Summary of Reviews

We have read all expert and user reviews on the Aventon Sinch Step-Through. In summary, this is what cyclists think.

14 reasons to buy

The Sinch ST folds smoothly at the frame, handlebars and pedals, to fit in your car boot or closet.

A 48V 14Ah battery ensures a realistic maximum range of around 40 miles.

Stylin’ design cues and tanwall tires confirm the Sinch ST as a real stunner.

With a low-slung step-through frame, the Sinch ST is easy to mount and dismount.

7 gears couple with 5 assist levels to provide plenty of gear range for all terrains.

Reviewers say that there is very little delay when pedal-assist engages.

With an adjustable-height handlebar, the Sinch ST fits riders 4’11” to 6’3”.

Tires? The Sinch ST’s 4” fatties are ready to roll over various surfaces.

A 45mm suspension fork counters small-wheel bump feedback on uneven roads.

The Sinch ST has an easily readable full-color display that syncs with Aventon’s app.

With a 3-amp charger, the Sinch ST’s battery is fully juiced in 4 to 5 hours.

The Sinch ST's display shows trip time, ‘calories burned’ and ‘trees saved’.

Testers found the Sinch ST very quick and easy to assemble with included tools.

A sturdy kickstand is included with the Sinch ST.

5 reasons not to buy

At 68lb, the Sinch ST is heavy enough to create its own miniature gravity field.

With no fenders, mud and water soaked Sinch ST riders.

Some testers would prefer the power of hydraulic disc brakes.

Lights are not included with the Sinch ST.

Higher quality means a higher asking price, compared to some of the competition.

Bottom line

The Sinch Step-Through is a refined version of Aventon’s Sinch foldable Class 2 e-bike. This frame is easier to mount and dismount, for less agile riders. It’s also much spunkier, due to a design overhaul and tanwall tires. With a folding frame, handlebars and pedals, the Sinch ST suits RV and van-lifers as well as inner-city dwellers with limited storage capacity. At 68lb it may be too heavy to carry up multi-level walk-ups to home or work. The Sinch ST is not suited to serious off-roading as the 45mm suspension fork can easily bottom-out. For riding on smooth surfaces, broken pavement and gentle dirt roads, this easy-to-fold and easy-to-ride bike will suit many commuters and travellers.

2022 Aventon Sinch ST Folding Commuter Ebike Review

Level 5 expert

I think it’s really essential to have these big tires when you have these small wheels because that gives you stability and bump-rolling, rough terrain ability. For small wheels, obstacles ‘look bigger’ to the wheel.

Fat Tire Foldie: Aventon’s Stout ‘Sinch’ Ebike Is Ready to Travel

Level 1 expert

Braking power is good from the cable-actuated discs, but I’d like to see them move up to hydraulic systems if possible. I was also a bit disappointed to see the Sinch did not include fenders or lights. Despite those minor quibbles, I had a lot of fun on the Sinch and it was great to be able to pop it into the back of my small electric car without needing a bike rack.
