Flawed Varla

The Eagle One Pro is an upgraded version of the manufacturer’s most popular two-wheeler, which is the Eagle One. Flawed Varla.  The model has largely stayed the same, it’s the Eagle One Pro is more efficient, more powerful and features a larger battery pack.

Take what you knew about Varla’s Eagle One and toss it out the window. It’s the Varla Eagle One Pro comes now available, and it is nothing like its predecessor. It’s not only about the 52% larger battery, even though it has something to do with it–more on that later.

The Eagle One Pro is Varla’s first monster scooter and it’s likely that we’ll see a lot of high-performance, flagship scooters this season. This is in the context of Segway’s GT Series and the brand new Apollo Pro.

Varla’s Eagle One Pro sits on the edge of being a light heavyweight scooter with specs borrowed of beast-scooters. It’s heavier than resident lightweight heavier models Apollo Phantom, Vsett 10+ as well as the Kaabo Mantis Pro, which weighs 79lbs. And, it also features 11 inches road tires, which is typical of beast scooters such as Storm and Wolf King GT. Storm or Wolf King GT.

The Varla Eagle One Pro scooter is also remarkable with a far above average top speed for a dollar. It also has an exceptional range per pound, as well as excellent brakes per dollar. It’s not even the greatest part. The off-road scooter costs about $640 less than its closest rivals, Segways GT1 and the Wolf Warrior 11. Flawed Varla.

Because of the big tires-something that you’re always hoping to hear about-the scooter offers a great ground clearance at over 36 inches. They’re also excellent for traction, but could be better. The suspension feels stiff and bouncy when riding city trails. However, the stiffness can be useful when traveling off-road. You might not like the short deck or its uncomfortable kickplate, especially when riding off-road.

Acceleration

Varla Eagle Pro Varla Eagle Pro’s acceleration is not typical of lighter heavyweight scooters, it is far superior. Flawed Varla. It’s tested with an acceleration rate of 2.1 seconds, which is close to the 15 millimeters mark. This is the speed that’s you would expect from heavyweights with a long history such as the Wolf Warrior 11 at 1.9 seconds, Dualtron Thunder at 2.0 seconds and it’s Dualtron Thunder II at 2.2 seconds. The Varla Eagle Pro’s only competition in the light heavyweight class is the Vsett 10+ with a 1.9 seconds of acceleration, accelerating from 15 to mph.

Eagle One Pro Eagle One Pro uses the same throttle as the NAMI and Wolf King GT, which means that it also shares the same dead zone. You may want to consider finding an angle to anchor your thumb in order to ensure stability and provide it a reference point when engaging.

Top Speed

We love our love for the Varla Eagle Pro’s top speed, especially for its price. The scooter manages a whopping 40 mph top speed, which is much higher than the what is considered to be average when compared to others that are in the same price bracket. The more expensive Kaabo Mantis Pro only hits a 37 mph top speed, while the Inokim OXO, still at a higher price, only reaches 36 mmh.

However it also is competing with lower models, such as the Wolf Warrior X Pro which achieves a top speed of 43 mph, while the comparable Vsett 10+ reaches 43,5 mph.

In terms of weight it is a scooter stands in its weight class and is in a league of its own and only is comparable with its predecessor, the Dualtron Thunder.

Hill Climb

The Varla Eagle Pro electronic scooter is impressive for a lot of things, and hill-climbing is definitely one of the most impressive. This electric scooter can climb the hills without losing power, and it doesn’t seem to let up when there are heavy riders or low battery conditions. In our 60-meter hill test at a 10 percent gradient and a 10% gradient, the scooter was able to keep an average speed of around 17 mph (and over) until around 10% charge. Flawed Varla.

The manufacturer credits the impeccable hill climbing to the robust dual motors rated at 1000 W each, and a peak power of 2600 W. Varla claims that the motors deliver an impressive 36 Nm in torque. This is enough to propel the scooter upwards up to 35deg.

