A smart e-bike designed for modern commuters, the Level 3 is packed with advanced security features, extended range capabilities, and comfort-focused components. It\u2019s all part of the new Aventon Control Unit (ACU), which serves as the central brain of the smart bike, and helps it offer new standards in daily riding and commuting convenience.<\/p>\n<p><span id=\"more-403465\"\/><\/p>\n<p>The\u00a0Level 3\u00a0marks <a href=\"https:\/\/bit.ly\/Aventon-Bikes\">Aventon\u2019s<\/a> second e-bike equipped with the\u00a0Aventon Control Unit, a smart bike technology system that provides a suite of advanced theft deterrent features. The ACU offers\u00a0geofencing,\u00a0GPS tracking,\u00a0remote locking, and a\u00a0passcode system, ensuring riders can park and leave their e-bikes with confidence. The real-time bike stats accessible through GPS tracking and a 4G connection also allow users to monitor their rides with ease.<\/p>\n<p>Built with\u00a0intuitive geometry\u00a0and a\u00a0comfortable riding position, the Level 3 seems to add additional focus on providing a smooth and enjoyable everday experience for commuters. The inclusion of a\u00a0front suspension fork\u00a0and a\u00a0suspension seat post\u00a0with\u00a050mm of travel\u00a0are both nods toward comfort, even on rough urban roads that many of us would consider akin to light off-roading. The adjustable stem also allows riders to fine-tune the handlebar position for a personalized fit, further increasing the comfort and customizability of the bike.<\/p>\n<p>Powering the Level 3 is a\u00a0500W, 36V hub-drive motor\u00a0that delivers\u00a060Nm of torque, with peak output reaching\u00a0a claimed 864W. This is an interesting choice as it technically represents a reduction in system voltage for the Level 3, compared to the 48V system found in most of Aventon\u2019s other e-bikes, including the Level 2 that preceded this one. However, Aventon still claims that the motor is robust enough to ensure riders can tackle steep inclines and flat roads alike without breaking a sweat.<\/p>\n<p>\t<span class=\"outbrain-ad-label\">Advertisement &#8211; scroll for more content<\/span><\/p>\n<p>The top speed of the Level 3 is listed at 20 mph (32 km\/h), and so it appears that the Class 3 option on the previous version of the bike hasn\u2019t made the jump to the Level 3. At 20 mph on throttle or pedal assist, the Level 3 will operate in either Class 1 or Class 2 mode, but not Class 3. This may be an attempt to fall in line with increasingly strict e-bike regulations <a href=\"https:\/\/electrek.co\/2025\/01\/01\/starting-today-california-is-coming-for-your-e-bike-throttles\/\">that have begun in California<\/a> and may spread further in the US.<\/p>\n<p>The Level 3 also claims an\u00a0impressive range of up to 70 miles (112 km)\u00a0on a single charge. While that marks an increase in range, the battery is listed at 36V and 20Ah, which is roughly similar in capacity to the 48V 15Ah battery from the Level 2. <\/p>\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image alignwide size-large\"><img decoding=\"async\" width=\"1300\" height=\"864\" src=\"https:\/\/electrek.co\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/3\/2025\/02\/aventon-level-3-speed-class-2.jpg?quality=82&amp;strip=all&amp;w=1024\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-403468\" srcset=\"https:\/\/electrek.co\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/3\/2025\/02\/aventon-level-3-speed-class-2.jpg 1300w, https:\/\/electrek.co\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/3\/2025\/02\/aventon-level-3-speed-class-2.jpg?resize=150,100 150w, https:\/\/electrek.co\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/3\/2025\/02\/aventon-level-3-speed-class-2.jpg?resize=300,199 300w, https:\/\/electrek.co\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/3\/2025\/02\/aventon-level-3-speed-class-2.jpg?resize=768,510 768w, https:\/\/electrek.co\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/3\/2025\/02\/aventon-level-3-speed-class-2.jpg?resize=1024,681 1024w, https:\/\/electrek.co\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/3\/2025\/02\/aventon-level-3-speed-class-2.jpg?resize=350,233 350w, https:\/\/electrek.co\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/3\/2025\/02\/aventon-level-3-speed-class-2.jpg?resize=140,93 