The Current EXP is Aventon’s flagship: a carbon-framed electric mountain bike at $5,999, which is $2,000 above the aluminium Current ADV and nearly five times the price of the cheapest bike in the range. It is also the model that makes Aventon a genuinely wide-range brand rather than a value one — Velotric, its closest rival, tops out at $2,499, so this bike has no competitor in the catalogue we most often compare Aventon against. A carbon frame on a full-suspension e-bike saves weight where weight hurts most, since an eMTB already carries a motor and a battery. Beyond the frame material and the price, Aventon publishes very little.

What Aventon doesn't publish for this model
Top speed · Weight · Suspension travel front and rear · Battery capacity in Wh · Sensor type · Groupset. We looked for these and couldn't source them, so they're blank rather than estimated. If you need one to decide, ask Aventon for it in writing before you buy.
Who this bike is for
Buy it if
- You are an experienced mountain biker who knows what a carbon full-suspension frame buys you
- You want the lightest, most capable bike Aventon makes and have the budget for it
- You will test ride it and judge it on the trail rather than on a spec sheet
- Weight is your priority on a bike that already carries a motor and battery
Look elsewhere if
- You are new to mountain biking. At $5,999 this is not where to find out whether you need one
- You ride gravel, roads or beach paths — the $1,999 Aventure 3 is $4,000 less and better suited
- You want published figures, because Aventon states almost none for this bike
- Value matters at all: this is three times the median Aventon price

Frequently asked questions
How much is the Aventon Current EXP?
The MSRP is $5,999, which makes it by far the most expensive of the 12 Aventon models currently on sale — $2,000 above the aluminium Current ADV and five times the $1,199 Soltera 2.5. Our referral link applies $60 off automatically, which on this bike is about 1% and should not be a factor in your decision.
Is a carbon frame worth $2,000 more?
That is a judgement to make on a test ride, not from a spec sheet. Carbon saves weight and changes how a frame flexes and damps, and on a full-suspension e-bike weight matters more than on a hardtail because there is already a motor and battery to carry. But Aventon publishes neither bike’s weight, so we cannot even tell you how much you are saving. Ride both.
What is the most expensive Aventon?
The Current EXP at $5,999. The rest of the range runs from $1,199 (Soltera 2.5) to $3,999 (Current ADV), with a median of $1,999 — so the EXP sits a long way outside the rest of the catalogue. It is also what gives Aventon a price ceiling nearly $3,500 above Velotric’s $2,499.
Should I buy a $5,999 e-bike online?
Not on the strength of a web page, including this one. At this price the things that decide whether you will be happy — fit, suspension setup, how the motor delivers power on a climb, how the bike feels on a descent — are not on any spec sheet and cannot be read remotely. Find a dealer, ride it, and treat online research as a way to narrow the shortlist rather than make the choice.
Our take
We are not going to recommend a $5,999 bike from a page, and we would be suspicious of any affiliate site that did. What we can honestly offer is three things. First, the positioning: this is the most expensive bike in Aventon’s range by $2,000 and the only carbon one, and it is the model that proves the point we make in our Aventon versus Velotric comparison — Velotric has nothing above $2,499, so at this end of the market Aventon has no rival among the brands we cover. Second, the caveat: Aventon publishes a maximum 120Nm for the Ultro X motor and up to 105 miles of claimed range, but no suspension travel, no battery capacity, no weight and no groupset — and on a carbon mountain bike those four are most of the basis on which such a bike is normally judged. Third, the advice: at this price, ride it. Find a dealer, ride the Current ADV back to back with it, and decide whether $2,000 of carbon is worth it to you on the trail. Our $60 referral discount is 1% of this bike, and it should not influence anything.
