Which electric cargo ebike is better for you: Mid Tail Abound SR or the Long Tail Abound
Top5ebikes had the pleasure of owning and reviewing the Aventon Abound, which we loved, and recently Aventon started selling a mid tail or shorter rack (hence SR) Abound. We loved the Abound and have not tested the Abound SR but here are some of the high level differences in each of these cargo ebikes.
On the spec side there are not many differences, and in fact the motor/battery/brakes/load capacity are all the same. We believe it really comes down to your needs and the different riding feel for each of these ebikes.
Aventon Abound:
-
- Longer tail: Designed to carry larger loads and multiple passengers
-
- Lower, more traditional handlebar: Provides a comfortable riding position for longer distances.
-
- Foldable stem: Allows for easier storage and transport.
Aventon Abound SR:
-
- Shorter tail: More suitable for carrying smaller loads or a single passenger.
-
- Higher, BMX-style handlebar: Offers a more upright riding position, which can be more comfortable for shorter rides and urban environments.
-
- Non-foldable stem: Simpler design and potentially more durable.
