LAS VEGAS, Jan. 6, 2026 /PRNewswire/ -- CES 2026 -- Segway, a global leader in the micromobility and LEV space, today introduces its expanded electric bicycle (e-bike) lineup at CES (North Hall, booth 9615) along with an all-new electric dirt bike (e-dirt bike).

"We believe our new e-bikes represent a leap forward in terms of the rider experience."  - Nick Howe, head of e-bike.

The two new e-bikes, Myon and Muxi, are aimed at a broader market segment than Xyber and Xafari, the brand's debut e-bikes introduced at last year's CES. Both Myon and Muxi continue to integrate and improve upon Segway's already impressive suite of smart tech as well as add features and accessories designed to integrate seamlessly with its e-bikes and enhance the rider experience. The brand also promises a new level of customization and modularity.

Myon and Muxi each benefit from Segway's Intelligent Ride System, which features advanced security features like Apple Find My and AirLock proximity locking/unlocking, an all-new Lost Mode* that allows users to remotely disable the e-bike and/or battery if stolen, Over the Air (OTA) update support for six systems, a full-color, HD TFT display, an intelligent lighting system with auto headlights, and real-time health and fitness data app syncing. An upgraded Algorithm 2.0 uses advanced sensors and ultra-fast processing for more refined adaptive assist with gradual power application that closely matches inputs. The result is a more smooth, natural pedal feel and response without jerky starts or dead zones. 

"For people who aren't already cyclists, e-bikes can seem confusing or intimidating. The technologies we're integrating are designed to lower the barrier to entry and make cycling genuinely accessible for everyone. Technology should make things simpler, not the other way around," said Nick Howe, head of e-bike at Segway. "And with technology that combines Segway original innovations with safety and convenience features inspired by the automotive industry, we believe our new e-bikes represent a leap forward in terms of the rider experience."

Segway is also introducing a new line of accessories for both e-bikes (sold separately), including the Xiro Dropper Post (available March 2026 for $229.99) and Rearview Radar (on sale soon for $99.99). Xiro, an industry first, is a revolutionary dropper post that 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. Rearview Radar brings the enhanced safety of automotive blindspot detection to e-bikes. Mounting on the rear of the e-bike, it utilizes millimeter wave radar to detect the location, velocity and angle of objects with high accuracy to provide real-time audio and visual alerts that riders can customize in the app. Xiro and Rearview Radar integrate with the e-bike's electronics and don't require separate charging. Other accessories compatible with both e-bikes include an e-Bike Front Basket ($99.99 - Jan.), e-Bike Mirror ($29.99 - March)  and Easy Clamp Phone Mount ($59.99).

SEGWAY MYON
Myon, the first new e-bike in the lineup, goes on sale today at store.segway.com and Segway dealers nationwide. A commuter and leisure e-bike that blends classic style with the sleek, modern aesthetic that Segway is known for, Myon is a selectable Class 1, 2 or 3 e-bike that comes packed with features like Segway's new proprietary electronic shifting paired with a 9-speed Shimano CUES drivetrain, TurboTuned™ motor optimization and Segway's Intelligent Ride System suite of smart tech for security, safety and convenience. Myon is also compatible with an optional Removable Toptube accessory ($99.99 - Jan.) that changes it from a step-through to a traditional diamond frame, changing aesthetics, improving torsional rigidity and allowing riders to add additional accessories like frame bags (up to 11 pounds).

"We designed Myon to be an everyday bike for every type of rider," said Howe. "It's equally at home on a daily city commute as it is on a pleasure cruise along the coast or in the countryside."

Segway's innovative approach to electronic shifting (e-shifting) features intuitive and easy-to-press "+/-" buttons on the handlebar mounted control module which connect to a proprietary servo control unit mounted near the rear derailleur. A traditional shift cable connects the derailleur to that control unit which makes the system compatible with most standard rear derailleurs, while keeping the actual cable length minimal to reduce wear, stretch and maintenance. Shifting can be fine tuned in the app via a user-friendly interface that doesn't require mechanical skill or knowledge. And the system is powered by the e-bike's battery, so riders don't have to remember to charge additional components. It also has the ability to receive OTA updates that allow for future improvements, features and upgrades to e-shift performance.

