Getting Started
Press and hold the 
button on the control pad for about 3 seconds to power up the system. While the bike and display are powered on, press and hold for 3 seconds to turn off.
The Abound ebike offers pedal assist. When using pedal assist, an electric motor supplements the rider’s own effort. To use the pedal assist, simply start pedaling, then tap the “+” or “-” symbols to increase or decrease the amount of pedal assist. Pedal assist will engage at preset speeds up to 20 MPH.
The Abound ebike is equipped with a throttle, which is mounted near the rider’s left thumb, to propel the bike without pedaling. The throttle can propel you at speeds up to 20 MPH. The throttle is "on-demand" meaning you can engage the throttle at anytime including from a complete stop while in PAS 1 through 4. However, we strongly encourage you to pedal first before engaging the throttle.
The motor stops when you stop pedaling, squeeze the brake levers, or release the throttle. Simply start pedaling again to re-engage the motor.
Battery & Charging
We recommend charging the battery off the bike indoors, in moderate temperature conditions. To charge the battery, plug the charger into the charging port and then connect the charger to a wall outlet. The LED indicator light will be red when charging and will turn green when charging is complete.
Maintenance & Service
Properly maintaining your Abound ensures its longevity and smooth operation. Here is our recommended ebike maintenance guide and schedule. Before assembling your bike, please watch the “How To Assemble” video.
Safety
You should wear an approved bicycle helmet every time you ride a bicycle, regardless of the legal requirement to do so. Additionally, some jurisdictions require helmet use when riding Class III E-Bikes like Abound. You should comply with local law when riding your Aventon bicycle. Check out our Safety section for more information.
