The Difference Between The Segway & Sur-ron 

Sur-Ron: "We are from China" Segway: "Hope you don't notice this is Chinese"

you can control how the throttle, power, and regen on the segway via bluetooth on your phone.

The programmability of the Segway by phone is a nice feature along with the standard cable-less throttle. It would be nice to dial in exactly what regen and throttle reaction you desire.

Imagine how much better they will get in next few years with battery tech exploding ! 200km range and 15kw peak power as standard . Cant wait !

The Kuberg seems like the most fun. Test rode one and it was mind blowing

Saw 2 of these ripping down some fire roads I was on yesterday with my dirtbike. Looked really cool, had no idea they were electric!

I’ve been trying to find that second less beefy surron bike option and for some reason I can’t find it. Did they get rid of it? If not do you have a link to the cheaper option

Hello all I just purchased the Segway x260 for 3,999.00 on BestBuy website. Out the door it was &4,300.00 with CA tax added ish! I should be getting it in two weeks. Yes it’s more then the Sur-Ron but I like that I can control futures over the app and color options I was able to choose from personal preferences I’d say.

Researched this a while ago. Good vid.

Id go with Sur Ron. Good job really, as I already have one :D

Do you think that these could fit on a normal mountain bike tray rack in a 1.25" receiver?

Segway was originally an American company. It struggled being profitable and eventually was bought by the Chinese company Ninebot (the same co. that had been stealing segway's intellectual property for years). Ninebot now not only owns Segway, but is the largest share holder of Sur Ron. They are essentially the same bike. The main difference is that Sur Ron is made in China and Segway is still manufactured in the United States. That's why Segway is more expensive.

Awesome review, thanks

How long until you have to replace the battery completely ? And can you ride this on the side walk like down town or will the po po bug you?

starts at 1:03

What does the Segway 160. 260. delineate if anything?

Thank you so much for making this video

youre right i do love the segway color scheme. i think the segway has an electronic throttle thats better and more control with the regen braking in the app. but def not worth the price increase.

Is the length of the bikes center of axle/ axle or outside tire/ tire. The Segway has a lot of bells and whistles I don't really see a need for. Things like those are what give up first.

Maybe you should've compared after purchase which company is better ie customer service, parts tech issues etx

I got my Segway and I completely love it

I have both & the bikes are exactly the same except the Segway X260 has a larger battery with about 25 miles more range per charge. Segway has always been a "silent" partner of the SurRon company & yes the majority shareholder and has just decided to take over the brand as the majority shareholder under the Segway brand name. Put it this way if it weren't for Segway funding SurRon the bikes wouldn't exist!

The Segway has region downhill it charges itself it also has a bluetooth app that allows you to adjust work and overall motor output allowing you to adjust how hard the throttle takes off and how much power the motor puts out the Segway you can limit the amount of power the motor is putting out along with how fast it will accelerate basically Al hard the throttle hits when you gun it! Plus the regeneration when going downhill off throttle it will charge itself but it's very minimal basically it has regeneration in the Bluetooth app that allows you to control the torque and motor power for limiting depending on Rider. I don't know if that's worth the extra money or not but it is pretty cool

Have both . Segway is actually principal co. that partnered w sur-ron before offering there own model. Programming /coding is written slighltly different for extended battery distance claims and throttle curves etc. Segway coding is bit more polished than sur-ron but in real world between both I notice no difference. I also got the sur-ron pedals installed on Segway

Nice comparison 👍🏻

I got a serious question how fast does it feel like what cc bike can you compare it too like 110cc 125cc

Both are awesome 😂😂👍💚💚

A lot of ebike brands do this. I've seen many different co buy Chinese bikes and just ad there name and ship them.. You can actually buy them directly from China and save about 15-30%. but shipping is expensive..

is there a difference between Sur-Ron X, Sur-Ron firefly and Sur-Ron light bee? i can't seem to spot the difference i only hear the different names from time to time. I'm looking to buy one in the near future but i only seem to find the firefly, no light bee, no X. the only different one I've seen is the storm bee but not for sale

Do i need a motorcycle driver license in CA

Segway range may be better as is has a tweekable power and response along with selectable re-gen, done via an app.

Surron, Luna mine was delivered today

Lmao they just were like "yo imma do that now"

Btw Segway is now $3500 so what would you do? I'm about to pull trigger

Every bicycle manufacturer makes multiple price range bikes on the same frame/dimensions. You’re going to get the same numbers. The difference is in the components...which this video does not even mention, does one have better suspension, wheels, lights? Maybe, maybe not, can’t tell from this poor excuse of comparison.

So what's up with the Segway App? I bought a Luna X Sur Ron after learning about them... thanks to Segway. I'm stoked on Luna and their service and knowledge, 100%. I saw some shit about being able to tune the controller with the App. Not that I need another App or want one to control my bike... just curious.

can you put a 72v battery in the segway x260

Is the Sur Ron battery swappable also?

I bought Segway x160 on indiegogo for $2500. Love it!

