"The Current ADV looks 100 percent the part of contemporary mountain bike. With its 6061 aluminum frame, SRAM Eagle groupset, tubeless-ready Maxxis Minion tires wrapping a pair of double-walled 29-inch wheels, a 170-mm X Fusion Manic dropper post, a Rockshox Psylo Gold front suspension that boasts 150 mm of travel, and a Rockshox Deluxe Select+, it'd be easy to confuse the Current ADV for a traditional analog mountain bike."
"Despite its design and ride feel, all of which can make you easily forget you're riding electric, the Current ADV is a class 1 e-MTB (which can be toggled to a class 3 via the brand's app), and one that gives hours and hours of riding on a single charge."
"The 800-watt-hour battery is tucked neatly into the bike's relatively small downtube, giving a claimed range of up to 105 miles. Of course, I didn't get nearly that, as I was constantly switching through any of the Current ADV's five power modes (Auto, Eco, Trail, Turbo, and a new, 30-second Boost Mode for extra torque on big hills)."
Aventon, originally a fixie brand, has successfully transitioned into the e-MTB market with the Current ADV. This bike features a 6061 aluminum frame, SRAM Eagle groupset, and 29-inch wheels. It includes a proprietary motor and an 800-watt-hour battery, providing a range of up to 105 miles. The bike's design closely resembles traditional mountain bikes, and it offers five power modes, including a Boost Mode for added torque. The Current ADV is designed for comfort and performance, making it suitable for experienced cyclists.