TurboTuned™ is Segway's approach to optimizing motor and battery performance and efficiency. In conjunction with the brand's new Algorithm 2.0, it ensures every powertrain component works in sync for refined, effortless performance that delivers more than power. Ultra-precise sensors, physics-based algorithms, multi-sensor (torque, cadence, gyroscope) input and an Inertial Measurement Unit continuously adjust power for terrain and rider needs. The result is much stronger performance than Myon's 500-watt rating suggests when conditions demand it, delivered in a way that feels more natural than most e-bikes, while smartly conserving to increase range and efficiency when demands on the system are lower. With up to 80 miles of range and peak torque of 85 Nm, TurboTuned™ adds up to more than just the motor and battery size.

Myon retails for $1,999.99 and is available now at store.segway.com and through official Segway e-bike dealers in the US.

SEGWAY MUXI
Muxi (pronounced "moo-shee") is Segway's new short-tail e-bike aimed at blending utility and versatility with fun in a stylish, compact design where retro cool meets modern. Featuring a low stand-over height and upright, comfortable riding position, Muxi is designed for riders to make it their own with a suite of accessories available separately to increase capacity and functionality. A Passenger Kit ($199.99 - March) that includes a seat, foot pegs and wheel guards doubles the fun by allowing riders to carry a passenger (up to 120 pounds) with ease. A Middle Basket ($29.99 - March) adds additional cargo space and Fenders ($79.99 - March) help keep riders clean and dry even when the road isn't. A fold-down cupholder comes standard to ensure no beverage is left behind.

"I'm really excited about Muxi," said Howe. "It blends the laidback comfort of a beach cruiser with the stability of a Dutch cargo bike. If Myon is an everyday sedan, Muxi is the cool, fun, surf van you take to the beach with all your friends."

Muxi is a selectable Class 1 or 2 e-bike that features a single-speed drivetrain paired with a direct-drive motor for ease of use. To help improve safety and stability—especially with its ability to carry additional cargo—Muxi comes packed with features like Hill Start Assist to prevent rollback when starting on an incline, Hill Descent Control for confident descending and reduced brake wear, and Regenerative Braking for improved efficiency. It also features a Traction Control System (TCS) which detects wheelspin and modulates power to help keep riders in control. Paired with Segway's Intelligent Ride System suite of smart tech for security and convenience, these features combine to make Muxi as thoroughly modern as it is utilitarian.

Muxi will retail for $1,699.99 and be available March 2026 at store.segway.com and through official Segway e-bike dealers in the US.

SEGWAY XABER 300
Segway is also introducing the Xaber 300 (pronounced say-br), an all-new electric dirt bike on display at CES. Inspired by the X1000 prototype which competed in the Future Mission 1000 experimental low-emissions vehicle class of the 2025 Dakar Rally, the all-new Xaber 300 is built from the dirt up to offer high-performance, off-road, electric adrenaline.

"This marks another major step forward in Segway's strategy to broaden its electric mobility portfolio and make high-performance electric transportation and recreation accessible to riders of all lifestyles," said Howe.

Despite its performance oriented off-road nature, the Xaber 300 will feature the type of innovative technology Segway is known for in its other light electric vehicles.

Three power modes will allow users to choose between 150, 200 and 300cc equivalents, making it like three bikes in one and eliminating the need for riders to purchase bigger bikes as they progress. For experienced riders seeking to make the most of an all-electric platform, a virtual electronic clutch will simulate a mechanical clutch to provide familiar performance for motorcycle enthusiasts in dynamic off-road scenarios. A selectable Traction Control System (TCS) will have settings for different terrain. Riders will even be able to set the maximum wheelie angle in the app for skill progression—a novel application for the gyroscopic sensor technology Segway has honed through its experience in self-balancing vehicles. It will also include parental controls like the ability to set maximum speed limits and geo-fencing via the app. Xaber 300 will boast a best-in-class power-to-weight ratio of 24.7 percent and be backed by a 2-year warranty on key components (battery, motor, frame), 1-year on the complete bike.

"We've always been a technology forward company pushing the boundaries of light electric vehicles in efficiency, performance and smart features," said Howe. "We're excited to introduce an evolution of that innovation, extending beyond transportation solutions to offer a truly thrilling, electric, off-road experience for enthusiasts."

Full details and specs will be available closer to launch. Xaber 300 will retail for $5,299.99 and be available Spring/Summer 2026 at store.segway.com and through official Segway dealers in the US.

