The Varla Eagle One PRO is Better in Red!

- The Varla Eagle One Pro is an electric scooter that I was lukewarm about in my first impressions. Will the red version, equipped with hydraulic brakes, rather than mechanical brakes, be more to my liking?

Got mine in the mail today! So far I love it! Gonna commute 28 miles a day on it lol
Just got one too. Really hoping this unit stands the test of time.
@@scottd5950 so far mine has been great, only problem I’ve had is I started getting vibrations at >38mph so I had to add a crap load of wheel weights to the wheels to balance them.
Thanks for a great video and further feedback on the Eagle One Pro - Although I bought a more high end scooter for myself, this may be a great second scooter for the family. Looking forward to seeing your further review.
Very good review man! I actually like this one allot, although normal I never tell people to go out and purchase a varla, this one is actually very impressive! The stable 40+ mph speed with no speed wobbles,is awesome...
Awesome long high speed test ride where we actually see whats the ride is like, THANKS now I'm confused on buying a Nanrobot D6+ and this one, signed confused🤔Liked-Subscribed !
Can't wait for the full review! It looks promising. Right now it's between this and the Mantis King GT for my next scooter
Awesome vid! Just like always :)
The Red one is cosmetically nicer.
Agreed
@@RK9Rides I like blue more as a colour but the this being red is just better than the blue version
check steering head bearing for lube and torque. A dry or too tight bearing will often cause head shake.
Another great review, man! I would just like to ask though, I have a scooter that's coming next month and it's not too popular in the US, "Teverun Blade GT". Do you perhaps have any thoughts about it at all? Any opinion would help. Thanks for the ride!
Man love that look! Plan to fit new Spin-Y scroll throttle, should be freakin amazing! Have you seen it?
thats dope that you got a good one. im not a varla fan, but its a dope addition to your fleet. how do you feel about the throttle, being a fan of finger throttles?
I was going to get the eagle one and checked out your review on the pro just to see if the extra $400 was worth going for. I wasn't too convinced in the 1st review video, but the brakes upgrade and wobble issue being fixed makes me want to do the pro version rather. The slightly harsher ride is my only concern now, but I won't be going off road much or on rough terrain mainly smooth roads so I don't think it's a deal breaker. Excited to get my first E-scooter.
Hey, in your different types of electric scooters video I saw you ride past my local holiday and stuff in Herriman. It was so weird for me to see at first but yeah, I had to replay it a few times lol.
That's funny. You must live close. Be sure to join the "Utah Electric Scooter Riders" facebook page and join us on some group rides!
@@RK9Rides I've only got a 15.5 mph and low range scooter lol - I'd be in the back and have to go back home after 30 minutes.
It's looking like I'm buying this thing pretty soon. Need the flexibility of a bike but the speed of a car and a meepo hurricane is a death trap for commuting in traffic so this seems to be my best option
What do you think about handlebar? I’m not sure if I should change mine to something like DEITY HIGHSIDE 760 HANDLEBAR
50mm RISE or leave it as is.
I noticed you had a phone mounted on the blue model during stem wobble. Mount it on the red model and retest. Maybe wind deflection could’ve caused it.
Good to know. I have the same model still in the box delivered two days ago. I am going to set it up soon. We have a 100 plus degree heat wave here near Sacramento this week, so I am going to wait it out, so I am not cooked the first time I take the scooter out.
set it up now lol so later you can just whip it out brosky
Good buy
I live in Hanford, same weather as you but that doesn't stop me from riding. Honestly, you don't feel the heat riding. You feel a little when waiting on light but then you're hauling ass.
@@kingstergaming7242 Just took the scooter out today for the first ride. It has sat ready to go since September and it still had 56 percent charge .I ran it out 6 miles and got it up to 43 miles an hour a couple of times. I am really happy with this baby.
@@Mikeykaysuperwhat on earth took so long to take it out? Surely the heat wave ended
HEy bro i just got my PLug city scooter .. what do you think about this scooter?Please make a review. i always watch your videos, very entertaining and helpful. THanks
Not bad looking e scooter. i like the original Varla red look.
Here's the $64,000 question though.. given what you have put your original Eagle through.. do you think this upgraded Eagle could handle the same ? Judging by your offroad but around 12min .. it doesnt appear to be as tolerant as your older Varla. anyways.. back to this review.. thanks as always for sharing and good to see the blue and the red versions featured very close together. Look forward to the main reviews. be nice to do an identical journey on both and run a split screen journey so we can see real time how they both run against each other
I definitely am curious to see how it holds up. The pro feels really solid honestly, but the suspension doesn't feel as great off-road. I might take the blue one and do some off-road upgrades like tires and suspension in the future to see how it fares.
@@RK9Rides thanks for the reply and will be watching for the comparison!
@@RK9Ridesthe Pro didn't come like the Original smooth suspension. You have to adjust them to get the smoothness. Once you do that, it definitely feels like the original.
Mine just arrived today! Loving it so far. 6 miles in.
400 miles on my Apollo Phantom
I was also considering the eagle one pro
So far I love it!
This didn't age well... 2 replacement scooters in and having a horrible time.
@@Huntereich You got 2 replacement scooters?,it's been 2 months is everything ok on the eagle one pro and what happend to it
Honestly probobly just something as simple as your original one having slightly defective or out of round tires, nothing crazy, easy to see if thats the case by swapping the tires from the red one to the blue one and seeing if the problem goes away or not... if it does then its just a matter of buying new tires for 50 bucks
smart
Lets go slacker😂 We’re still waiting for the review for the Niu Max 🤔🤔🤔smh😂
On my one - suspension is super squeaky 🥴
But I keep it inside my apartment, so I need something stainless and odorless.
