Varla Eagle One Pro Rugged Clamp
The Eagle One Pro is an upgraded version of the manufacturer’s best-selling two-wheeler, The Eagle One. Varla Eagle One Pro Rugged Clamp. While the style has remained the same but the Eagle One Pro is more robust, quicker, and has a larger battery.
You know what you learned regarding Varla’s Eagle One and toss it out the window. 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 to come.
The Eagle One Pro is Varla’s first beast scooter, and it seems there will be a lot of flagship high-performance scooters this season. This is in an allusion to 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 from beast scooters. It’s heavier than the local light heavier models Apollo Phantom, Vsett 10+ and Kaabo Mantis Pro, which weighs 79 pounds. And, it also has 11 inches of road tires, which is typical of beast scooters such as the Storm or Wolf King GT.
The Varla Eagle One Pro scooter is also impressive with a well above average top speed for a dollar. It also has an a remarkable performance per pound and great brakes per dollar. This isn’t even the most impressive feature. This off-road scooter is about $640 cheaper than the most comparable beasts, Segways GT1 and the Wolf Warrior 11. Varla Eagle One Pro Rugged Clamp.
Because of the big tires-something that you’re always hoping to hear about-the scooter is able to stand on the ground with a good clearance, with a total of 36 inches. They’re also excellent for traction, however they could be improved. The suspension is stiff and bouncy on urban trails, but the stiffness is useful when traveling off-road. However, you may not be a fan of the shorter deck or the uncomfortable kickplate, especially off-road.

Acceleration
The Varla Eagle Pro’s acceleration does not match that of lighter heavyweight scooters, it is so much better. Varla Eagle One Pro Rugged Clamp. It is tested to have an acceleration rate of 2.1 seconds to the 15 mmh mark. This is the speed that’s typical of heavyweights from the past like the Wolf Warrior 11 at 1.9 seconds, Dualtron Thunder at 2.0 seconds, along with the Dualtron Thunder II at 2.2 seconds. This is because the Varla Eagle Pro’s only rival in the light-heavyweight category is that of the Vsett 10+ with a 1.9 seconds of acceleration up from 15 to mph.
The Eagle One Pro uses the same throttle as the NAMI and Wolf King GT, which implies that it also has similar dead zones. You might want to find an angle to anchor your thumb in order to ensure stability and provide it a reference point when engaged.
Top Speed
We love our love for the Varla Eagle Pro’s top speed, especially for the price. The scooter manages a whopping 40 mph top speed, which is a lot higher than normal when it is compared with other scooters that are in the same price bracket. The higher-priced Kaabo Mantis Pro only hits 37 mph top speed, while the Inokim OXO, still at a higher price is only able to reach 36 mmh.
However, it also has competition from cheaper models such as the Wolf Warrior X Pro which has an top speed that is 43 mph as opposed to the similarly priced Vsett 10+ reaches 43,5 mph.
In its weight class it is a scooter stands in its weight class and is in a league of its own and only compares 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 best. The electric scooter can go up hills without losing too much power, and it doesn’t seem to let up on heavy riders or poor battery levels. When we conducted our 60-meter hill climb at 10% gradient it was found that the scooter was able to maintain an average speed of 17 mph (and more than) up to about 10% charge. Varla Eagle One Pro Rugged Clamp.
The company attributes the impressive hill climbing to the robust dual motors rated at 1000W each, and a peak power of 2600W. Varla claims that the motors produce an impressive 36 Nm or torque enough to propel the scooter up gradients of up to 35deg.
Range
Nothing beats good mileage on the scooter which is why this Varla Eagle Pro electric scooter offers a decent 58 km of range tested. It is interesting to note that the only scooter that is within the $400 range of the Eagle One Pro that can outdo it in the scale is the Wolf Warrior X Pro, which has a range tested of 41 miles. It outran other scooters that cost more, e.g., the Kaabo Mantis Pro with a 33 mile distance, Dualtron Eagle Pro at 32 miles along with the Vsett 10+ with 33 miles.
Behind the range lies a high capacity, 60V 24 Ah battery that has 1440 Wh of power. It’s bigger and more energy-dense with 21700 cells in the battery. This is a step up from its predecessor, it was 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. Charge the battery up to capacity takes 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 would like to see all scooters have hydraulic brakes. However, that doesn’t mean electric scooters that have cable brakes aren’t dangerous or insecure when they need to stop. Absolutely not. In fact the cable brakes as well as EABS of the Varla Eagle Pro offer proven braking power that is truly remarkable and easy to get right. Varla Eagle One Pro Rugged Clamp.
The e-scooter can stop in only 3 meters from a speed at 15 mph. The performance is comparable with that of Vsett 10+. Vsett 10-plus. In addition, the Varla Eagle’s stopping power outdoes those of the Kaabo Wolf King, Kaabo Wolf Warrior X Pro, NAMI Burn-E, and Nami BURN-E2.
It’s not as fun to squeeze the levers that are powered by cables in the Varla Eagle Pro as you would on an electric scooter that has hydraulic brakes but the Pro’s disc brakes don’t leave much on the table when they perform.
The EABS stops the brakes from locking. They can be adjusted using the P-settings that are displayed on the display. You can adjust them between 0 and 2 where 0 is on an insufficient setting, while 2 is a stronger setting.
Ride Quality
Its ride is acceptable however, it’s not exceptional. The only thing they don’t talk about when talking about all-terrain e-scooters is that priority falls on the off-roading aspects.
The pneumatic road tires that are tubeless are ideal for comfort, particularly when riding offroad. Their tubeless nature is great to avoid pinch flats caused by rocks. But, if you’re using the scooter to ride primarily off urban tracks, it’s better to switch to self-sealing, tubeless knobby tires. These will instantly increase the traction of your scooter, maintain your comfort, and decrease maintenance. In addition, because of the tires and 17 centimeter clearance from the ground obstacles on the track won’t cause damage to the deck beneath.
The suspension is stiff. This Varla Eagle Pro could benefit more from adjustable shocks or adapting the spring to less spring force. The stiff suspension is efficient when handling large bumps and stops the scooter from crashing. On well-maintained tracks the suspension can feel somewhat bouncy for ease of use.
The Eagle Pro also comes with an inbuilt steering damper. In high-speed as well as straight track, users can enjoy a great stability. At top speed, the stability isn’t as good as the stability offered by dual stem monsters like those on the Wolf King GT but rather is more like a Dualtron Thunder or Nami Burn with a damper for steering installed. On the downside, the damper on the steering also means that riders will need to exert more force on the bar handles when trying to negotiate turns.
The deck is yet another area to be concerned about. It’s too small, and with this shortage of deck real estate, riders are constantly forced to place the back foot on the footrest, which isn’t designed ergonomically. One bright spot to this model is that Varla Eagle Pro compensates for its poor posture with a well-laid-out cockpit that is comfortable to hold. It is designed for comfort and user-friendliness. Controls can be also ergonomically designed and complement the clear, large 9 centimeter screen.
Overall, between the heavy feeling of the steering, the sporty riding stance and the rumbling acceleration The Eagle One Pro is exhilarating to ride but can also be workout when you’re riding hard.
