Great review, thank you! I'm wondering about the comparison to the Aventure 2, in your opinion. The folding function would be great, but are there any downsides to choosing this over the Aventure 2?
Thank you and good question! The biggest difference between the two will be the wheel size. Even though they both have 4" fat tires, the Aventure.2 has much larger wheels that will more easily roll over any terrain, especially rough terrain. That being said, if you choose the Sinch.2 for the folding feature, you'll be happy with it and won't notice this difference since you're not riding both :)
Thank you! Although I like the XP3 (lectricebikes.sjv.io/b3nY1g), if you have an additional budget, I'd choose the Sinch 2 (alnk.to/4fOZI1c) with its torque sensor and full 4" fat tires (better at off-roading). Also, it feels sturdier than the XP3, suggesting better quality components. Both are perfect for first-time buyers! 😀
Brakes are not hydraulic. I have heard those are easier to squeeze lever and stop quicker. Also, wish you would have discussed and shown battery removal and charging, those are deal-breakers for a lot of people. Also, what about service availability.
Yes, hydraulic brakes are better for stopping but these are good mechanical brakes (all are not equal). The battery is a standard pop out and easy to get to. Finally, Aventon is well-known and wouldn't sell as many bike as they do if they had poor service :)
Well, there's no contest if you want a folding bike, but both can travel pretty well since the Pace is lightweight. The Sinch 2 is ( alnk.to/dew3rZw ) my personal choice because of the fatter and lower-to-the-ground off-road tires :)
You can pedal without using the battery: Flat ground, sure until you get tired, depending on your fitness level; hills will be hard as with any heavier electric bike. The best idea is to check the bike's "specifications" for the rear rack weight limit to see if it'll work for your child: alnk.to/dew3rZw
You appear to be quite relaxed in the video clips, not seeming to be pushing very hard. Did you ever feel that you lacked sufficient leg strength to keep the bike moving? From Australia.
No... First, it's so easy to ride that I hardly need any leg strength, which does make it quite relaxing. Also, sometimes I ride slow so my videographer (who is also on a bike) can get the footage :)
@@ebikingtoday this is the only thing that concerns me, that it's too easy to ride even on level one assist. I would still like to get a reasonable work out, especially at speeds around 10 to 15 miles an hour
Where do you want to take the Aventon Sinch 2 folding e-bike?!
the beach
@@kathleenshae6550 Great idea!
I hope it fits in my van!
So it came pretty much assembled? That makes me so happy!
Yes, it was wonderful!!! I was very happy too... who wants to spend time assembling a bike? We just want to ride it!
@@ebikingtoday Woohoo!
You did a great job at explaining about the e bike and your voice was so understanding.
I appreciate that! Glad you enjoyed it!
Excellent review - very detailed... I appreciated it greatly as I'm looking into getting a sinch. I think I'm going to love it!
Thanks! Glad it was helpful. And I think you'll love it too!
Pretty solid folding bike
It really is...

Very good review. Can you tell which one would you recommend to a first time e-bike buyer, lectric xp 3 vs Aventon sinch 2? And reason?

It’s between this and the pace 500.3. Thoughts?

Can this bike be ridden on its own if the battery dies out is it too heavy to pedal by itself??? And can u put a kid on the back ?

When folding the bike, fold both pedals up first. Saves some space
You bet!

@@steveareeno65 Lower the gears... or turn off assistance. I guarantee you'll get a workout then!!
