Hi Tim and welcome to EBR. Before you go tearing it apart, if he bought it new, it must be under some type of warranty; and if it is, you don’t want to void it by attempting a fix on your own. Good luck.
Hey Johnny rider, welcome to EBR, nice to have you aboard. You’ve got two fine looking bikes there and we wish you good luck and safe riding. Don’t be a stranger. Jump in and ask questions or offer advice, and by the way, send along some photos.
Welcome to EBR Mr Huusarman, nice to have. That is a fine looking bike, and a very nice photo of an old church in the background. Send some more photos of your journeys. I like your motto, Ride safe and stay Safe. Good luck to you. Just curious though, how old is the church?
For the sake of an argument. As been often said in this forum, there is no such thing as a perfect bike, or anything in life for that that matter. Let me start by saying that I am now a third year owner of the Pace 500. When first starting out, I did not like the sudden surge in PAS1 and did...
Welcome Cnsljo, sorry to hear that the PAS Is too much for your wife to handle. I’m not aware of any modification to change the ride. Did you try contacting Aventon to ask if torque sensor can be added? First of all, you have a cadence sensor which pedals quite different from a torque (more...

Welcome JVD, the Level is an excellent bike with lots of features and quality components. Definitely purchase through your LBS. When you have a problem, they will help you out. There are many upgrades and more accessories on the Level for $200. more than the Pace 500. Good luck and ride safe.
If I may jump in for a bit. I have the Aventon Pace 500 and experience the same problem. In 1st gear, it takes off like a jack rabbit up to 12mph. At first it feels intimidating. I’ve searched for ways to reduce that speed and all respondents as well as an Aventon rep said that the...
Welcome to EBR, nice to have you. First, let me say that I have the 500 and quite happy with it after two years of riding. I only wish the Level was available when I made this purchase. You have a lot of bike for the money. Shifting is quite simple. Make sure when you do shift that you are...
Hello and welcome to EBR. Your price range will probably limit your battery capacity, but mostly flat surface riding shouldn’t be a problem even with some off road riding. The salt water environment can and definitely would be a problem if stored outdoors. There are some excellent people on...
In addition to a ground anchor, would put an alarm on th bike. They’re under $20,00 on Amazon and even If the bike is bumped, the noise will scare them away, especially in a closed area. No matter what type of security you have, it can be compromised. Good luck.
Welcome alohacrusin to EBR, and good luck with your purchase. As you know, there are plenty of good people here willing to advise and help you along the way. Feel free to jump in and ask questions or offer advise. Be careful and ride safe.
