Specs last verified against the maker on August 12, 2026. Aventon does not publish a continuous (nominal) power rating for the Ultro X mid-drive, so we list only the peak figure rather than guess a continuous one.
What we love
- 120 Nm from the Ultro X is class-leading on paper
- Full 140/150mm travel with Minion DHF/DHR II as standard
- SRAM Eagle 70 Transmission at $3,999
What we'd change
- Aventon publishes no continuous rating for the Ultro X
- A new motor platform with no long-term reliability record
Our verdict
By Sean Lupton · August 12, 2026 · Scored 8.9/10 against how we score
Research-based verdict. This score is an editorial assessment built from spec analysis, verified owner reports, and independent third-party testing — not our own test ride (yet).
The Current ADV is Aventon's first serious full-suspension e-MTB, and on paper it is priced like a bike from a brand with far less to prove.
The 8.9 is a specification score. 140mm rear and 150mm front travel, Maxxis Minion DHF and DHR II as standard rather than as an upgrade, SRAM DB8 Stealth brakes, an Eagle 70 Transmission and an 800Wh battery at $3,999 is a package that would cost meaningfully more from Specialized or Trek. The claimed 120 Nm from the Ultro X is class-leading if it holds up.
Two caveats keep it below the 9s. Aventon publishes no continuous power rating for the Ultro X, so it cannot be compared like-for-like with a Bosch CX or Shimano EP8, and this is a brand-new motor platform with no long-term reliability record. On a $4,000 bike, that is a real risk to price in.
