Page 14: Safety
Additionally, some jurisdictions require helmet use when riding Class III ebikes like the Level. You should comply with local law when riding your Aventon bicycle. Your Level comes with reflectors and we encourage you to install and use them. Reflectors are not a substitute for lights, which are not included with your bicycle. -
Page 15: Safe Starting & Stopping
The motor interrupt brake levers on Aventon ebikes stop the motor from running when they are squeezed. This adds an additional measure of safety - when you are sitting on, or straddling the bike, but not moving, (for example, when stopped at a stoplight) get into the habit of squeezing the brake levers. - Page 16 motor while parking. Never leave your ebike powered on when parking, hanging from a hook in the garage, or while loading your ebike onto a car or truck rack for transport. If your ebike ever needs repairs or maintenance (for example: to fix a flat tire) always completely power down the ebike before starting work.

Page 24: Frequently Asked Questions
FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS • Do the components of the Level and Pace ebikes interchange? Some components interchange across the line of Aventon ebikes, like saddles, handlebars, and grips. The ebike-specific components, however, like batteries, controllers, displays, and motor do not interchange. - Page 25 • How many times can I recharge my ebike battery? Lithium-Ion ebike batteries use a similar technology to your laptop or mobile phone. They can absorb about 500 charging cycles before performance starts to degrade. Afterwards, they can continue to be recharged, however, their capacity will decrease.
- Page 26 To calculate the capacity, multiply the voltage (V) used on the bike by the Ampere-Hour (Ah) rating. For the Aventon Level, for example, multiply 48V by 14Ah = 672Wh. More Watt-Hours equals more range for your ebike.
