Segway’s new e-bikes are impressively high-tech and delightfully low-cost

After causing a splash at last year’s CES with a pair of high-tech, high-powered e-bikes, Segway returned to the show with a little something more for everyone. The Ninebot-owned brand announced two new e-bikes — the seemingly conventional-looking Myon, and the low-step, short-tail Muxi — as well as a sharp-looking electric dirt bike called the Xaber 300.

In previous years, Segway veered toward gimmicky reveals, like goofy self-balancing pods and paintball-shooting go-karts. Last year, the company straightened up with the release of the moto-styled Xyber and the low-step Xafari. This year, the company continued to build out its lineup with three new models, aiming for a broader market and a level of customization that will allow its customers to tailor vehicles to their lifestyle.

The Myon and Muxi will both be equipped with anti-theft systems, including an all-new Lost Mode that allows owners to remotely disable the e-bike and battery if it’s stolen — an increasingly popular feature among feature-rich e-bikes. There’s also a plethora of real-time health and fitness data, full-color screens, and updated software for “more refined” power assistance.

And as we’ve previously reported, Segway will also offer an optional rear-facing radar for $99.99. The RearView Radar system will have a 150-degree field of view, with a range of up to 230 feet in the rear, extending 20 feet wide. The millimeter-wave radar can help alert cyclists to approaching cars, including the direction from which they’re coming and their proximity to the bike.

A new Xiro Dropper seat post senses when riders are slowing to a stop and lowers automatically, allowing them to put both feet down for stability and mount or dismount with ease. The Dropper Post will be available as an add-on for $299.99 soon.

The Myon e-bike is designed for commuter or leisure riders. Available in Class 1 (pedal-assist, no throttle, max speed 20mph), 2 (throttle, max speed 20mph), or 3 (no throttle, max speed 28mph) configurations, the Myon aims to be Segway’s mass-market model with a little something for everyone.

Myon’s motor offers a nominal power of 500W and 85Nm of peak torque. Its 48V / 722Wh battery offers a range of up to 80 miles. With 80mm of front suspension travel, hydraulic disc brakes, and a new proprietary electronic shifting module, the Myon aims for a ride that’s equal parts comfortable and easy to use.

Segway says its take on electronic shifting is designed to feel simple and intuitive. You can shift using easy-to-press “+” and “–” buttons mounted on the handlebars, which control a small servo unit near the rear derailleur. A short, traditional shift cable connects to the derailleur itself. This setup works with most standard rear derailleurs, while keeping the cable run short to reduce wear, stretching, and other maintenance issues. Fine-tuning your shifts is also easy — you can make precise adjustments right in the app, no mechanical experience required.

Segway’s new TurboTuned, meanwhile, makes sure the Myon’s motor and battery are always working at their best. With the new Algorithm 2.0, everything stays in sync so power delivery feels smooth and effortless. A network of precise sensors detects how hard you’re pedaling, your cadence, and the terrain, then adjusts power in real time to match your ride.

The bike comes with a low-step frame, though an optional removable top tube is available for $99.99. But if you want to take the bike as is, without any bells or whistles, it will only cost you $1,999 — which is refreshingly affordable. It’s available for preorder as of January 6th.

Segway’s next bike is the laid-back beach cruiser Muxi (pronounced “moo-shee”). With its retro styling, curved downtube, and upright riding style, Muxi is designed to be more approachable than Segway’s other e-bikes. And with a bevy of accessories available, such as cargo and passenger-carrying capabilities, the Muxi can be fully kitted out for a variety of use cases.

Muxi is available in Class 1 or Class 2 configurations. It uses a single-speed drivetrain and a direct-drive motor with 750W of nominal power and 80Nm of torque. Segway says that Muxi is built with safety and stability in mind, including smart features such as Hill Start Assist to prevent rolling back on inclines, Hill Descent Control for smoother, more confident downhill riding, and regenerative braking to help boost efficiency and reduce brake wear. It also has a Traction Control System that senses wheel spin and adjusts power to keep you balanced. And like Myon, Segway’s Intelligent Ride System provides extra security and anti-theft capabilities.

Muxi will start at $1,699 when it goes on sale in March 2026.

And now for something a bit pricier — and a lot faster.

The Xaber 300 (pronounced “say-ber”) is Segway’s new electric dirt bike, built for extreme off-roading. The company isn’t ready to reveal most of the relevant specs, like power, battery, and range, but we should expect more details later this year when the Xaber 300 goes on sale. (At what price? We’ll have to wait for that too.)

We do know that it comes with three power modes that match 150, 200, and 300cc bikes. Segway says that means you won’t have to upgrade to a bigger bike as you improve your riding skills. For more experienced riders, a virtual electronic clutch mimics a traditional mechanical clutch, delivering responsive control in off-road conditions.

Riders can fine-tune their grip for different terrain with a selectable Traction Control System, and the companion app lets them set a maximum wheelie angle to help build skills safely. And perhaps most importantly, given the current moral panic around teens on e-bikes, built-in parental controls enable you to set top speed limits and create geofenced riding areas through the app. Whether teens abide by those controls is another matter entirely.
