Aventon Cordoba Fixed Gear Bike Recreational Riding Review
After the hustle and bustle of work, we always want to go for a quiet and leisurely ride. With this in mind, we have reviewed the Aventon Cordoba Fixed Gear Bike.
On the actual ride, I drove this bike through the wooded paths of the campus. Its 700c tire size allowed me to enjoy the breeze with ease. Also, the lightweight, high-quality Double-Butted 6061 Aluminum Alloy frame allows me to easily pick up the bike and ride over roadblocks when I can’t get through them.
In addition, the Aventon tapered Fork is integrated into the Aventon Cordoba Fixed Gear Bike, allowing me to add front brakes as needed. And the comfortable Aventon Aero Race seat has a hollowed-out center. Not only is this more aggressive, but it also reduces pressure on my hips while riding, making my ride more relaxed.

Main Features
Frame
The unique paint color of this bike made me fall in love with it at first sight. First of all, the lightweight Double-Butted 6061 Aluminum Alloy frame allows it to weigh only 18.51 Ibs. so you can easily take it upstairs or over roadblocks where you can’t pass the ride to continue your leisurely ride.
Secondly, the frame without external cables looks clean and has a different elegance, but also makes your maintenance and cleaning more convenient.
Yes, the simple-looking frame will also bring you a leisurely riding trip.
Geometry
Regardless of the type of bike, comfortable geometry is essential. For starters, the bike’s steep seat tube angle (75°) not only gives you easier pedaling but also allows you to maintain a comfortable, upright riding position.
Secondly, its steep head tube angle (74°) allows you to have a faster steering response and nimble through even when facing tight corners.
In addition, the relatively short wheelbase (1004mm) allows you to have more flexible handling. Even in the face of tight trails, you ride agilely and flexibly.
Components and Specifications
Front Tektro Brakes
The bike doesn’t have advanced disc brakes, but rather Front Tektro brakes.
And this Aventon Cordoba Fixed Gear Bike uses rim brakes that are rarely seen these days. Although it is based on cost, it must be admitted that it can’t give you as strong a braking performance as disc brakes.
But if you know this is more of a bike for relaxing and enjoying the weekend, you can probably understand why it doesn’t need great braking performance. And with lighter, easier, and virtually maintenance-free braking, this will make your leisurely rides even better.
Kenda Kriterium Tires
It’s hard to imagine a funky bike that sells for so little, with tires that allow you to get the ride you want from everyday leisure riding to regular road riding.
In addition, the 700c x 25c size allows you to roll more powerfully. And its groove smooth design also shows excellent grip on the road.
In addition, accurate air pressure will not only make your ride more comfortable but will also give your tires a longer life.

Aventon Cordoba Fixed Gear Bike VS Priority BRILLIANT L TRAIN
The white body of this PRIORITY BRILLIANT L TRAIN caught my eye, but with it, I was a little worried. It will always take me time to clean it, after all, any bit of dirt is very conspicuous for white.
However, it also has to be said that the belt drive on this bike will make you barely hear anything when you pedal. Also, the overall brake lines on the frame don’t look as clean as the Aventon Cordoba Fixed Gear Bike’s bodywork makes me comfortable. Not to mention the fact that the Aventon Cordoba Fixed Gear Bike is very lightweight.
I think this Aventon Cordoba Fixed Gear Bike is perfect if you like a simple and clean body design or if you don’t like to wash the body frequently.
Aventon Cordoba Fixed Gear Bike VS Jamis BEATNIK
The geometry of the sharper-looking Jamis BEATNIK is a steel frame, which makes me think it will be a bit bulky when riding. And it has Promax long-reach alloy calipers for braking, which are also simple and lightweight.
But this kind of braking is done by squeezing the tires when braking to make the tires stop turning, so I think this will have some harm to the tires.
The Aventon Cordoba Fixed Gear Bike, which is 6.8Ibs lighter than the Jamis BEATNIK, has a more nimble handling and its clean bodywork makes me love it even more.
In addition, the unique tread pattern allows the Aventon Cordoba Fixed Gear Bike to take on more surfaces, allowing you to go for a leisurely afternoon tea time.
Aventon Cordoba Fixed Gear Bike VS Aventon Mataro Fixed Gear Bike
When I see Aventon Cordoba Fixed Gear Bike, I think of elegance, retro, and relaxation. When I see the Aventon Mataro Fixed Gear Bike, I think of excitement, trend, and excitement.
To be honest, I am shocked by this design of Aventon. Because its versatility caters to more people’s preferences, and whether it’s the Aventon Cordoba Fixed Gear Bike or the Aventon Mataro Fixed Gear Bike, they are both very affordable. But it doesn’t compromise on its performance because of the affordable price. In addition, the lightweight body material and the unique tire design will allow you to enjoy a comfortable ride.
If you’re more focused on riding with retro elegance, you can try the Aventon Cordoba Fixed Gear Bike.
Aventon Cordoba Fixed Gear Bike vs Fairdale Express
At first glance, I noticed the Fairdale Express’s control line on the outside of the tube, which is not a popular design these days. This is not a popular design nowadays. And it is a hindrance to cleaning and maintenance afterward. In addition, the steel frame felt a little bulky to me.
Kudos to this Fairdale Express for its rack and fender mountable design. This will not only allow you to take some essential things with you but will also protect your bodywork from getting too much contamination.
But that doesn’t mean the Aventon Cordoba Fixed Gear Bike will bow to the Fairdale Express. the Aventon Cordoba Fixed Gear Bike’s slimmer 700c x 25c tires allow for more speed, and the lightweight body and thoughtful geometry give it more control.
Plus, at $70 less, the Aventon Cordoba Fixed Gear Bike has a carbon fork. This allows you to take on some easy gravel trails. Plus, the curved moon handlebars allow you to rest your arms comfortably.
If you are considering a more affordable price and a lighter body, I think the Aventon Cordoba Fixed Gear Bike might be a good choice.
