Aventon Releases Its First-Ever Electric Mountain Bike With An Aventon-Designed Mid-Drive Motor
Brea, Calif. – 2024 – Aventon, a California-based electric bike company, is thrilled to announce its first-ever electric mountain bike. Ramblas comes equipped with a mid-drive motor that was designed exclusively by Aventon, allowing riders to adjust their riding settings, providing a more natural and personalized feel. In addition, this hardtail eMTB is ready to carve out the uncommon route on trail and on the road with quality components from well-known brands such as: Rockshox 35 suspension with 130mm of travel, Sram DB8 mineral 4 piston hydraulic disc brakes, Sram 12sp NX drivetrain & Maxxis tires. Get ready to roam, ramble, and revel in the more dynamic side of the ride. With Ramblas, it’s mountain time, all the time.
Aventon’s mid-drive motor, named the A-100, was designed to give riders full control over their riding experience. By fine-tuning Ramblas’ three pedal assist levels in the Aventon app, rider’s can customize how the bike performs, giving them a personalized and more natural riding feel similar to that of a traditional bike.
“As enthusiasts ourselves, we believe that the joy of cutting-edge electric mountain biking should be an experience accessible to all, not just a privileged few,” says Aventon CEO, JW Zhang. “We at Aventon are on a mission to revolutionize this landscape. Our Ramblas eMTB is not just a bike, it’s a testament to breaking barriers. The Ramblas delivers superior technology with a proprietary mid-drive motor, premium features, and a durable alloy frame. This ensures the thrill of our eMTB is accessible to all without sacrifice.”
Ramblas’ A-100 motor delivers 100 Nm of torque ensuring steady, natural acceleration and smooth climbing compared to other mid-drive motors, such as Bosch, Brose, Yamaha and Shimano that delivers only 90Nm. The torque gradually decreases as pedal speed increases, aiming to replicate the sensation of riding without motor assistance, preventing a sharp drop-off in torque. The motor is also IP67 waterproof rated, meaning it has complete protection against dust and immersion in water for short periods of time, ensuring protection in wetter, dirtier riding conditions.
