Pegasus City Commuter Electric Scooter

Broke in less than 1yr with an error code 6 which indicates a bad battery. Purchased scooter directly from manufacture for $1500.00 and less than 1yr and maybe 25 miles battery goes bad! Replacement battery very expensive around 400-500 so would def not recommend this product. Junk

Just hit 1000 miles. It's very reliable and a great commuter. I am 220 pounds and get 14 miles full throttle gear 3.

Only complaint is the plastic black cover under the deck that isn't very durable, but overall a great scooter that is still serving me well.

I do love the scooter but I would like a faster model. Is it possible to send this one in and upgrade to a faster model?

I added a leg exerciser for those long commutes.

We purchased our Pegasus 2nd hand from a local couple for a great price in which they rarely used it with 120mi of usage only and the scooter looked practically brand new. My wife and I aren’t aggressive riders and coming from swagtron scooter owners it’s easy to agree on that assessment. But we wanted a slight more fun. Thus the Pegasus. First off this scooter is fun to ride. In gear 3, it’s fast fun that puts a smile on my face but not scary fun where you have an apprehensive smile and hoping nothing will cause you to crash hard. We really love the look of this scooter. It’s a bit different from other scooters that you see out there today. The fit and finish & quality is very good for this midrange scooter. So far, we’ve put in about 40mi of fun riding and can’t wait to add more. It does take time in getting used to the tight steering due to the built in steering dampener but after 15mins or so of practice you learn to steer by also “leaning” with your body to the direction of your turns. After learning to do this comfortably, we enjoyed our rides. I would like to share a stem wobble “fix it” advice to all that might have this same problem. I noticed that our scooter had a slight stem column wobble when you shake it back and forth as if the stem and stem lock mechanism was loose. At first, I thought the lock mechanism just needed to be adjusted so I tightened/adjusted all of the screws at the stem lock mechanism but the slight wobble was still there. After more analysis, I concluded that there was a very small gap (perhaps millimeters) where the stem folds and locks. So to fix it, I found these thin neoprene adhesive pads from Amazon. They’re thin and squishy. So I cut them up to circular shaped pieces as best I could and stuck them around the bottom flat part of the wheel stem. And that part I mean is where the actual front wheel is connected to and not the long stem column. But that’s up to you where you want stick them on as long as it works for you. I then bought the stem column up and locked the stem and tested. This fixed the stem wobble and now when I shake the stem back and forth it feels tight and not loose. However, now the locking mechanism does take a bit more force to lock/unlock due to the added neoprene pad space but I’m sure with some slight adjustments to the lock mechanism I can make it perfect. For us though, we are leaving the stem lock a bit tight. We feel more comfortable having to use a little bit more force to lock/unlock as this way we know the stem lock won’t come loose while riding. In conclusion, we are happy with the scooter and Varla quality. When we do out grow this scooter, we’ll buy another Varla product for sure.

I am a large man. Think defensive tackle. But I like to ride. I find the ride comfortable and enjoy my Pegasus as much as possible. I can take any hill and consistently hit 28mph. I enjoy it so much I would replace it with the same if something happens. I am over 122 miles no with no problems.

I love the scooter! this is my first scooter. I had to buy one after getting one of those rentals. I drive semi trucks all around the country and thought it would be a fun activity or way to get to the store etc, when I'm off duty. I wanted to get a bigger one, but this is about as big as I wanted to get and be able to put it in the back of my truck. I've been storing it on my top bunk in the back of my truck. it goes 28 mph, and I've gotten at least 20 miles of range, driving with both motors as fast as it will go. I'm scared to test it exactly how far it goes. I am 6'1 and 220 lb it goes up hills great and has enough power to get me around. I wish all of these scooters were longer, and wider. but this one is about as long as they get. it could be a little wider but, other than that it's very comfortable. I'm really glad I went ahead and bought one! the quality of this is great it's very solid aluminum, and have had no problems with it s reliability. I highly recommend the scooter especially for people who travel!

