Urban Transportation in Canada is Changing

As Canadian cities grow denser, traditional commuting methods like cars are becoming less efficient, leaving many Canadians stuck in traffic for hours. Commuter ebikes are emerging as a sustainable, time-saving solution for urban transportation. In this guide, we’ll compare two of the best commuter ebikes in Canada: the Aventon Level 2 and the NCM T7s.

Aventon Level 2: The Top-Selling Commuter Ebike in 2023-2024

The Aventon Level 2 is the best-selling ebike at EZbike Canada for 2023 and 2024, offering unbeatable versatility and affordability at a price point of $2,599. Known for its modern design and performance, this ebike is equipped with a 500w rear hub motor, an 8-speed Shimano Altus derailleur, and a throttle for effortless commuting.

Safety features are a priority, with a front headlight and three tail lights that brighten when braking. The Aventon Level 2 also includes an integrated rear rack and fenders as standard equipment, making it ideal for daily commutes or urban adventures in all weather conditions.

NCM T7s: A Budget-Friendly Commuter Ebike

Priced at $2,149, the NCM T7s is a more affordable alternative that doesn’t compromise on features. This ebike includes metal fenders, a rear rack, and integrated front and rear lights. Its preload adjustable suspension seatpost, RST front suspension, and quick-adjust handlebars ensure a comfortable ride. Ergonomic handlebar grips and a chain guard come standard, adding extra value to this commuter ebike.

While the NCM T7s offers more features out of the box, some of these components, like a suspension seatpost, are available as aftermarket accessories for the Aventon Level 2, including the Aventon Glide Seatpost (AGS).

Build Quality and Warranty: Aventon vs. NCM

Where the Aventon Level 2 stands out is in its superior build quality. The frame's smooth welding points give it a sleek, polished look, a feature not as refined on the NCM T7s. Aventon also backs its products with a 2-year warranty on both the frame and electrical components, compared to NCM's 1-year warranty or 10,000 km.

Which Commuter Ebike is Right for You?

Both the Aventon Level 2 and NCM T7s are excellent options for commuters seeking value for money. The decision ultimately comes down to budget, desired features, and personal preference in terms of design and warranty.
