BikeRide finds and shows you the best prices of the bikes you want to buy. Prices constantly change and it’s impossible to compare them all yourself.

We search for prices on over 120 bike retailers to guarantee that we find the lowest prices – to save you time and money.

It’s a promise we stand behind: If you find a lower price on a bike elsewhere, we will sell it to you for 10% less. For example, if you find a bike for $480 that we have listed at $500, we will offer you to buy it for $432 through BikeRide. The bike must be the same color and size, sold in the US and not include the use of a coupon.

If you find a lower price, email us at [email protected] with documentation of the price. We’re committed to making sure that the cost of a bike does not keep you from cycling!

8 reasons not to buy

  • Two testers (5’11” and 6’1”) say the bike doesn’t fit, despite a stated rider fit of 4’11” to 6’3”.
  • The IPX4 water ingress protection rating means the Abound LR shouldn't be ridden in heavy rain.
  • At 90lb, the Abound LR is heavy, even for a cargo e-bike.
  • Experts find the display's small font and battery percentage difficult to read.
  • One expert feels the kickstand isn't wide or stable enough for a cargo bike.
  • The rear rack's capacity of 143lb is slightly below average.

Bottom line

Aventon's Abound LR is a long-tail cargo e-bike with 20" wheels, 3" tires, and a 750W motor. Upgrades over the original Abound include an 8-speed drivetrain, height-adjustable stem, suspension seatpost, and security features that use the bike's 4G connection. This LR's rack is 7" longer than the SR's but has the same 143lb capacity. Testers praise the responsive power, solid range, and comfortable ride. Complaints include the high weight, poor water resistance, wide Q-factor, and exaggerated height range. Despite these issues, experts hail Aventon's Abound LR as an excellent entry-level e-cargo option.