So I bought my Pegasus basically to avoid the bus and cut out public transportation all together somtimes here in Portland and it has done the trick I love it saves me so much time and energy of walking the scooter is great I've had to adjust the rear brakes and actually just got done having to remove the back wheel assembly to tighten the caliper mount brakes it took about a hour and a half but I haven't been easy on the back brakes either and jumping off curbs and anything I can launch my self off along my path I put blue lock tight on and dont expect the problem to reacure the Pegasus well it's super fast sometimes I get places faster then if I had a car due to traffic I have adjusted the p settings for acceleration and recycled the top speed so I have gotten over 30 mph but it's not needed the only thing I wish is that I had a lil more battery reserves but it's good enough long as u don't drive it like u stole it every where so if ur on the fence about it I say buy it u wont regret it I've put 300 miles on mine in about 3 weeks definitely love it

Overall very pleased with the scooter performance and pricing have over 100miles on it and has held up well wish I knew if I could purchase another battery for it which haven’t seen on the site so far. My ride experiences have been very fun so far with it kinda wish I could go little faster and further yet in the city commute very nice ride jumping curbs and back onto asphalt to dirt is exhilarating I’m glad they decided to go with the 9” tubeless tires though very smooth controlled ride. I recommend this scooter as it fits the happy medium of speed and portability. I’m pleased with my purchase

I love my Pegasus scooter. It’s fast and very fun to ride!

I have 9inch tubeless tire version and I cannot recommend this version enough. The scooter rides smoothly thanks to the dual suspension and the softer tubeless tires. 200 miles in and I'm yet to deal with a flat

The sturdy construction and comfortable ride quality exceed my expectations.

My 1st Expression is "WOW,!!" our 1st VARLA Electric Scooter Fun to Use like Going to Work and having ride's with my Friends, and i Love the way is Run's the Only thing that i don't Like is the Foot dek is Too short, but All and All Work's Good for me and Iove riding it, I am a Electric Rider I Use a Big and more Fast Electric Scooter Like my Solar FF Lite E-Scooter........... But the Price of this Varla Pegasus for a Dual Motor its Worth it Love riding it ^,..,^

Been riding the Varla for a week or so at full power. I have previous experience with kqi3 pro. Pegasus is a big upgrade. Steering took me a minute to enjoy or get used to, but now I see why it's so stiff. Just got to find your line. The brakes are the weakest point of the scooter, I really dislike them and am looking at ways to upgrade them. They squeak horribly every stop, and I have watched all the videos on eliminating noise, none worked. Feels like the pads material is not right. Everything else is great on this unit, I took an extra measure of waterproofing it with silicon and loctite blue on all the screws. It goes up to 31mph for me and that is quicker than you might think. I got a fast charger from fluidfreeride and it charges within a few hours now. I am already considering an eagle one or pro so friends can come ride with me. Might check out another brand due to brakes as well unless I find a hack/fix. That brake thing just kills me. Noone else seems to complain about brakes though so it might just be me.

Very impressed with the quality of this scooter. Nice build. Only downside is price dropped $100ea a week after our purchase of 2 scooters, which mean we could have ordered 2 seats and still spent less, but still very happy with our purchase.

I LOVE my Pegasus!! I've traveled over 500 mi on it already, and love every mile on it.
I purchased my Pegasus due to a bad back. I wanted to get out again. This machine is not only helping me save gas, and get along, but also helps with my bi polar disorder by calming me every time I get on my Pegasus. I'm hoping to upgrade to the all terrain one as I want to go trail riding too. Maybe one day. Goals!!!

I started with a basic scooter. Upgraded to a Pegasus. Get the 9 inch wheels. The styling is unique. It moves, the cornering and handing is amazing.

I use it to commute to work up and down big hills. It has no problems with the hills and still gets amazing battery life. Would definitely recommend.
