Aventon's new Adventure 3 is an excellent e-bike, as you can see in my Adventure 3 review, and it's loaded with customization options. While it's great with the factory settings, I like to get in there and change my tech around, to turn an e-bike into my e-bike. Here's how I changed my top speed, tuned my assistance, and set-up the bike's security systems.
Changing the Aventon Adventure 3's top speed

Changing the top speed is achieved through the Adventure 3's app, so let's start from the beginning.
Download the Aventon MyRide app on your smartphone.
Hold down the “i” button on the handlebar to enter the menu.
A QR code will appear on your bike’s screen.
Scan the QR code, name your bike, and confirm.
Navigating the Aventon App
Ebike: Your control center for everything from locking your bike to adjusting performance settings.
Go: Records your ride and displays your route on a live map.
Me: Manage your profile, unlock riding achievement medals, and sync with third-party apps.
Tap on the “Ebike” tab and then select “More Settings” to access advanced customization options.
Adjust your max speed between 12 mph and 28 mph.
Tuning your pedal assist levels

Assistance: Controls how much motor support you get while pedaling. Higher=more help, but more battery drain.
Settings will appear on a triangle chart showing how your choices balance Power, Range, and Smoothness. So I bumped up the torque on and assistance on my "Eco" setting and boosted them a bit in "sport."
Everyone knows that exercise doesn't count unless it's tracked and made public, so I synced my Aventon with exercise-boasting app Strava and Apple Health. That seems to be the extent of what Aventon's app can pair with at present, but it happens to be exactly what I wanted, so it's all good. For me at least. You can do this by clicking "me" on the home screen, then clicking "connected apps" under the "Service" heading. Once Strava is paired up, you can hit the "record" button on the Aventon app and it will send your rides over to be posted on Strava automatically.
Security features to know about
Auto locking: I set my bike so the back wheel locks whenever the bike is powered off. It won't prevent anyone from throwing your bike in the back of a truck and driving away, but it will prevent "crime of opportunity" bike thefts where someone hops on and pedals away.
Lost Mode: I haven't had to use "lost mode" on my e-bike, and hopefully I never will, but knowing what your bike will do if stolen is important, so here's what happens instantly if you trigger lost mode:
The rear wheel locks.
GPS tracking begins.
Geofencing: This is a cool feature that I don't have any use for, but if you'd like to make sure your bike can only be ridden in the geographic area of your choice, you can either restrict your ride to a specific area, or only allow it to function in an area you choose. You can designate up to four “go” and four “no-go” zones. For instance, I wanted to make sure my bike couldn't be used around a local dog park, I could set it like this:
Credit: Stephen JohnsonI absolutely love Aventon's goofy "discover" social media platform. I'm not even sure why I like seeing strangers' rides and pictures of their bikes, but I do. So make sure you check it out, set up a profile, and post some pictures for me to look at.
