SegwayMiniPro Posted January 11, 2019 Share Posted January 11, 2019 So I met Ivan while he was on vacation in NYC, and he flashed my MiniPro while he was here. Amazing, running stock tires I hit 14.5 Mph ... The LeanBack is very subtle keeps me in the 13 mph range. i use my Segway for Local shopping and lug on average 25-40 pounds on top of my 200 lb body weight. Uphills are faster, the Segway seems to function as it would normally operate. Ivan said he would be visiting NYC again soon so please if you are within the area let’s setup a meet so he can take care of your Segways. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MetricUSA Posted January 14, 2019 Share Posted January 14, 2019 Wow, so did he io firmware over Bluetooth? And can you go back if it did not turn out well... This would be great, it takes me 40 minutes to get home, with this I could do it in 30! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That should be a big seller! I hope they decide to keep the cost reasonable. I'm riding mine with off-road tires in the snow, and the firmware would definitely do a lot better if it wouldn't tilt back drastically whenever the grip is not 100%.

Actually from my experience it’s tilt back is drastically lower compared to the stock Firmware. I slipped on some black ice today and was able not to fall off. So the plus is your reflexes don’t have to be as sharp. Using segways Firmware will make you appreciate MRNs Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mrelwood Posted January 20, 2019 Share Posted January 20, 2019 I was unclear. I am on the latest stock firmware. This is the first time I see a potential way out! Oh man. I really want the custom firmware now! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
