Varla Pegasus Manual
The Eagle One Pro is an upgraded version of the best-selling two-wheeler, the Eagle One. Varla Pegasus Manual. Although the style has remained the same, the Eagle One Pro is more powerful, faster, and has a larger battery pack.
Take what you knew about Varla’s Eagle One and toss it out the window. Varla’s new Varla Eagle One Pro is here, and it is nothing like its predecessor. It’s not only about the 52% larger battery, though that has some significance–more on that later.
The Eagle One Pro is Varla’s first monster scooter and it appears we’ll see a lot of flagship high-performance scooters this season. This is a the context of Segway’s GT Series and the brand new Apollo Pro.
Varla’s Eagle One Pro sits on the fence as a light heavyweight scooter with borrowed specs of beast-scooters. It’s heavier than the local light heavier models Apollo Phantom, Vsett 10+, along with the Kaabo Mantis Pro, which weighs 79 pounds. It also has 11 inches of road tires, typical of beast scooters like the Storm or Wolf King GT.
The Varla Eagle One Pro scooter is also impressive with a well above trend top speed per dollar, exceptional range per pound, as well as excellent brakes per dollar. It’s not even the greatest part. The off-road scooter is priced at about $640 less than the most comparable beasts, Segways GT1 and the Wolf Warrior 11. Varla Pegasus Manual.
Due to the huge tires-something you always want to hear-the scooter has great ground clearance at over 36 inches. They are also good for traction, however they could be improved. The suspension feels stiff and bouncy for city trails. However, the stiffness comes in handy when riding off-road. But you might not like the narrow deck or uncomfortable kickplate, especially when riding off-road.

Acceleration
It is the Varla Eagle Pro’s acceleration does not match that of light heavyweight scooters-it is much more powerful. Varla Pegasus Manual. It has a tested acceleration rate of 2.1 seconds up to 15 mmh mark. This is the speed that’s typical of heavyweights from the past like those of Wolf Warrior 11 at 1.9 seconds, Dualtron Thunder at 2.0 seconds and Dualtron Thunder II at 2.2 seconds. Dualtron Thunder II at 2.2 seconds. This is because the Varla Eagle Pro’s only rival in the light-heavyweight category will be the Vsett 10+ with a 1.9 seconds of acceleration up from 15 to mph.
It is worth noting that the Eagle One Pro uses the same throttle as the NAMI and Wolf King GT, which means it also shares similar dead zones. It is possible to locate an angle to anchor your thumb in order to stabilize it and give it an anchor point when engaged.
Top Speed
We love our love for the Varla Eagle Pro’s top speed, especially for its price. The scooter has a staggering forty mph top speed, which is well above what is considered to be average when it is compared with other scooters within the same price range. The more expensive Kaabo Mantis Pro only hits 37 mph top speed, while the Inokim OXO, still at the higher cost, only reaches 36 mmh.
However, it also has competition from cheaper models like those of Wolf Warrior X Pro which achieves an top speed of 43 mph and the similar priced Vsett 10+ reaches 43,5 mph.
In its weight class in the weight class, the scooter stands in its weight class and is in a league of its own and only is comparable to its predecessor, the Dualtron Thunder.
Hill Climb
Its Varla Eagle Pro scooter is amazing for a variety of things, and hill-climbing is definitely one of them. This electric scooter can climb hills without losing too much power, and isn’t slowing down with heavy riders or in low battery conditions. During our 60 m hill climb at 10 percent slope and a 10% gradient, the scooter was able to maintain the speed that was around 17 mph (and more than) up to around 10% charge. Varla Pegasus Manual.
The company attributes the impressive hill-climbing ability to the strong twin motors, rated at 1000 W each, with a maximum power of 2600W. Varla claims that the motors generate 36 Nm in torque. This is enough to propel the scooter up gradients of up to 35deg.
Range
Nothing beats good mileage on an electric scooter, and the Varla Eagle One Pro scooter has a reasonable 58 kilometers of tested range. The only scooter within $400 from its Eagle One Pro that can beat it on the scale is the Wolf Warrior X Pro, which has a range tested to 41 miles. It outran other scooters with higher prices, e.g., the Kaabo Mantis Pro with a 33 mile distance, 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 that has 1440 Wh of power. It is larger and more efficient with 21700 battery cells. This is an improvement from the predecessor, called the Eagle One, whose battery was rated at 946 wh and had only 18650 lithium cells. Both batteries are equipped with intelligent battery management systems that ensure that the battery’s life is not compromised. Charging the battery to capacity can take between 8 and 9 hours, however, you can get another charger, and cut down the charging time to 4 to 5 hours.
Braking
Let’s face it, we wish all scooters had hydraulic brakes. This doesn’t mean that electric scooters that have cable brakes aren’t dangerous or insecure when it comes to stopping. Absolutely not. In fact, the cable brakes plus EABS of Varla Eagle Pro Varla Eagle Pro have a tested braking force that is truly impressive and simple to set up. Varla Pegasus Manual.
The electric scooter stops in 3 meters from an approximate speed of 15 mph. The performance is comparable with Vsett 10+. Vsett 10+. Again, the Varla Eagle’s stopping strength is better than Kaabo Wolf King, the Kaabo Wolf King, Kaabo Wolf Warrior X Pro, NAMI Burn-E, as well as Nami BURN-E2.
It’s not as fun to squeeze the cable-actuated levers in the Varla Eagle Pro as you would on an electric scooter equipped with hydraulic brakes however, the Pro’s mechanical disc brakes do not leave anything to be desired when they perform.
The EABS stops the brakes from locking. They can be adjusted using the P-settings displayed on the display. You can adjust them in between zero and two, where 0 is on the weak setting and 2 is a stronger setting.
Ride Quality
The ride quality is good, but it’s not great. The caveat they never discuss when promoting all-terrain e-scooters is that priority falls on the off-roading measures.
The pneumatic road tires that are tubeless are excellent for comfort, especially when traveling offroad. Their tubeless nature is great to avoid pinch flats caused by rocks. However, if you’re getting the scooter for use mostly on urban tracks, you’re better off changing to self-sealing, tubeless knobby tires. These would automatically double your traction, retain your comfort, and reduce maintenance. In addition, because of the tires and a 17 centimeter clearance on the ground obstructions on the track won’t scrape the underdeck
The suspension is stiff. The Varla Eagle Pro could have benefited more from adjustable shocks or adapting the spring to lower spring rates. However, the stiff setup works well when dealing with large bumps and stops the scooter from falling off. On well-maintained tracks the suspension can feel slightly bouncy and not enough for the comfort.
It is also equipped with a steering damper. Eagle Pro also comes with a built-in steering damper. At high speeds along straight tracks users will enjoy excellent stability. At top speed the stability doesn’t match the stability from dual-stem beasts such as Wolf King GT. Wolf King GT but rather feels like the Dualtron Thunder or Nami Burn with a damper for steering installed. The downside is that the damper on the steering also implies that the riders need to exert more force on the bar handles when trying to negotiate turns.
The deck is yet another area of concern. It is too short, and with this shortage of usable deck real estate it is a constant struggle for riders to rest their back feet on the footrest that is not ergonomically designed. The bright side is that the Varla Eagle Pro makes up for its poor posture with an excellently laid-out and comfortable cockpit that is easy to hold. It’s designed to provide comfort and convenience. Its controls can be also ergonomically designed to complement the clear, large 9 centimeter screen.
Overall, between the hefty feel of the steering and the athletic riding stance and the rumbling acceleration The Eagle One Pro is exhilarating to ride, but it could also be a bit of a workout when you’re racing hard.
