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.

The bike must be the same color and size, sold in the US and not include the use of a coupon.

- The wide, padded seat features a large handle, making it easier to maneuver the bike.
6 reasons not to buy
- A 6'1" tester says the seat is too low and the swept-back bars are too close, despite being listed for riders from 5'1" to 6'2"
- One expert finds that the fenders rattle and require tuning to stop tire rub.
- Because of frustrating intermittent motor whine, a reviewer calls their Aveny "noisy."
- Testers and users find the Aveny Skyline to be slow when climbing steep hills.

Bottom line
The Blix Aveny Skyline is a stylish e-commuter with a 500W motor, upright riding position, and choice of four eye-catching colors. Testers appreciate how the "balanced" Aveny feels like a regular bike, even with the motor off. The responsive assistance, range, "quality" components and finish, and ride comfort impress. However, underwhelming hill-climbing performance disappoints, and experts report that riders over 6' might feel cramped. Overall, reviewers see the Aveny Skyline as a "bargain" and the perfect bike path cruiser, ideal for urban environments.Expert Reviews
