Default Leadway just as good as Segway?

I live on a property in NSW and ive recently purchased a new Leadway RM09D unit from Leadway Australia and its on its way. Was wondering if anyone has tried this unit? The new unit retails
at $3995 and is supposed to be as good as the Segway X2. The stats are overall very simular to the X2 with more claimed range on the RM09D then the X2. Although they are still using 36V Lead acid batteries I have been told the
next model has lithium ion batteries.

The other impressive feature is the claimed 200kg max load limit. Not

LOL,you will be lucky to get 8km on your "Rm09D" but I personally don't think it will last 8km, beacuse during the 8km one of you could break
Looking forward to your in deepth review

I have sent you a private message.

My advice to you ( and to anybody else ) is try before you buy.

If you cannot try one, don't buy it.
Even if you have to make a trip to the big smoke to try one out it's a whole lot cheaper than making a nasty and costly error.

Good luck
Michael

He think he still in China where free advertising a fake product on the forum with a rip off price is a norm.

Steven, you can sell your product in Sydney China town, basement of darling harbor market city, next to the vegetable shop, there's a bank of toy shops selling imitation Mattel toys. Good luck.

I'm going to leave there here in case future potential owners of this company are interested in how Chinese makers like to scam their customers, by pretending to be someone else...

Not sure how anyone could justify paying these kinds of prices on a device they've never ridden or seen in-person.

And two questions -- who do you call in China when the thing brings down? Will they pay the shipping costs??

Those Chegway is everywhere now, and it is given Segway a real bad name, as in Asia, they advertise their unit as Segway.
As for the question of who do they call when the Chegway breakdown? here in Taiwan, they call us wanting to repair their lead acid battery and complain it breakdown after 500 meters of usage. We just laugh and hangup when we hear it's using lead acid battery.

One can buy a Rolex in night market for $25, and it keeps the time too, LOL

Interesting how he says he is getting a copy and asking if we know of anyone who has one, but his profile says he likes to ride his copy...

Which is it? getting one, or has one?

Thanks for exposing this liar.

What a moron.
Advertising a cheap copy on a forum about the real products is not something new, but I have never seen a spammer dumb enough to post 'I'm a liar' directly in their account profile.
