Re: Almost brand new electric bike
by Carol Sonenklar 13 May '25

13 May '25

Hello Neighbors, I bought a brand new Aventon Pace 4 ebike last fall and, sadly, I'm selling it. I moved to Pittsburgh around that time and thought I'd be able to use it much more than I do. I'm simply not comfortable riding in the considerably heavier traffic than I'm used to. I love the bike but I'm just not riding it very much. It's VERY easy to use, zips up and down the hills, and weighs about 40 pounds. I'm not young and I can lift it up my front steps if I take the battery off - which is very easy to do. It's been used perhaps 10 times, is in great condition (bought at Biketek in Squirrel Hill), comes with an extra battery and fits a huge range of rider sizes. Here's a link from the website; mine looks exactly like this (it's a Regular size). I paid $2000, asking $1400. Please let me know if you have additional questions (I'll try my best, but I'm not super knowledgeable about ebikes). https://www.aventon.com/products/pace-4-step-through-ebike?variant=44245621… -- Carol On Tue, May 13, 2025 at 8:20 AM Carol Sonenklar <carolsonenklar(a)gmail.com> wrote: > Hello - I forgot to add the link. > > I will send a new message with the link.