Do you know of any differences in the BMS and Controllers? Supposedly the x260 has a 100 amp controller and the Sur Ron has 80 amp. Similar I heard the Sur Ron's BMS prevents anything higher than 80 amps unless you go Sur Ron XX or aftermarket, where as the x260 uses all 100 amps. I've read this in quite a few places but haven't seen a thing official from either source. Just curious what you've heard.

i did my pre-order june 30th for the surron!!!!...only possible reason i can see for goin with the segway is.... if the delivery date is not acceptable from surron.... but i'll wait a couple weeks 2 save a $1400.00.....lololol

Where are you finding the sur on so cheap??

Motorino in Vancouver has the segways and surrons priced the same

Luna Worked with Sur Ron for a couple years to develope and commit to hundreds of units to get that bike to a top quality bike. The guys at Luna really did a lot of work. Sad to see what could come of the Surron, Segway could pull their leverage and end the Sur Ron. If I was a capitalist pig, I would end all sales to Luna,,BUT IM NOT. I’m loyal to Luna for life.... they earned it, Segway just bought their way in......Lame....

I was wondering the difference so Thank you. Sur Ron better choice. 10 more miles isn't worth that price for the Segway

I think the app the Segway x260 makes it worth it alone especially if it helps not having to cut any wires and help with security

This shows how name branding works. Same exact product, 39% more expensive.

Where to get one in Canada

Id take the vector vortex

i wait a tesla model!

youtube algorithm showed me this and I love this Sur-ron. But it is over my budget. Can you review X-Class from Ariel Rider E-bikes ?

Segway has electronic throttle, front fender, rear mud guard, chain guard, and the Bluetooth app. That is the main difference.. Unless that app is worth $1000, the upgrades aren’t worth it. You can buy the fenders and guards and an electronic throttle for a couple hundred bucks. All suspension is DMN on the Segways that I’ve seen in person, so the exact same as my SurRon, the Segway has a red spring though.

Are they both waterproof?

I want to buy the one that can be titled and legally street driven.

That discount code does not work

Sur-ron I have 2 😁

Sur-Ron it is 😂

I feel like the segway actually uses the older NON "x" controller and that's how they get the extra few miles...

I'll be paying more for the segway. The app control and colors appeal to me I will be buying the x160 not the x260

What I want to know is can a 6ft4in 230lbs person ride this thing it looks small but I can't tell

If you value Segway's brand recognition, style, possibly better support and smartphone app for spend the extra money.

So, "Segway" stickers are most expensive sickers in th world?)) $3600 Sur Ron+"Segway" stickers = $ 4800?

Luna Cycle is the place to get your Sir Ronnie

Segways controller to edit the bike is all through the app

I'M 1 WEEK AWAY FROM ORDERING THE "BLACK_EDITION".......... STOKED AZ FUK !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

You should never trust a manufacturer's range claim. Look at the battery watt-hours. All things being equal, more watt-hours = more range. Period. Segway's claim of greater range is easily manipulated, because there is no standard testing cycle for range claims.

I don’t understand.. electric mountain bike? Or replacing dirt bikes

Sur ron mate

Segway just saw the profits sur ron was making and just made their own because they can because they are major share holders. Sur ron cheaper and better than segway.

Can you make these street legal?

Don't know how you get those prices, but in Europe the Segway is cheaper

The segway is on indigogo for 3499

Sur Ron

I actually found a Segway for $3,000. Looks to be same body style. Its listed on a BEST BUY website. I have yet to call the number listed for more info...I was going to 20 minutes ago but have been caught up watching many Sur Ron and Segway reviews. Also, about a month and a half ago I saw on the news, Segway was done. More than likely, it was with their Segway. Being that they are in Partnership now with the Sur Ron. Correct me if I am wrong, but I believe I heard that Segway had something to do with the batteries specifically, on these bikes.

Omg the worse rushed comparison ever 😫

Segway you can change regenative breaking on the phone, unlock speed parameters from phone, charging of battery limits from phone, and a few other things. Suron you have to literally clip wires and by-pass wires to unlock stuff.......so if you are okay with messing with electronics go with suron if not? Go with segway

Bruh any electric pit/dirt bike for under £1000

They both look like they could only support someone under 6 feet.

Sur ron makes the segway x260

What Segway is doing is not how you compete for market shares..... 🤣 It you buy the Segway just for the name..paying more for the same bike....stupid you. But still interesting to see something happening in that segment. Still watching from the sidelines.

Poop !

ur video dement-ions are way off kinda cheesy

They are just rebranded, which simply means reboxed and new stickers. Most products out of China are done this way. Been happening for years. You don’t even need to own stock in a company to do it.

Dude, why don't you just leave the specifications on length, weight, etc. on the screen rather than vocalize it? Your review changes from a neutral 3rd-party informative review to an informercial with your style, constantly cutting to action videos. LAME.

Looks like Segway is just a money grab.

Thank you for making this video. I'll be buying the Surron instead of the Segway. Segway is owned by a Chinese company now, and tbh I don't trust China. Plus the all black looks way better, and the supposed 10 extra miles is probably a lie.

not bad for a cheap chines bike to slow and to small for most people and to slow not legal in many western countries on the road or paved areas, my old motorbike is faster in first gea
