snakebite Posted August 15, 2016 Share Posted August 15, 2016 Well after finally getting my mini back from Segway repair the second time riding it developed a squeak at the wheel (attached video). It was heading back home with it i went into a turn came out and was going around 8mph and all of a sudden it felt like it wasn't balancing me. I didn't fall but hitting the ground running at 51 years old sure hurts the knees. Damn ouch! Early August Segway replaced the main board and re-seated the battery because it lost all power. Well this time its going back to Amazon for a replacement. ninebot wheel.mp4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WilliamG Posted August 16, 2016 Share Posted August 16, 2016 I'd definitely get a replacement at this point. That's just not acceptable. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TLyleJeep Posted August 16, 2016 Share Posted August 16, 2016 Wow that's a loud squeak. It's kind of scary that you lost all power while riding, you put your faith in technology and hope it does not fail when you are using it. Glad you were able to step off and not hit the ground!

Good observation. Tires touching the wheel caps is a good sign of a low tire pressure.. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
