    Zen Shakti

    Looks like a winner. I suspect that the front rack option has limited appeal and diminish aesthetics of really good looking ebike.

    LMT'D Battery Fit?

    I've had non-OEM batteries for several of my ebikes. Most 'fit' about the same. They all had slight gaps around the battery case even OEM. Water is going to get in these gaps upon immersion. I don't recall any ebike saying they are waterproof. But I doubt normal rain would affect the connection...

    52V Lithium battery voltage is normally charged to approximately 58V. So 80% is around 46V.

    My brother wants a Dost mid motor

    Dost is cadence sensor vs LMTD torque. The riding experience of cadence vs torque might be the determining factor.

    M600 owners..

    FLX Roadster M600 metal gear with over 4000mi. I hardly notice the slight 'hum' even when riding alone in the desert with no other sound than my tires. I think the sound would be overridden by city noise. Definitely not vacuum cleaner loud. Extremely happy with the powerful performance. Will...

    M5 LCD Replacement

    I have had 4 Aventon Pace 500 ebikes over the past two years. ALL 4 Displays reset after X miles. This is well known problem for Pace 500 Displays. I received replacement Displays on 3 of the ebikes. 4th Display received monetary rebate from Aventon. Reset Display works fine. Just know that...

    Aventon Modification

    Throttle On Demand is so convenient from stop lights. Just a second or two of throttle power gets you moving and you can start pedaling easily. Everyone has their opinions on TOD. I hope ebike sellers keep offering it. I parked my Aventon Pace 500 after 6000 reliable miles. It does not have TOD...

    Accessories for Pace 500

    I have tried several different bottle cage mounts on my 500. This is the one I really like. Very solid. Out of the way of standover and battery removal. SKS Germany Anywhere Bottle Cage Mount. I used Aventon's plastic bottle cage with the SKS strap mount on the bottom side of the toptube as...

    Level display question Trip A -B

    No. Trip A/B are the same. Except in the new replacement display Aventon provides upon ODO reset to 0. The replacement display Trip B shows both Km and Mi icon. But displays Miles as does Trip B if set to Imperial. Trip reset while taking a short break is inconvenient. Other mileage tracking app...

    Aventon Modification

    OP was asking about THROTTLE ON DEMAND. Yes The Pace 500 has a throttle. But active only after pedaling. TOD is the advantage of starting from a stop with just applying the throttle. Great for in town riding at stop lights. Or starting up an incline.

    Aventon Modification

    NO. Aventon has repeatedly stated they will not change the controller software for Throttle On Demand. Or change the high pedal assist level in PAS 1. Good value ebikes. Wish they had those modifications as options. They'd have a really great ebike for $1400.

    Unusual brake noise...

    On one of my Pace 500, I too had wierd braking sounds right from the start. I replaced the OEM pads with new ones from Amazon. 4 sets were like $15.00. Five minute easy install. After quick breakin, I had new quiet brakes.
