Torque-Sensing Folding E-Bikes

The 'Sinch.2' Offers Responsive and High-Range Riding

— April 26, 2023 — Eco
Aventon Bikes rightly received significant praise when it first released its 'Sinch' folding e-bike, but the company is clearly not resting on its laurels, seeing as how it has moved forward with the introduction of the 'Sinch.2,' which offers improved range compared to its predecessor in addition to other upgrades.

The 'Sinch.2' folding e-bike also comes equipped with a torque sensor that offers an upgrade over the cadence sensor that its predecessor utilized. This folding e-bike offers four levels of pedal assist up to 32 km/h. Elsewhere, this e-bike offers a range of 55 miles, an improvement of 10 miles over the original 'Sinch.'

Aventon has stated that the 'Sinch.2,' which is available for $1,799, is perfectly suitable for all kinds of riding activity. "Simply unfold the bike, then hit the streets or go off-road. With the addition of a torque sensor and all-new turn signal functionality there's nowhere this bike can't go," Aventon notes.
