Rotorblades,

You may want to look into the tall lean seat. It is made by the same people who make the segvator.

The advantage of the lean seats, is that you can stand, and sit, or sort of 1/2 and 1/2 when you want to. This is a good option for many people who would rather stand, but want to also be able to take a break.

Good luck on your sale...

Just for info... unfortuantely the SegSaddle has been discontinued from manufactor. I dont know if they still make the "lean seat," I would suspect not, but don't know that. If you go to the SegSaddle web page, you will get a link to 2 segway dealers that may support your segsaddle needs. One is in FL and the other in OR. I have 2 segSaddles and have contacted both dealers, FL has been very responsive.

Sorry, mis-read your post Karl, thought the lean seat was by SegSaddle, not SegVator. Thats good news that its made by the SegVator crew then. My info about the SegSaddle being discontinued is correct though.

Default High Lean Seat is Available

I've been using the SegVator brand High Lean Seat with RoHo Cushions for several years with excellent results. It's available only through Segway dealers.

I am looking for a kickstand I can use with my 4Freedom GlidR seated X2 Segway which is fitted with a Right-sided 'side-steering adaptation. My problem is having the Segway remain stationary while I mount/dismount the seat while having a weight (pack) attached to the rear? I am considering a kickstand. But, the only ones I've seen available attach to the front and, would not preven backwards leaning/motion when I am not seated. Any ideas? Thanks,

Graham
