Automatic gear shifts: New trekking e-bike offers 90 Nm, 800Wh and strong specs

The Aventon Trava EXP is a new e-bike, or at least an additional model version. The bike is offered with a classic diamond frame and also as a step-through model. It is a trekking e-bike, so it already comes with a full set of equipment suitable for everyday riding and tours, including not only a kickstand, fenders and lights, but also a rear rack. This has additional struts for carrying panniers, for example.

An Aventon Ultro S motor is installed. This is a mid-drive motor with a listed peak output of 750 watts, while the rated continuous output is limited to 250 watts, likely also for regulatory reasons. Torque is up to 90 Nm, and the motor is said to provide assistance of up to 400% of the rider’s own pedaling power. The battery has a very decent capacity of 800 Wh, and Aventon lists a range of up to 120 miles. The mid-drive motor, large battery and equipment naturally result in a higher weight, which is listed at 62.2 lbs.

Power is transferred via a Gates carbon belt, and a gear system is installed, specifically the continuously variable Enviolo Automatiq Trekking system, which can even operate automatically. The gear range is of course still limited, specifically to 380% on "Automatiq Trekking". A suspension fork with 3.9 inches of travel is installed. There is no rear shock, but the seatpost is suspended.
