    Trying to decide between Aventon Level 2 or Euphree City Robin +

    Hello, On the surface I'd go with Aventon. They've been around for a relatively long time. Based solely on a quick view of the Euphree website they strike me fairly 'new' ( and smaller ? ) to the e-bike market. Euphree claims 150 dealers, Aventon claims 1800. It appears Aventon is a much more...

    Thanks for the update. Based on ur goal of hitting a minimum of 45 MPH, EBR may not be your best website, especially if you intend to road and trail ride. Folks on EBR seen to fall into a more traditional legal (Class 2 or 3 ) style of riding.....Comments from others ?
