From Segway's website about the i series:
-----------
Payload:
Passenger: 250 lbs (110 kg)
The Segway HT is the optimal short-distance travel solution, with the capacity to carry up to a 250 lb. adult.
------------

So yes, as long as the 250 pound rider is not wearing 10 pounds in clothing, or carrying a backpack, etc. The 250 lb limit was said to be the limit on the electronics in the platform one stands upon. The e series can also handle an additional 75 pounds in specially designed bags strategically placed on the vehicle.
