Aventon Reveals Upgrades to Pace

The new Aventon Pace line includes some key upgrades to a best-seller.


With the release of their updated Pace 500.3 and 350.3 e-bikes, Aventon introduces some key upgrades to make a great product line even better.

The biggest upgrade to the Pace models is the new torque sensor, which creates a much smoother pedal-assist experience for the rider especially when it comes to climbing hills and starting from a dead stop. Third-Gen Pace models will also include a rear-mounted tail light and turn signals, a valuable safety feature that should not be overlooked. Lastly, for those who need to go the distance, the new Pace offers a “low-power mode” to optimize the range of a single charge to up to 60 miles.

As far as the actual design goes, the swept-back handlebars and upright seating of the Pace makes it a comfortable cruiser above all else. Coming in at $1,699, the Pace 500.3 is $300 more expensive than its predecessor. The new Pace 350.3 is also available as a slightly cheaper option, with a 350 W motor rather than 500 and a smaller battery, but only in retail locations.
