GENERAL INFO

Assembly and Fit
Correct assembly and fit are essential elements to ensure your bicycling safety, performance, and comfort. Even if you have the experience, skill, and tools to complete these essential steps before your first ride, Aventon recommends having a certified, reputable bike mechanic to check your work.
NOTICE: If you do not have the experience, skill, and tools to complete assembly and fit, Aventon highly recommends having a certified, reputable bike mechanic complete these procedures as well as any future adjustments or tuning.
NOTICE: A critical aspect of assembling your bike is securing the front wheel and checking the tightness of the rear wheel axle nuts. Aventon bikes use bolted on, through axle or quick release front wheel mounting mechanism and the rear wheel is bolted on. These mechanisms may become loose or unsecured during shipment or over time. The torque and security of all wheel mounting hardware should be inspected upon arrival and on a regular basis. Both wheels need to be properly secured before operating your bike.
Mandatory Equipment and Use Locations
Before riding, ensure you have all required and recommended safety equipment and are following all laws pertaining to use an electric bike in your region. For example, these laws may specify the need for mandatory equipment, use of hand signals, and where you can ride.
Changing Components or Attaching Accessories
The use of non-original components or spare parts can jeopardize the safety of your ebike, void your warranty and, in some cases, cause your ebike to not conform with laws pertaining to your bike.
The replacement of original components or installation of third-party accessories or accessories not from Aventon explicitly recommended for your bike model is at your own risk. Using aftermarket accessories or components that have not been tested by Aventon for safety and compatibility may void your warranty, create an unsafe riding condition, damage property or your bike by Aventon, or result in serious injury or death.

Safety Check Before Each Ride

Always check the condition of your bike before you ride in addition to having regular maintenance performed. If you are unsure of how to conduct a complete check of the condition of your bike before every ride, you should consult a certified, reputable bike mechanic for assistance.
Electrical System (Applicable to Pace 500, Pace 350, Sinch, Level, Aventure)
The electrical system powers several components on your ebike that control different operating conditions and user preferences. It is critical that you familiarize yourself with all aspects of your ebike’s electrical system and check to see if it is working correctly before every ride. The front and rear brake levers contain safety power cutoff switches, which disable the hub motor’s assistance when applied, and both levers should be checked for correct operation. The throttle should provide smooth acceleration when gradually applied. If the throttle, brake lever cutoff switches, pedal assistance, or lighting are functioning abnormally, intermittently, or not working, please discontinue the use of your ebike immediately and contact the Aventon Support team for assistance.
Brakes
Ensure that the brakes and their system components are free from damage, properly secured and working correctly. When fully squeezed, both front and rear brake levers should not be touching the handlebar. Take your bike to a certified, reputable bike mechanic to have the brakes repaired if you find a problem.
Tires and Wheels
Your wheels should always spin straight and must be repaired or replaced if they wobble side to side or up and down when spinning. If your wheels become untrue or spokes loosen, which can happen with normal use, we recommend that a certified, reputable bike mechanic performs all wheel tuning and truing operations on your bike from Aventon. Do not attempt to true wheels or tighten spokes unless you have adequate knowledge, tools, and experience. Ensure the tires and inner tubes are in good working condition without any visual damage and have the correct amount of air pressure. Always replace tires and inner tubes with punctures, cuts, or damage before you ride. Tires without the correct amount of air pressure can reduce performance, increase tire and component wear, and make riding your bike unsafe.

Accessories, Straps, and Hardware

Ensure all hardware is secured and all approved accessories are properly attached per the specific component manufacturer’s instructions. It is good practice to look over all hardware, straps, and accessories before each ride and if you do discover something wrong or something that you are not sure about, have it checked by a certified, reputable bike mechanic.
Suspension, Handlebar, Grips, and Seat Adjustments
The suspension fork on your ebike will affect the handling of the bike so you must understand how it works before use. The suspension fork should be properly adjusted according to your weight and terrain. Ensure the handlebar and handlebar stem are properly aligned, fitted to the user, and secured to their recommended torque values. Handlebar grips should not move easily on the handlebar end. Loose, worn, or damaged handlebar grips should be replaced before you ride. The seat and seatpost should be properly aligned, fitted to the user, and the seatpost quick release should be properly tightened, fully closed, and secured before riding.
Battery Charged, Secured, and Unplugged
Ensure the battery is adequately charged and operating properly. Ensure the battery charger is unplugged from the outlet, battery, then stored in a safe location before you ride. The battery MUST be locked onto the frame battery mount properly before use. Do not operate the electrical system if the battery is removed Make sure push hard enough while installing the battery into the frame, and hear the “CLICK” sound.

