Our goal is to make the 2nd generation Segway® as useful as possible by providing the SegSaddle, a seating system that allows you to stand or sit while riding your i2 or x2 Segway®.
The video below shows you how the SegSaddle equipped i2 Segway® is of more use to more people.
- The SegSaddle is designed to allow the rider to mount normally, then adjust the seat height to allow for seated or standing operation of the Segway.
- The seat has been designed to provide hours of riding comfort.
- The seat post fits into the SegSaddle Frame which is bolted to the Segway base.
- The SegSaddle Frame includes a Shock Absorber that is tuned for the weight of the primary rider when the SegSaddle is ordered. Additional Shock Springs may be purchased, and easily changed out by the owner to provide multiple riders with the best possible ride.
Where: SegSaddle LLC is in San Antonio Texas. The SegSaddle is assembled by SegSaddle LLC, with parts coming from around the US.
When: We’ve been working on the SegSaddle since the summer of 2007. The first long term test unit was delivered in May of 2008 to a test engineer in Pittsburgh PA. As of October 2009 he had travelled over 1,000 miles while seated on his SegSaddle. The test program has resulted in a much better seat, and a host of refinements in the design and fabrication of the SegSaddle.
Who: The SegSaddle has been developed by SegSaddle LLC. The founders of SegSaddle LLC are BGRH Investments LLC and Wallis Design LLC. BGRH Investments is owned by a long term entrepreneur with experience ranging from transatlantic cables to hybrid rocket motors to bioinformatics. Wallis Design is owned by a Mountain Unicyclist / Designer / Prototype Builder. The founders met while developing the Insolia High Heel Shoe Insert.
