MAX video uploaded
Thanks everyone for your comments.
I have just uploaded a video from last week showing MAX out and about on a beach in southern New Zealand: To answer a few questions: -We have no immediate plans to sell into the USA -Price in U$ is about eight grand (ie the MAX only, no Segway, no GST, VAT etc). cheers Tony |

Thanks for the video. The MSRP @ $8K is out of many Segway owner's price range but then again...............the Segway is out of most people's price range. Hope you have much success with your product. It will be a life-changer for the few that can afford it.

Wow, very nice indeed!
While I hope it is many years indeed before I need a full-time seated solution such as this, I really like your design, your video, and that it drops into an unmodified Segway. I talk to a lot of people with disabilities in my daily travels, and there's a lot who would benefit from your product. There would, of course, be challenges, pricing and lack of insurance coverage for such solutions being among them. But I hope you find great success in NZ, and I hope you find a way to bring that success to the US!