Do you have any recommendations? 🙏🏻
You should do a video on the brand apollo! I just ordered there new 2022 apollo city pro
Hello! i just bought (spell) a ewheels e7 60km/h, any tips i should know / think abt? thx
Are you able to switch to mph on the speedometer
Do a comparison varla eagle 1 and pro on time like off road and street commuter
just got my. the red model pro and it wobbles like crazy.
I think do to wheels alignment.
I just hope they have a way to fix this problem
Yeah the wheel balance or alignment must be the issue here. I'll post an update if I find a fix
Will wait for your full review. Is there one for 40+mph, hydraulic brakes and a long stem for tall 6-2 rider, under $2500 with a 2+ year warranty.
Vsett 10+
This is 40+mph and long stem for $2k. It has 21700 27ah battery and tubeless 11" tires.
I wonder if it is possible to put dual 1200w motors to give it more torque? Nice video but the way
It honestly feels really decent with the dual 1000w. Its a definite upgrade over the regular eagle one in acceleration and top speed
I imagine that the wobbling is caused by a failure of the manufacturer to balance the wheels. LOL 😆
I think the Joyer may be better Quality ♠️
Why is the blue one not available 😢
After all research im down to this or the vsett 10+
Any guess as to why the higher speed stem wobble on the blue model?
My best guess is poorly balanced wheels
I get the wobbles on the new Red hydraulics. So it must be tire balance.
Could you possibly make it go 50 mph?
When the kugoo m4 pro review coming
Hopefully by the end of the month or beginning of next month. I have a lot of reviews and other videos to finish before I get to it.
whats the main difference between this and the normal Eagle One ?
Bigger 11 inch wheels, larger overall build and size, better acceleration, range and top speed.
I was gonna get this but decided to go with a vsett 10+, do you plan on reviewing the vsett 10 ever?
Truth be told the Vsett 10+ does not have 11 inch wheels, but what it lacks in size it more than makes up in power. Crank the settings to max including the acceleration to its 5th setting and enjoy. Throughout the various scooters I have ridden, the Vsett 10 is definitely worth every penny. Also it better to get a long steering damper on this ride, for both stability at speeds and better turning capabilities.
@@DT-Nicky The pros of the vsett still outweigh the eagle one pro
yeah I would much rather get a vsett 10+ than any varla scooter lol
@@lunaticfpv17 IDK...I have both VSett 10+ and the VE Pro. The VSett of course has a bit more power, but the Varla is a very comfortable ride with those fat 11 inch tires. I like them both.
@@chrisb.1214 So which should I get? It would take a big convincing to make me not get the vsett
It's easy just spray paint the swing arms of your blue eagle one pro to red lol.But yea man disc brakes i dont like them they tend to wear off quicker more then hydraulic brakes. Hydraulic brakes have more of a quicker stopping power then disc brakes, disc brakes you have to squeeze the lever harder to brake hard and fast.
Just received mine 2day & the hydraulic brakes seem to suck. First they were mushy then I tightened them up with the small Allen wrench by the lever & they still do not stop quickly. Someone tell me what could be going on please and thank you
Brakes in general take a bit of use to "bed-in" properly. Once you use the brakes more they should get better. These hydraulic brakes also don't "bite" as much as some brands and are a little more progressive. They levers shouldn't feel mushy tho, you should be getting engagement basically right as you press them
@@RK9Rides Thank you telling me my brakes are trash 😭 They don’t lock up at all. Thank you tho
@@RK9Rides Also, I just experienced that sketchy front wobble that you were talking about. This thing is going Back & I don’t recommend it for anyone 🤦🏽♂️
Did they fix the high speed wobbling?
I dunno, maybe you could watch the video and find out?
Must be tire balance, he didn't experience but I do on the same Red hydraulics model.
Can you a video for strategies for safely driving fast on the street with cars. I’m always paranoid of getting run down by cars. Thanks.
I've considered making a video just like this for a while. If I did it would probably be in fall or winter when I have less reviews on my plate.
It's rebounds because you have solid tires, it's not the suspension
Not solid tires. Tubeless pneumatic
You need to ride these Varla scooters everyday for a month straight and see if you still feel that way about Varla. Not a good company I've had to take my pegasus in twice already for cheap materials failing mostly with stem and brakes.
Never been this early lol
Compare this to the mantis king. I feel like the mantis does everything better
I'd love to test the Mantis King as well. I'll see if I can get my hands on one.
@@RK9Rides I think you would love it. The latch mechanism for the stem is the best on the market imo. It looks like a much more premium scooter than the original mantis you had qualms about. The sine wave controllers, turn signals and higher waterproof rating make this the best all around scooter imo
Hydraulic over mechanical disc brakes all day long!
Are you Nile red
Try calling them!!! You will not get them on the phone even to buy one???
Do not trust a company that does not communicate with their customer.
My first instinct is that Varla is shady.😳
UPDATE!!! Varla seems to hear their customers when they speak. 😳From the way they improved upon their original scoots to posting a phone number on their website so customers can reach them. We were having issues buying one on their site because of their credit processing providers and Varla contacted me personally and worked with me until I finally have an EAGLE ONE PRO RED, on the way! And for $1,999 🤗
I will post my opinion of the scooter as a first time buyer
Varla sucks, I know they gave you a free scooter so you might be a little more lenient but they make thier scooters with cheap materials. NOT FOR EVERYDAY USE