Range

Nothing beats the good miles on a scooter and this Varla Eagle Pro scooter gives a good 58 kilometers of tested range. The only scooter less than $400 from its Eagle One Pro that can surpass it in terms of scale is the Wolf Warrior X Pro, which has a range tested that was 41 miles. It beat other scooters that cost more, e.g., the Kaabo Mantis Pro with a 33 miles of range. Dualtron Eagle Pro at 32 miles as well as the Vsett 10+ with 33 miles.

The battery behind the range is a large capacity, 60V 24 Ah battery with 1440 Wh of energy. It’s bigger and more efficient with 21700 battery cells. It’s a leap from its predecessor, that of the Eagle One, whose battery was valued at 946 wh and came with only 18650 lithium cells. Both batteries integrate intelligent battery management systems that preserve life. Charging the battery to capacity takes 8-9 hrs, but you can secure a second charger and reduce charging time to 4 to 5 hours.

Braking

Let’s face it, we would prefer that all scooters came with hydraulic brakes. This doesn’t mean that electric scooters with cable brakes are dangerous or insecure when it comes to stopping. Absolutely not. In fact, the cable brakes plus EABS on the Varla Eagle Pro feature proven braking power that is truly remarkable and simple to set up. Flawed Varla.

The e-scooter stops in just 3 meters from an approximate speed that is 15 mph. This performance is in line with that of the Vsett 10+. In addition, the Varla Eagle’s stopping power outdoes those of the Kaabo Wolf King, Kaabo Wolf Warrior X Pro, NAMI Burn-E, as well as Nami BURN-E2.

You may not enjoy squeezing the cable-actuated levers that are on the Varla Eagle Pro the way you would do on an electric scooter that has hydraulic brakes however, the Pro’s mechanical disc brakes don’t leave much on the table when it comes to performance.

The EABS prevents that the brakes aren’t locking up. They are adjustable using the P-settings displayed on the display. You can set them between 0 and 2 which means 0 is a weak setting, and 2 refers to a strong setting.

Ride Quality

Ride quality can be described as acceptable however it’s not the best. The caveat they never discuss when promoting all-terrain e-scooters is that the primary focus should be on the off-roading measures.

The tubeless pneumatic road tires are great for comfort, especially when traveling offroad. The tubeless nature of these tires is ideal for avoiding pinch flats that are caused by rocks. However, if you’re getting the scooter for use mostly on city tracks, then you’d be better off switching to self-sealing, knobby tires. These would automatically double your traction, retain your comfort, and reduce maintenance. In addition, because of the tires and 17 centimeter clearance from the ground, obstacles in the track will not scratch the deck beneath.

The suspension is hard. The Varla Eagle Pro would have been better off with adjustable shocks, or by adjusting the spring to lower spring rates. However, the stiff setup is efficient when dealing with large bumps and keeps the scooter from crashing. If the track is well maintained the suspension is somewhat bouncy for ease of use.

It is also equipped with a steering damper. Eagle Pro also comes with a built-in steering damper. In high-speed and straight tracks, riders will experience excellent stability. At top speed the stability isn’t as good as that offered by dual stem monsters such as the Wolf King GT but rather feels like a Dualtron Thunder or Nami Burn with a steering damper installed. On the downside, the damper on the steering also makes it so that drivers need to exert more force on the bar handles when making turns.

The deck is another cause to be concerned about. It is too short and, due to the lack of deck real estate, riders are constantly forced to put their back foot on the footrest, which isn’t ergonomically designed. The only bright side to this model is that Varla Eagle Pro compensates for a poor stance with an excellently laid-out and comfortable cockpit that is comfortable to use. It is designed for comfort and ease of use. Its controls can be also ergonomically designed and complement the large, well-lit 9 centimeter display.

Overall, with the heavy steering feel as well as the sporty riding posture and the fast acceleration that the Eagle One Pro is exhilarating to ride but can also be quite workout when you’re riding hard.

What Makes the Pro Version Different From Eagle One

• There were some significant improvements that Varla made on the original Eagle One to get the Pro. Here are a few of the major variations:
