I wonder who supplies the motor, it seems to have been in development for last 3 years.

Their factory better have some strong steel doors if you expect to get one soon.

Chinese clone just like all the junk ebikes out there (i know it has a motor), you should see all of the one-off never heard of shocks/lights etc. They just bolted on a generator to run the electric motors. lets see the scales on this thing

Segway specs indicate two dry weights, 2181 and 2247... guessing the 64" and 72" models respectively?

I like the V8 sound in the video.

I talked to someone over the weekend that has driven the Segway.   He works for one of the UTV publication.   He said it was a mix of all the UTVs and the power was just so so.
