WIRED Freedom E-Bike vs Aventon Level 3 Commuter E-Bike

The Aventon Level 3 is the better everyday commuter. It is a 67 lb step-through with a torque sensor, integrated lights, fenders and a rear rack, and owners rate it 4.6 from about 1,800 ratings. The WIRED Freedom is a different machine: 1,500W nominal with 3,200W peak, 153 Nm, dual 60V batteries and full suspension, built for riders who want speed, range and off-road capability. The Freedom is far heavier at 115 lbs and more of a moped-style ride; the Level 3 is easier to live with, easier to store and easier to pedal when the battery runs low.

• Choose the WIRED Freedom if you want 35 mph capability, about 90 miles of range from dual batteries, full suspension and a 450 lb load limit for trails, hills or long fast rides.
• Choose the Aventon Level 3 if you want a lighter, step-through commuter with a natural torque-sensor pedal feel, integrated lights, fenders and a rack for daily errands and rides to work.
