Very good value
I am giving this a five star as review as it has worked out great for me. I am an old guy of seventy two and recently had a knee replacement . With a knee replacement you need to exercise your knee but not put pressure on it. So I can use the electric to get me up the hills and pedal gently down the hills. It was not very difficult to put together, came with in a reasonable time and compared to other bikes was very affordable.The fact it folds up is huge benefit, although heavy so it helps me to take the battery out when loading into my pick up. So far customer service has been helpful, courteous and timely. I am not a avid bike rider so cant speak to the mechanics of the unit. To me it seems to operate just fine. Gears are smooth in transition and breaks work fine. You can adjust the seat and the handle bars easily. I have only had it a few weeks so I don’t know how it holds up in the long run but nothing about it seems cheap but I do think the wear of constantly folding and unfolding it will undoubtedly be harder on it than bikes that do not have that feature. The user manual is well written and not some two page instructions in poor English. I have had much pleasure being able to get outside into the fresh air and rehab my knee at the same time.MF

Completely Satisfied with this bike
Received in late May have ridden it non stop as it is my only transport around townIt is very powerful, steady riding and I love that it folds. Since I had it I have rode probably over 100 miles and it is very reliable with the amount of battery life it has. I get around 15 miles on level 3 without pedaling and I have rode all around my city (maybe 30 miles) on level 2 with a little bit left overI enjoy riding this bike very much

I wish I knew…
There’s a lot to like about this bike (that others have already mentioned), so I’m going to focus on the negatives. First, the type of battery in this bike seems relatively rare and expensive. The lowest price I’ve found is $270 for the whole unit, and if you were to disassemble it to replace the actual battery inside, I can’t find any that include cables on both the top and bottom as required hereMore importantly, I wish I knew how limiting the lack of gears is—the 7 gears only lets me comfortably get to around 10 mph. So, if you want to go faster, peddling is pointless. A bigger problem is how aggressive the throttle and peddle assist are: at the lowest setting, a light touch will send it lurching forward and almost feels unsafe at low speeds, although I may get used to it over timeLastly, mine had some bad chain and brake rubbing that needed to be fixed. Be aware that it may require tuning out-of-box, although the overall build quality is excellent for the price

It’s a good ride.
I got the C-20 Black, and it’s a good looking bike. Easy assembly. Although, it’s like 70lbs and I live up a flight of stairs, I thought it was easy to hold and carry. I’m 5’8 and I can sit comfortably with my feet to the ground with the seat near the lowest. I’m probably the minimum height, if that helps. I weigh 160lbs and was able to really float on this bike. The motor did well uphill. It’s a lot of fun, and I found myself pedaling with no power in certain situations just because. Handles well.My dislikes? There’s a slight delay when I twist the throttle before the motor kicks in. Perhaps that’s normal with electric bikes? I’m not sure. It’s my first e-bike after all. I did get used to used to it, and for me, it’s nothing to take a star away from the rating.I think VARUN makes good bikes, and perhaps we’ll see more reviews on places like YouTube. They deserve it.

VaRun E Bike
I originally bought the 26 inch city cruiser for myself to keep up with grandkids on bike rides, I am having a blast!So for their Birthday I just bought them each a 20 mini folding cruiser, they went together very smoothly, one was missing tail light, trying to get that replaced, and now one of the batteries will not take a charge.The ACTUAL VARUN store will not help with anything as this was purchased from one of their vendors and they say they need to handle that. It has been difficult to try to contact EBICYCLE that sells this product, I reached out to Amazon today, they will try to contact seller to see if they will resolve this issue.I will wait and see then go back to my review. Bikes were delivered June 7th put together on June 10th, as of June 13th one batter will not charge…Customer service has reached out to me, and we are working on the issues.

