    First a Level, and now a Level 2

    I will see about this. I am curious as well.

    First a Level, and now a Level 2

    I have only ridden my V2 20 miles since getting it. I am waiting for the weather to get warmer here in New England, and I plan to use it after work in the evenings. I have ridden my V1 about 50 miles this season. I agree that the V2 is louder and sounds strained. I will have to report back in...

    First a Level, and now a Level 2

    I finally brought one of the Level V2 batteries home and tried it in the V1. It does not seem to be compatible. I was not able to get the monitor to boot up. It does seem compatible with the V1 charger though. This causes me to wonder why Aventon’s battery listing for the Level lists both models…

    First a Level, and now a Level 2

    Thanks for the reply. I have only ridden the Level, and now the Level 2, so nothing else to compare. The Level 2’s display interface does have a setting option where you can set a speed limit, but it appears to be a ‘global’ setting across all of the PAS levels. I initially cranked it right up...

    First a Level, and now a Level 2

    Hello Rebelman. I wondered this myself. My two bikes are located in different places, so I cannot actually swap the batteries at the moment and see if they are interchangeable, but I did take a look on the Aventon website at their battery offerings -...

    First a Level, and now a Level 2

    I bought an original Level (LG Step-over) in April 2021. Since then, I have put about 4K miles on it riding seasonally here in the Northeast US. Other than normal maintenance, it has been a very good bike. Recently, Aventon offered an extra (free) battery with the purchase of a Level 2, and I...

    Level Ver. 1 creaking issue solved

    Congrats on fixing the issue. It feels good to fix these creaks. They sort of get into your head for sure…

    Level Ver. 1 creaking issue solved

    I have had a very annoying creaking issue with my Level this summer. It felt and sounded like it was in the area of the bottom bracket, so first, I made sure both crank arms were properly tightened. The issue remained. I then swapped the pedals with a known good set. The issue remained. I...

    Sleep problems

    I sleep pretty well most nights getting 8 hours of solid rest, but I have found that alcohol complicates the matter. Being a depressant, it’s all well and good when under its effects, but 4 or so hours later, as this wears off, most people wake up anything but tired. Changing one’s environment...

    Level brake pads - There may be an issue here - *UPDATE*

    Hey folks. This is the original poster (OP) of this thread. I noticed that this thread is now nearly one year old, and we are still in this predicament, so I’m beyond holding out hope. I respect those who have posted solutions and modifications of other brands. Way to go! For me, getting...

    Any CT eBikers ride the Air Line Trail?

    The Air Line Trail is a 'rails to trails' park in CT that used to be a railroad that ran between New York and Boston. The train service has since been replaced by Amtrak running a more coastal route, and a portion of the rail bed is now a CT State Park for recreational use. Recently, I had a...

    First Accident Avoided - Front/Rear Camera

    @hoboin - As I mentioned in Post 3 above, I think this is a clear case of the driver seeing a 'bicycle' approaching, and from their perspective, they were unable to judge its speed, but in their mind, it was simply a bicycle. As such, the driver decided to run the stop sign (let's call it what...

    First Accident Avoided - Front/Rear Camera

    Good job and good reflexes. I too have noticed that with my eBike, most folks simply see a bike and rider and disregard the fact that I may be approaching faster than a typical bike. It’s a certain paradigm they are in when it comes to two wheel vehicles that are not full motorcycles…. Or, they...

    I got sideswiped this afternoon at the end of a good ride - minor injury

    Thanks Tom. I appreciate the post and words. I am definitely reassessing my riding routes after this incident. I do have plenty of trail and off road options around where I live, but many involve transporting the bike on my car rack, and I prefer just riding from home. I still have plenty of...

    I got sideswiped this afternoon at the end of a good ride - minor injury

    Thanks, and yes, I consider myself very lucky based on what happened. I do have a rear view mirror on my bike. I have one of the types that attaches into the left bar-end. This particular vehicle gave me no reason to be concerned, and then it happened. That’s why I suspect it veered over...
