Default Segfree

I happened across the Segfree Wheelchair Segway, relatively new on the market. Thought it looked interesting.......particularly the kickstand.

Although I would like to get a good look at that too........with the steering column removed and the landing gear down......it should be like sitting in a regular chair. I have requested info. on USA availability which I will post on reply.

Estimated cost seems much more affordable than other options on the market:
Segfree i2 96,270 ZAR = $9,014

The reply on cost of the Segfree is $3800.00 plus an $850.00 shipping quote from DHL for a grand total of $4650.00.

I will ask about available video of users mounting and/or dismounting the Segfree. Seems like a reasonable option compared to other products on the market. I will also try to contact a user to get a firsthand review of the product.

You can follow the development of the Segfree on the Apparelyzed forum. The pricing you mentioned sounds about right for the kit.