SEGWAY AS A GLOBAL LEADER
In addition to expanding its e-bike and off-road lineups, Segway remains a leader in micromobility technology as the "Global No. 1 Brand in Electric Kickscooter Sales" with more than 15-million sold worldwide to date. Last year, Segway introduced its third generation lineup of electric scooters, its most diverse and advanced yet—from compact, folding commuters like the E3 Series, to its flagship Max G3 and the high-performance GT3 series SuperScooters. The brand's third-generation lineup also introduced an all-new suite of integrated smart technologies, including SegRange range optimization, SegRide stability enhancement and SegSmart integrated smart cockpit and display interfaces.

Whether it's continued innovation in electric scooters and micromobility to remain the industry leader, or leveraging that experience to continue growing and disrupting the e-bike space, Segway's mission is to keep people "simply moving." Trusted by over 29 million riders worldwide, Segway transforms its self-developed technologies into seamless, intuitive experiences that elevate how people move.

Racing Discussion / American Flat Track and Cory T...
Last post by Biketographer - December 29, 2025, 11:36:22 AM
DAYTONA BEACH, Fla. (December 11, 2025) - AMA Pro Racing and Cory Texter Race Promotions are thrilled to detail an ambitious collaboration ahead of the 2026 Progressive American Flat Track season which will pave the road to the Grand National Championship for the future stars of the sport.



As part of this initiative, each of the first seven stops on the '26 Progressive AFT calendar will be preceded by an AMA-sanctioned Mission Foods CTR Showcase Event to be held at the same venue on the day before the subsequent American Flat Track National.

And it goes much deeper than merely introducing aspiring young amateur racers to the Progressive AFT paddock and providing them with an opportunity to showcase their skills in front of the key stakeholders of the sport.

Each Mission Foods CTR Showcase Event will feature the 450 Road to AFT class, which will utilize the same technical rules as the all-new AFT 450 ProSport class. The top 12 finishers in the Road to AFT Main Events will automatically qualify for an AFT 450 ProSport license and will be granted entry for the following day's National event. Additionally, points from the Road to AFT class can be applied toward earning an AMA Pro Expert license for the 2027 season.

This direct pipeline connects the amateur and pro ranks of motorcycle dirt track racing like never before, helping ensure that the most promising talents are identified and provided with the maximum opportunity to both build their individual careers and strengthen the sport as a whole.

By its very design, AFT 450 ProSport plays a critical role in that masterplan. This stepping-stone class is built around stock 450cc single-cylinder motorcycles featuring minimal modifications. As such, AFT 450 ProSport reduces financial barriers while creating a level playing field that showcases rider talent more so than equipment to encourage broad participation from grassroots racers. 

With lowered operating and bike preparation costs, amateurs, privateers, small teams, and regional aces alike will be provided a shared arena in which they can demonstrate their ability before a national audience.

Cory Texter, two-time AFT Production Twins Champion and founder of Cory Texter Race Promotions, said, "I'm extremely excited about our plans for next year. It's been a long time coming, and we've been working tirelessly to make this happen. It's a great opportunity for amateur riders to compete at the same venues as the professional series, racing in front of professional teams and partners. We will be at different venues all around the country, which was important so that we could provide this opportunity to riders from as wide a geographic area as possible. For as long as I can remember, my passion has been growing the sport, and I am excited to take this important step toward that goal."

In addition to the 450 Road to AFT class, the AMA-sanctioned Mission Foods CTR Showcase events will feature amateur classes for all ages and motorcycle sizes, providing riders the opportunity to compete at professional-level facilities in front of the Progressive American Flat Track fans attending the weekend's races.

Mission Foods CTR Showcase Event Schedule

March 4, 2026 - Royal Enfield Short Track at DAYTONA I, Daytona International Speedway, Daytona Beach, FL (Progressive AFT Nationals on March 5-6)

March 20, 2026 - Atlanta Short Track, Senoia Raceway, Senoia, GA (Progressive AFT National on March 21)

April 24, 2026 - Ventura Short Track, Ventura Raceway, Ventura, CA (Progressive AFT National on April 25)

May 1, 2026 - Silver Dollar Short Track, Silver Dollar Speedway, Chico, CA (Progressive AFT National on May 2)

May 15, 2026 - ThrottleFest, Budds Creek Motocross Park, Mechanicsville, MD (Progressive AFT National on May 16)