140w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1300px) 100vw, 1300px\"\/><\/figure>\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-next-gen-security-and-connectivity\">Next-Gen Security and Connectivity<\/h2>\n<p>The performance specs may not be leaps and bounds above the Level 2, but the Level 3\u2019s technology suite is certainly a major upgrade. As Aventon\u2019s CEO JW Zhang expalined, \u201cWe are excited to announce our second addition of next-generation e-bikes with our\u00a0ACU technology. We are setting new standards on what a smart bike means to our modern customers, elevating their riding experiences.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>With its advanced security suite, the Level 3 is said to provide\u00a0unparalleled peace of mind\u00a0for e-bike owners who are rightfully worried about<a href=\"https:\/\/electrek.co\/2022\/09\/20\/i-just-had-another-expensive-electric-bike-stolen-heres-what-would-have-stopped-it\/\"> the risk of bike theft<\/a>. The ACU\u2019s\u00a0Remote Lock\u00a0feature allows riders to disable the motor remotely, while\u00a0geofencing\u00a0alerts users if the bike leaves a designated area.\u00a0Passcode protection\u00a0adds an extra layer of security, making unauthorized use nearly impossible.<\/p>\n<p>That won\u2019t prevent thieves from carrying the bike away, <a href=\"https:\/\/electrek.co\/2024\/01\/15\/foldylock-forever-bike-lock-review\/\">so a good lock is still a must<\/a>, but thieves in the know may soon learn to leave the bikes alone if they won\u2019t be able to operate it and fleece it for a good price afterward.<\/p>\n<p>The\u00a0Level 3\u00a0is available in\u00a0four color options:\u00a0Glacier Mint,\u00a0Sandstone,\u00a0Matte Black, and\u00a0Matte Aurora. Riders can choose between\u00a0Step-Through\u00a0and\u00a0Step-Over\u00a0frame designs, ensuring a better fit for a wide range of users.<\/p>\n<p>The\u00a0MSRP\u00a0for the Level 3 is\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/bit.ly\/Aventon-Bikes\">listed at $1,899<\/a>, with\u00a0preorders available now\u00a0and\u00a0shipping expected in April.<\/p>\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image alignwide size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1300\" height=\"878\" src=\"https:\/\/electrek.co\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/3\/2025\/02\/aventon-level-3.jpg?quality=82&amp;strip=all&amp;w=1024\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-403469\" srcset=\"https:\/\/electrek.co\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/3\/2025\/02\/aventon-level-3.jpg 1300w, https:\/\/electrek.co\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/3\/2025\/02\/aventon-level-3.jpg?resize=150,101 150w, https:\/\/electrek.co\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/3\/2025\/02\/aventon-level-3.jpg?resize=300,203 300w, https:\/\/electrek.co\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/3\/2025\/02\/aventon-level-3.jpg?resize=768,519 768w, https:\/\/electrek.co\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/3\/2025\/02\/aventon-level-3.jpg?resize=1024,692 1024w, https:\/\/electrek.co\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/3\/2025\/02\/aventon-level-3.jpg?resize=350,236 350w, https:\/\/electrek.co\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/3\/2025\/02\/aventon-level-3.jpg?resize=140,95 140w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1300px) 100vw, 1300px\"\/><\/figure>\n<div class=\"ad-disclaimer-container\" readability=\"6.3518518518519\">\n<p class=\"disclaimer-affiliate\"><em>FTC: We use income earning auto affiliate links.<\/em> <a href=\"https:\/\/electrek.co\/about\/#affiliate\">More.<\/a><\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/bit.ly\/4gRpdqU\"><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-403139\" src=\"https:\/\/electrek.co\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/3\/2025\/02\/9th-Raffle-Banner-750-150.jpg?quality=82&amp;strip=all\" alt=\"\" width=\"1024\" height=\"205\"\/><\/a><\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Aventon, one of the most well-known players in the US electric bicycle market, has announced the launch of its latest model, the\u00a0Level 3.
