is 80 Nm. Without a published figure, you cannot compare it directly. Check with the manufacturer if torque matters to you.
What speed class is it?
The speed class is not listed. The top speed is also not listed. You will need to confirm this before you buy. It affects where you can ride.
How far does it really go?
The manufacturer claims 168 km. Our estimate is 47 km, with a band of 41 to 52 km. That is 72% below the claim. The estimate uses a fixed reference ride: Tour assist, rolling terrain, mild weather, brisk pace, a 80 kg rider. It is not a measurement. Use the range calculator to see how your own ride might change it.
What does it cost to run?
The price is 7999 USD. That is 434% above the median for its type. Running costs depend on your electricity price and how you charge. We do not have those figures here. Try the cost calculator to work them out.
Where it falls short
The biggest issue is price. At 7999 USD it is far above the median of 1499 USD. You pay 434% more than a typical bike in this class. The battery is also 7% below the median. And the estimated range is 4% below the median. So you pay more but get less in those areas.
Who should buy it
This bike suits riders who value a lighter mtb and have the budget. It is not for everyone. Consider what you get for the price.
- You want a lighter mtb e-bike and the 23.1 kg weight is a priority.
- You are willing to pay 7999 USD for a bike that is 33% lighter than the median.
- You do not need the longest range and can accept an estimated 47 km.
Look elsewhere if you want the best value. The median price is 1499 USD. You can get a bike with a larger battery and longer estimated range for much less. Also, if you need published torque or speed class, this bike does not list them.