As with a regular bike, an ebike used in wet conditions needs more frequent maintenance to prevent rust, corrosion, etc. and to ensure all systems are working safely.
  • In public places, your bike from Aventon Bikes must be parked in accordance with local rules and regulations.
  • Locking up your bike is recommended to ensure your bike is secure and the chance of theft is reduced. Aventon Bikes makes no claims or recommendations on the proper lock hardware or procedures to secure your bike, but we do recommend you take appropriate precautions to keep your bike safe from theft.
  • Do not park, store, or transport your bike from Aventon Bikes on a vehicle rack not designed for the bike’s size and weight.
  • Use a vehicle rack compatible with the width of tires used on your bike. Some racks may not accommodate all tire widths.
  • When carrying your bike on a vehicle rack for transport, unlock and remove the battery. This will reduce the weight of the bike, make lifting and loading easier, and allow you to protect the battery by transporting it in the cab of a vehicle.
  • Avoid transporting bikes from Aventon Bikes on a vehicle rack during rain, as this may cause water damage to the electrical components.

Your cables, spokes, and chain will stretch after an initial break-in period of 50-100 mi (80-160 km), and bolted connections can loosen. Always have a certified, reputable bike mechanic perform a tune-up on your Aventure after your initial break-in period of 50-100 mi (80-160 km) (depending on riding conditions such as total weight, riding characteristics, and terrain). Regular inspections and tune-ups are particularly important for ensuring that your bike remains safe and fun to ride.

Tire Information

Aventure uses 26’’ x 4.0’’ rubber tires with inner tubes. The tires are designed for durability and safety for regular cycling activities and to be checked before each use for proper inflation and condition. Proper inflation, care, and timely replacement will help to ensure that your bike’ s operational characteristics will be maintained, and unsafe conditions avoided.
Aventon Bikes recommends 5-30 PSI for the stock tires on Aventure. Always stay within the manufacturer’ s recommended air pressure range as listed on the tire sidewall.
It is critically important that proper air pressure is always maintained in pneumatic tires. Do not underinflate or overinflate your tires. Low pressure may result in loss of control, and overinflated tires may burst. Failure to always maintain the air pressure rating indicated on pneumatic tires may result in tire and/or wheel failure.
Inflate your tires from a regulated air source with an available pressure gauge. Inflating your tires from an unregulated air source could overinflate them, resulting in a burst tire. Even tires equipped with built-in flat- preventative tire liners, like those that come with bikes by Aventon Bikes, can and do get flats from punctures, pinches, impact, and other causes. When tire wear becomes evident or a flat tire is discovered, you must replace the tires and/or tubes before operating the bike or injury to operators and/or damage to your bike could occur.
When changing a tire or tube, ensure that all air pressure has been removed from the inner tube prior to removing the tire from the rim. Failure to remove all air pressure from the inner tube could result in serious injury.
Using aftermarket tires or inner tubes, not provided by Aventon Bikes may void your warranty, create an unsafe riding condition, or damage to your bike by Aveton Bikes. If required by law, ensure replacement aftermarket tires have sufficient reflective sidewall striping. For more information on tire or tube replacement procedures, or questions about tire inflation, contact Aventon Bikes Product Support.

Derailleur
On the right side of handlebar, next to the brake lever, you can see two levers with 8-1 gears. Those are derailleur levers. By pressing those levers, you can make the chain move to different gears to change your riding experience.

Additional Information on Wear
Components of Aventure are subject to higher wear when compared to bikes without power assistance. This is because Aventure can travel at higher average speeds than regular bicycles and has a greater weight. Higher wear is not a defect in the product and is not subject to warranty. Typical components affected are the tires, brake pads and rotors, suspension forks, spokes, wheels, and the battery.
When the useful life of a component Is surpassed it can cause unexpected loss of function. This Acan result in serious injuries or even death. Therefore, pay attention to wear characteristics such as cracks, scratches, or changes in the color or operation of components which could Indicate useful life has been exceeded. Worn components should be replaced Immediately. If you are unfamiliar with regular maintenance, a certified, reputable bike mechanic should be consulted.
