The Real Segway Experience....
I was lucky enough to meet a guy (Antony) in Madrid who is Mr Segway!
A World Segway Slalom champion from a few years ago who runs a small private tour called MadSegs.com
Antony knows just about everything there is to know about Segway technology and kindly spent hours with me
He also was prepared to show me how to do a few advanced things and really increased my confidence using PT devices
This was also a valuable experience trying the different steering configurations used on the Segway designs over time. I am now thinking the original non-lean steer methods would be my preference.
Total self balancing.......
Riding with side angles.....
Stairs.....
And just relaxed riding.....
Rod, Antony gave me this old motor.....
(0 - 11,000 or13,000 rpm and the gear box reduction is 36:1 used with 17" wheels)
The approximately 2kw motors have 2 sets of windings (in case one fails!) - one set is damaged on this unit and no use to him
Motor gearbox assembly.....
The electronics - everything is duplicated!
100% redundancy......

Company that makes them......
Segway HT P133 (P Series)
In Antony's view the best bang for used dollar out there.....
