About
The Quella ELECTRIC Varsity range maintains a vintage retro design with a revolutionary electric motor. The motor and battery fit neatly inside the rear hub in a handsome, stainless steel plated body that enables partial re-charging whilst you ride – say goodbye to sweaty rides (if you want to!). You can arrive at work fresh as a daisy or regulate the power to have a great workout.
Our electric hub has 4 power levels –
- No assist (manual riding)
- Eco mode – Pedal assist with maximum distance (50/60km) from one charge.
- Turbo – Maximum pedal assistance up to 25km/h with a maximum power of 250W.
- Turbo Custom – Create your own Pedelec power mode! You can change 2 parameters: the amount of BOOST the motor gives you at low speed and the overall amount of ASSISTANCE factor of the motor.
There is no need for tax, insurance or a licence as this innovative motor is compliant with EAPC law.
Bluetooth technology links the hub to your phone so you manage your hub settings through an app. The hub incorporates a regenerative KERS (Kinetic Energy Recuperation System) braking system, similar technology as used in Formula One engines, energy is converted to recharge and power the battery whilst back-pedalling and simultaneously slowing the bicycle down.
Extremely lightweight the Quella e-bike starts at just 13.9kg for our 51 and 54cm frames and 15.2kg for our 58 and 61cm frames.
Our eye-catching Varsity Edinburgh is named after Scotland’s most prestigious university town. This single speed bike is painted with an attractive stone grey frame, evocative of Edinburgh’s famous stone architecture.

FAQ
All our bikes are sent out as single-speed by default, but if you would like yours to be set up in fixed-gear simply mention this in the comments section of your order. Thanks to the Flip-Flop hub you can easily switch between the two by simply turning the rear wheel around.
In single-speed, the wheels move independently of pedal rotations, allowing you to coast. In fixed gear, if the wheels are moving then so are the pedals – just like a child’s tricycle.
Your bicycle will arrive 85% assembled. You will need to attach the wheels, pedals, handlebars, adjust the seat post to the correct height and tighten all the bolts. The required tools are sent with the bike and we have created videos to help with assembly, just head to the ‘QUELLA HOW TO’S’ on YouTube. We recommend getting the bike build checked over by a mechanic to ensure your bicycle is ready to ride. Shipping direct to your local bike store for assembly is possible.
P.S. the easiest mistake to make is putting the pedal in the wrong side which can cause threading. There are letters on the end of the pedals with R or L to let you know which side of the bicycle to insert. It should require little to no pressure to turn in.
