InfoKey Wristband by Funky Move just delivered

[energetic]

From what I've read so far, there are many different ways to secure the Infokey on and off the Segway. The manufacturer has introduce a support that bolts to the LeanSteer frame and the InfoKey can be attached or detached whenever the glider wants to.

However, in some cases and especially when gliding on rough terrain, there are many cases that the InfoKey can be detached and fell off. If the rider gets lucky he will notice it and pick up the InfoKey from the ground; damaged or undamaged.

Although there is also a significant number of users who don't have any issues as described above, I just can't take any chances from my side. Therefore, I keep the InfoKey in my pocket and whenever I want to check the battery level or any other additional information, I just take a peek out of the pocket and put the InfoKey back in.

Another alternative is the aftermarket solution of a wristband. There are many options out there, firstly introduced during a Segway event from Segway itself, if I'm not mistaken and for free that time. However, the quality of that particular wristband was not the best to be used on a long term.

Since then, there are other wristbands available out there such us the US and HK (Hong Kong) versions and an ebay option. There was also a DIY wristband attempt by a user of this board, but the InfoKey had to be modified.

Another fine product, is the wristband made by Funky Move, which looks as if it is an official Segway accessory; but that is not the case.

I could not resist, so I placed an order last week and got that wristband delivered today. It looks great and feels also very comfortable on the wrist, but only time will tell if it will be comfortable when gliding. It may be a great solution to attach the InfoKey on the LeanSteer frame support, and use also the wristband as a secondary attachment to secure it, just in case the InfoKey accidentally detaches; as few fellow gliders do.

So, here are some photos of that particular wristband by Funky Move attached to my InfoKey. I hope they can help you out, if you ever decide to get your hands on a wristband for your InfoKey.
