About Aventon
Aventon launched in the early 2010s as a fixed-gear and single-speed bicycle brand, selling track-style bikes direct to consumers at prices that undercut traditional bike shops by a wide margin. The pitch was simple: performance geometry, no frills, and no retail markup. It built a following among urban commuters and fitness riders fast. The company pivoted to e-bikes in 2017, and the timing was precise. The Pace 500 arrived at a Class 2 price point well below most comparable commuter e-bikes, with a hub motor, integrated battery, and throttle-plus-pedal-assist that appealed to riders who had never owned an e-bike before. It became one of the best-selling e-bikes in the US within two years of launch. Headquartered in Ontario, California, Aventon now sells a full lineup spanning commuter, folding, fat tire, and gravel e-bike categories. Every model ships with throttle support and pedal-assist modes, most in Class 2 or Class 3 configurations. The brand remains focused on the under-$2,000 segment, where it is one of the most recognized names in the US market.
Most popular Aventon models
Aventon's current lineup is purpose-built for urban riding and accessible to first-time e-bike buyers, with every model built around a throttle-equipped, battery-integrated platform and the Aventon Control Unit smart hub that adds turn signals, brake light, GPS-based Find My integration, and over-the-air firmware updates on the newest .3 generation. The Pace 4 and Level 3 are the core commuter workhorses: step-over and step-through city bikes with 500W or 750W rear hub motors, Class 3 speed capability up to 28 mph, and integrated rear racks. The Level 4 ADV steps up to a 1,300W peak motor and the full Aventon Control Unit smart hub with 4G/GPS, geofencing, and over-the-air firmware updates. The Soltera 2.5 takes a lighter, more minimal approach with a slimmer frame and 350W motor for riders who want capability without the utilitarian look. The Sinch 2.5 folds in seconds for apartment storage or transit commutes on 20-inch fat tires. The Aventure 3 goes wide instead: 4-inch tires and a front suspension fork for mixed terrain, sand, and light trail use, while the Aventure M trades the conventional frame for a moped-style banana-seat silhouette. The Abound SR is Aventon's longtail cargo e-bike, rated to 440 lb gross vehicle weight and equipped to carry two kids on the extended rear rack. The Ramblas ADV is the brand's hardtail electric mountain bike, with a 100Nm mid-drive A100 motor and Maxxis tires for single-track, gravel, and paved trails. The Abound SR's load capacity is the kind of replacement value that homeowner's policies frequently cap below, which is where stand-alone cargo bike insurance fills the gap.
Aventon's flagship fat-tire all-terrain e-bike, propelled by a 750W rear hub motor (1,130W peak) and 720Wh battery. 4-inch tires roll over anything, hydraulic disc brakes with 180mm rotors stop it on a dime, and the Aventon Control Unit adds turn signals, brake light, and Find My phone integration.

Velosurance is a stand-alone policy that covers theft and accidental damage and can be optioned to create a comprehensive umbrella of protection for your cycling lifestyle.
We cover all types of bikes
Whether you ride the tarmac or shred the gnar, dodge pedestrians, or cruise the beach, you're a member of a special club of people who appreciate the world in a primal way – on two wheels. To keep you rolling, we address the specific risks associated with your discipline.
Coverages and Features
Velosurance offers must-have protection such as accidental damage, theft, or loss in transit. Each policy can be customized by adding additional coverages such as liability protection, uninsured motorist, and medical payments.
Total loss by theft
Bicycles are very easy to steal and equally difficult to recover, and even a hefty U-lock doesn’t guarantee your bike is still there when you return. Velosurance provides peace of mind if it is stolen or damaged in the process.
Any crash or accidental damage
Our policy will pay to replace your ride if it is accidentally damaged and beyond repair, including damage that occurs while being carried on or in your vehicle. If it can be repaired, we will pay all the costs associated with the bike's repair, including tax, labor, and shipping, minus the deductible. Cosmetic damage that does not affect safety is excluded.
Our shop or yours
When filing a claim, you’ll need to provide a repair estimate from a repair shop. We have a nationwide network of partner shops familiar with our process to help you move things along quickly. Prefer your favorite local shop? That works too.
Gear and apparel
If you go down in a crash, we cover your ride as well as your apparel, such as helmet, shoes, glasses, or riding kit that are torn up, and pay up to $500 per accident and $1,000 per term. Spare parts that are not installed, such as a spare wheelset, are also covered up to $500 per loss and $1,000 per year.
Your choice of lock
We do not dictate what type or brand of lock must be used to protect your ride from theft – you are welcome to use any lock that you trust. The best security is provided by metal locks combined with a high-quality chain. Securing your ride to a solid and immovable object, such as a bike rack, with a high-quality lock will send the thief onto the one secured with a more vulnerable lock.
No depreciation
Depreciation is a hidden deductible that increases every year and is applied if the bicycle is stolen or totaled. No one is ever happy with an Actual Cash Value insurance settlement: the bike is first devalued, and then a deductible is applied, resulting in a reimbursement that is far less than the cost of a replacement. We reimburse without depreciation, for the cost of a replacement that is of like, kind, and quality similar to your totaled bike.
24/7/365 coverage
We cover the insured bike at all times, anywhere in the USA and Canada, and can be extended worldwide on request. There are no exclusions on the time of day or limitations on how long it can be stored away from home. 24/7/365 means every minute of every day, no matter where or when.
Standalone policy
Our policy does not piggypack on any coverage you may already have, such as homeowners policies. Filing a claim won’t impact your rates with other carriers. With home insurance premiums rising each year in the U.S., it’s wise to reserve that policy for major incidents, because no matter how valuable your bike is, it’s still a lot cheaper than a kitchen fire or a flooded basement.
Permissive use
You can lend it to anyone you choose, and it will be covered. The bike and the person riding it are covered as if it were you riding it‚ this includes theft and crash damage as well as any purchased optional coverages.
Why Velosurance is best for your bicycle
Not all types of insurance are created equal. Velosurance levels the playing field by offering stand-alone bicycle coverage, where claims won’t affect your homeowner's or renter’s policy premiums.
