The Segway® Cross-Terrain Transporter (XT) is the latest self-balancing human transporter that provides enhanced performance on a variety of terrain with minimal environmental impact. Featuring all-terrain tires, a robust new fender design, new extended-range lithium-ion batteries and specially tuned software, this rugged Segway XT will go practically anywhere you want to go.

The Segway XT has been specifically developed for stability, comfort and performance on uneven and tough terrain. The Segway XT's low-pressure tires cushion the ride on bumpy surfaces and minimize trail impact, while a continuous center rib provides a smooth ride on paved surfaces. The wider track increases stability on uneven ground, and the Segway XT's software has been modified to support the new tire size and to supply improved control and performance. It is capable of operating on a variety of surfaces including sand, grass, gravel, dirt and pavement. Depending on local regulations, it may be possible to use the Segway XT on multi-use pathways but it is not intended for use on sidewalks or pedestrian walkways.

The Segway XT is also one of our first products to be released with lithium-ion batteries. The increased energy capacity of the standard lithium-ion batteries support the demands of the Segway XT, while still providing a 10 mile off-pavement range, depending on terrain, riding style and payload.

The sturdy fenders on the Segway XT are designed to protect the rider from debris and to safeguard the rider during leaning turns. The aluminum fender frames feature built-in lift handles that help you (and a friend!) get a grip on the Segway XT for loading in and out of a vehicle. Bronze sport striping on black fenders combine with the polished aluminum wheels to create a machine of rugged beauty.

Chuck, looks like the front end of cain73 DS.

Yeah and even at 12.5 MPH it's still faster and more reliable than Big Daddy's Blaster  I saw the quad version in a magazine. Looks cool but why get a quad instead of the stand version. Not going to be hitting any tricks or trails on that thing.

Can you imagine if you could mount a shee or rappy power plant and keep the gyro capabilities. You wouldn't have room for the big ba!!$ it would take ti ride it, lmao.
I think its very cool though, I've been following this guy since he started rumors of the segway coming to market.
He lives on an island and is brilliant, out of the box thinker.  :ThumbsUp.gif
