Comfort built into the ride
With an 80mm suspension fork, Aventon suspension seatpost, upright cockpit, and commuter-ready frame, the Level 4 REC Step-Through is designed to feel smoother and more forgiving than a stripped-down city bike.

Connected anti-theft and ride tech
4G/GPS connectivity, Ride Tune, remote notification, hold mode, e-lock, unusual activity detection, and regenerative braking make this one of the more tech-forward commuter models in the category.
