The Segway Xyber reminds us a lot of the Super73 or a Yadea Trooper, with it’s dirt bike design and super wide tires. It has zippy acceleration, large display, buttons that you can access with your thumbs while holding the handlebars, and an ergonomic design. The Xyber also has 175Nm of torque, which is crazy for an E-bike.
Last year at CES, Segway told us that their flagship E-bike, the Xyber, only went 25mph. This year, however, they confirmed that it actually can reach a speed of 35mph, and can be unlocked to go even faster.
This review is based mostly on publicly available information and specifications, as we have not yet conducted a full hands-on test.
