Buying an Aventon in Australia through BikesOnline AU
I'm considering buying an Aventon Level 3 Commuter through BikesOnline.com.au and I'm looking for people's experiences with buying this brand through BikesOnline Australia and whether the Australia modified versions are worth it. How is the customer support, after sales service, parts availability, etc
The Aventon Level 3 Commuter is currently being sold for AUD$2,599.00 (USD$1,791.19).

The specs are a little different to the US model to comply with Australian regulations. According to the product description it has:
- MOTOR: Aventon 36V 250W Rear Hub Drive (682W Peak, 52Nm Torque), 25km/h Assisted Speed
Whereas I believe the US model has: 36V, 500W (sustained), 864W (peak) - and I imagine a throttle too. So the AU model has less continuous power and lower peak power, and a lower maximum speed.
According to https://aventonbikes.com.au/ the official retailer for Aventon in Australia is BikesOnline.com.au
Has anyone from Australia bought this restricted version of the bike and think it's worth it?