Very Good build quality and Performace
Using this product alongside my son has been an incredibly enjoyable experience. We’ve had a great deal of fun utilizing it, especially noting its impressive performance when navigating obstacles such as curbs. The product has exceeded my initial expectations, and I am thoroughly pleased with its performance thus far.Nevertheless, I believe it’s important to spend more time assessing its long-term durability and resilience. Having used it for over a month now, my evaluation is largely positive. The product has demonstrated smooth operation under various conditions, including when my son and I use it simultaneously. This experience has provided me with valuable insights into its capabilities and potential areas for improvement.

Great for petite person
My wife loves it. I did a lot of research before I purchased and I had to be specific because she is 5’0” and 100lbs. So a 20” was perfect. She is not an experienced rider And she won’t go fast so sticking to a class 1 e-bike (20mph) was the way to go. Got a good deal on this too because I wasn’t looking for anything too expensive. Shipping was expensive but that was expected. I ride a Onewheel so this was perfect for the wife so she can share adventures with me and the kids. If you are in the same boat, you will not regret the purchase.

Foldable E-bike
I really like riding this bike. Getting up there in age so it’s nice to have help getting up those hills, etc. Only bad thing is that it is very heavy.

Good investment
The chain was very loose and it says that it last for 40miles but only last for 25miles. Rides good and easy to fold up. Overall, still a good investment.

Varun ebike
My wife and i do a lot of camping, we bought 2 varun 20” ebikes and have a blast on them. We don’t have the wide wheels on them but we still ride on the paths in the woods without a problem.. batteries last along time , the only thing is we replaced is the seats with more comfortable ones for our big buts….lol

Good Quality
The C20-1 is solid and well-built. Haven’t been on a bike in over 30 years and I put over 10 miles on it my first ride and am impressed with the power. I would buy another one.

Initial impressions: Seems like a nice bike
Upon unboxing and first steps of assembly, the bike seems to be made solidly of quality components. I will update review with photos when I have finished assembly and the local New England weather allows me to test ride it.Update after completing assembly and first rides:Initial impressions are holding up, bike still seems of good quality. Assembly was straightforward but I highly recommend watching the video in the product description (the one with the thumbnail that says “The Third Paper”). This video shows the assembly steps in a much clearer fashion than the printed manual.After assembly the typical adjustments are required, such as front brake alignment and rear derailleur stops. These are straightforward and I recommend watching a guide on Youtube if you aren’t familiar with the process.The motor is powerful enough that you can get up to speed without pedaling at all, which is nice to have as an option. Despite being rated at 350W I was surprised to see that it managed to climb my steep driveway without pedal assist, which is something my 450W electric scooter is not able to do.The battery pack is removable, with a charge level indicator and a key to enable/disable. Removing the key also causes a locking stud to extend from the battery pack, fixing the battery to the bike frame and preventing it from being removed/stolen.Overall I’m happy so far with the purchase and looking forward to nicer springtime weather so I can test the range of the bike.

Great bike
I really do enjoy this bike. It’s great to get me to where I need to be and can turn off the pedal assist when I want to use the bike regularly and get some exercise in. Had a little trouble with the bike seat initially, but company support was helpful in resolving it. It’s an eye catcher and have gotten many compliments riding it so far!

Great bike.
This bike is a pretty solid bike. I was a bit shocked for the cheaper end ebikes. I have put 60 miles on it so far and it has done everything they claimed it would do.

Good Quality, but good to be able to have repair skills
As someone who takes the train every day to commute to work, the bike works well to get to and from the train station. However the wrenches that come with the bike can be a bit too small to get some nuts tight enough. The 12 month warranty that comes with the bike is great too.

190lb – 6’2 male – LOVE THE BIKE!
Fairly easy to assemble. Knees and back feel extremely comfortable on this unit, I just need to upgrade the seat for better comfort at my dimensions. Got the bike to assist when exhaustion hits through hills and the speed of the bike does not disappoint. Often ride it powered off just because it’s comfortable to cruise around the neighborhood on.
