best fat tire bike

[sg5y]

I was looking at the Aventon bikes a couple years ago but am glad I waited because I would rather have a more powerful e bike along with my regular pedal bike. I want decent range, weight not terrible,1 motor only,
GOOD quality-no nameless bikes, and a price around 1500 max. I am not paying 2000 for the Aventon 3 but I like the specs on it( https://www.aventon.com/products/aventure-3-ebike?variant=44285587030211..what should I get? I want the bigger tires than most of the commuter bikes have but I want the pedaling to actually do something also..

This is just from a few months ago, see below. Also, regarding fatties, you might want to look at 20” tires as they are popular now, and all the vendors I mentioned in that thread have versions of 20” bikes.

fat bike advice to my eye doc

Hi gang, I wrote the letter below to summarize my thoughts and information on fat ebikes to my eye doctor who’s interested in going down the same route I have. I thought I’d post it here to see if anyone feels there’s elaboration/correction I should make. I express a lot of my fairly novice...

Looks like electronics upgrade plus suspension seat post. Also, obviously, different frame but I don’t know if that’s a plus or minus for you.

The Aventure 2 certainly has a lot of riders/followers. I’ve heard very few (if any) negatives about it.

You can live in the future with specious and unreliable predictions, or you can get a bike now and get riding. I know which I’d choose.

You're over thinking this. Go simple and save some serious money with a closeout Rad Power Rad Expand, for $1000 shipped to your door. Yes, 20" wheels, but a heck of a bargain. Lectric has some good bundle deals as well going on right now. Or wait and hope for a deal around the upcoming holidays. I ride almost everyday so I made my choice awhile ago.

Rad’s also having a weekend sale this weekend on the RadRover 6+ (26” wheels).
