Segway launches the ZT3 Pro electric scooter and Xyber electric bike, starting at 3,399 Yuan ($468)
Segway has launched two new electric vehicles: the ZT3 Pro electric scooter and the Xyber off-road electric bike. The ZT3 Pro is practical for urban riders, with a range of 40 kilometers and a starting price of 3,399 yuan ($468). The Xyber, priced from 9,999 yuan ($1,378), caters to off-roaders with its extended range of 105 kilometers and features like adjustable suspension. Both models boast smart features like keyless unlocking and OTA upgrades.
Call me old-fashioned, I don't need OTA upgrades on my electrical scooter or bike. All this does is create a possibility that features that worked when I bought the product stop working later. Also makes me wonder if that is a potential backdoor to the keyless unlocking they boast about.
Call me old fashioned, but back in my day, bikes used pedals and scooters required feet and we didn't have none of that devil electro-lonical stuff at all.
I moonlight in a bike shop and mainly repair electric scooters and bikes.
Instead of adding even more shit that can break, I wish they would engineer their scooters into being more reliable.
In addition to breaking often, finding spare parts is a nightmare. Vendors completely ignoring requests.
Granted, Segway is one of the better ones.
Who are the reputable scooter manufacturers? I've never heard of anybody call a scooter company great, are there just not any?
bicycles do not fucking need internet onnectivity.
