Designed for recreational cycling and outdoor exploration on suitable surfaces, the M26-2 PLUS combines pedal-assisted performance with a sturdy carbon steel frame, front suspension and Shimano 7-speed gearing.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe manufacturer lists a 250W motor with up to 750W peak output and 80Nm of torque. These figures describe different motor characteristics: peak output is not the same as maximum continuous rated power. The standard European configuration is advertised with pedal assistance limited to 25km\/h (15.5mph).\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe upgraded 48V 18Ah removable battery provides 864Wh of nominal energy capacity. VARUN advertises an assisted range of approximately 70–150km, depending on terrain, rider weight, assistance settings, temperature, and other operating conditions. The battery includes a key-operated lock and a battery management system.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eFive selectable pedal-assist levels allow riders to adjust the amount of electrical support. A cadence sensor detects pedalling activity, while the Shimano 7-speed drivetrain provides mechanical gear selection for varying gradients and surface conditions.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe M26-2 PLUS features a lockable front suspension fork designed to help absorb bumps on uneven surfaces. Its wide 26 x 4.0-inch tyres offer a substantial contact area and additional cushioning when correctly inflated for the intended surface.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eFront and rear mechanical disc brakes provide braking control, while the LCD display shows essential riding information, including speed, battery status, distance and assistance level. Additional features include an LED front headlight, a brake-activated rear light and a rear rack.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eImportant UK EAPC Information:\u003c\/strong\u003e VARUN describes the standard European configuration as a 250W pedal-assisted electric bicycle with assistance limited to 25km\/h.
