Powerful motor and versatile 26-inch wheels
You'll feel the smooth, responsive push from the 48V 250W brushless motor, perfectly tuned to UK regulations for electric bikes. The whole bike weighs just 53 lbs, yet it can carry up to 19 stone, making it a sturdy choice for both mountain trails and city commutes. The 26-inch tyres give you confident grip whether you're tackling a rocky bridleway or nipping through town.
The removable lithium-ion battery packs a generous 374.4Wh, so you can easily take it indoors to charge or top it up while it's still on the bike. Every VARUN e-bike comes with a throttle that you can fit yourself if you wish, but always check local UK road law before using it. You get multiple riding modes – electric, pedal-assist, pure pedalling, walk-assist, and cruise – so you're always in control.
The walk-assist mode gives you a gentle boost when you're pushing the bike, handy on steep canal towpaths or when you're navigating a stile. With the Shimano 21-speed gear system, you've got three chainrings up front and seven at the back, giving you a huge range of combinations to match any gradient or headwind. It's all about saving your energy for the fun bits.

Key specs for your next adventure
This model, the M26-2, is built around a fast 250W brushless motor that delivers 55 Nm of torque – plenty of grunt for climbing hills up to 30° (though we don't recommend long slogs on very steep slopes). The 48V 7.8Ah battery gives you a real-world range of 25 to 50 miles in electric mode, and up to 50 miles in boost mode, depending on how much you pedal and the load you're carrying.
Shimano's 21-speed drivetrain and mechanical disc brakes with 160mm rotors give you precise control and stopping power in wet British weather. The LCD display keeps you informed, while the new aluminium fork soaks up bumps. It suits riders from about 5ft 1in to 6ft 5in, and the battery charges in 4 to 6 hours with the included 42V 2A charger.
Perfect fit for everyday riding
The bike stands 45 inches tall and stretches 67 inches long, with the saddle adjustable between 31 and 39 inches off the ground. The handlebars sit at a comfortable 39 to 43 inches, so you can dial in a relaxed, upright position for pottering around town or a more aggressive stance for off-road fun. At 52 lbs, it's manageable to lift onto a bike rack or carry up a few steps.
We recommend a maximum rider weight of 19 stone, and it's designed for adults aged 18 and over. The ideal height range is 5ft 1in to 6ft 5in, though we'd suggest a minimum of 4ft 11in for safe control. If you're not riding for a while, remember to keep the battery charged and store the bike somewhere dry to protect the electrics.

Effortless climbing with 55 Nm torque
That 250W brushless motor punches out 55 Nm of torque, so you'll sail up most hills without breaking a sweat. It can handle inclines up to 30°, which covers pretty much any road climb in the UK, though we'd avoid prolonged steep off-road ascents to keep the motor happy. Whether you're commuting over the South Downs or just tackling a multi-storey car park ramp, you'll appreciate the extra shove.

Ride further with a removable battery
Go the extra mile with a high-capacity 48 V 7.8 Ah lithium-ion battery that you can charge wherever suits you. It’s built to last up to 1,000 charge cycles, so you’ll enjoy reliable power for years. In pure electric mode you can cover up to 31 miles, and when you pedal along, the range extends to around 50 miles – perfect for longer weekend rides on UK bridleways.
Because the battery is fully removable, you can bring it indoors to top up at home or in the office, no need to park near a socket. Just remember, real-world range depends on hills, headwinds, and how much luggage you’re carrying, so your mileage may vary.

Stay informed with a clear LCD display
Keep your eyes on the road and your ride stats at a glance. The multifunction LCD screen shows battery level, gear, lights, speed, and more, so you always know how you’re doing. Even in bright British sunshine, the display stays crisp and easy to read, helping you focus on the joy of the ride.

Effortless shifting with 21 Shimano gears
Tackle everything from steep Cotswold climbs to flat city sprints with a smooth Shimano 21-speed drivetrain. With three chainrings up front and seven at the back, you can fine-tune your effort to match the terrain, saving energy on long commutes or weekend adventures. The precise shifting makes every ride feel more natural and enjoyable, whether you’re cruising along a canal towpath or powering up a Pennine ascent.

Ride safely day or night
See and be seen with a bright LED headlight that you control straight from the handlebar display. It cuts through dark country lanes and dimly lit city streets, helping you ride confidently after sunset. The energy-efficient design won’t drain your battery quickly, so you can keep the light on for those longer evening rides.
Stopping power comes from 160 mm mechanical disc brakes front and rear, giving you responsive, consistent braking in wet or dry conditions. Whether you’re descending a rainy hill in the Lake District or stopping at a busy London junction, these brakes perform reliably without fading, keeping you in control.

Smooth riding over bumps and ruts
You’ll stay comfortable and in control on uneven bridleways and potholed lanes thanks to the reliable dual front fork suspension. It soaks up vibrations and softens impacts, so your wrists and back don’t take a pounding. Whether you’re tackling a rocky trail or a cobbled city street, the ride feels planted and forgiving.

Grip that lasts mile after mile
The 26-inch tyres are built to resist wear, giving you dependable traction for longer. Their aggressive tread pattern bites into loose gravel and muddy paths, helping you avoid slips when the going gets tricky. You’ll notice the confidence they inspire, especially on wet British roads or leafy canal towpaths.

Light enough to lift, strong enough to last
The frame is crafted from a modern lightweight aluminium alloy, keeping the overall weight down to about 51.8 lbs. That makes it easier to carry up steps at the station or lift onto a bike rack. Despite its lightness, the frame is tough and rigid, ready for daily commutes and weekend adventures alike.

Fits riders from 5ft 1in to 6ft 5in
With a total length of 67 inches and a height of 45 inches, this e-bike suits a wide range of riders. It can carry up to 18 stone 12 lbs, and the 50.7 lb weight keeps it manageable. Whether you’re on the shorter side or well over six foot, you’ll find a comfortable riding position without feeling cramped or stretched out.
