Aventon Current LTD

What the Aventon Current LTD is built for

The Aventon Current LTD is a commuter e-bike, built for daily rides to work, errands and city streets.

It has a 750 W (850 W peak) mid-drive motor and 120 Nm of torque.

It carries a 800 Wh removable battery and a stated range of up to 105 miles (169 km) on a charge. Real-world range is usually lower than the rated figure: it falls with throttle use, hills, cold weather, rider weight and higher assist levels.

The Aventon Current LTD weighs 51 lb (23.1 kg), carries up to 300 lb (136 kg) including the rider, has full suspension, uses a torque sensor, so the motor responds to how hard you pedal and is rated IPX6 against water.

In the United States the Aventon Current LTD sells for $7,999, above the median of $1,499 across 230 commuter e-bikes with a US price, among the premium models. That is $10 per watt-hour of battery.

Where the Aventon Current LTD may be ridden

Aventon Current LTD is sold as Class 1 (pedal assist only, up to 20 mph) and Class 3 (pedal assist up to 28 mph) under the three-class system most US states use. Class 3 e-bikes are kept off some bike paths and trails, and several states set a minimum age and require a helmet for them. Riders can switch between classes in the settings, and the class it is ridden in decides where it may go.

In the European Union and the United Kingdom an e-bike counts as a bicycle only within the pedelec limits; as specified, its 750 W motor is above the 250 W limit. A model above those limits is treated as a moped there, with type approval, registration and insurance, unless the brand sells a version set to the European limits.

Aventon Current LTD safety certification

The brand states that the Aventon Current LTD is certified to UL 2271 and UL 2849.

UL 2271 is the US safety standard for the battery pack of a light electric vehicle.

UL 2849 is the US safety standard for the whole electrical system of an e-bike: battery, charger, motor and controller tested together.

New York City allows only e-bikes certified to UL 2849, with batteries certified to UL 2271, to be sold or rented there; California requires e-bike batteries to meet UL 2849 or EN 15194 from 2026.
