Lets Review the Segway Myon, Muxi, and Xaber 300 from CES

We’re talking the Segway Myon commuter, the Segway Muxi (pronounced “moo-shee,” even if your brain refuses at first), and the Xaber 300, which is basically Segway admitting, “Okay fine, this one’s not really an ebike.” This isn’t the usual “new frame, same motor” routine. The whole pitch is automotive-style tech showing up on two wheels: radar, electronic shifting, traction control, app-tuned ride behavior, and security that sounds like it got copied from an EV spec sheet.

Why Segway is bringing car-level tech to ebikes

A lot of ebikes still feel like bikes with a battery strapped on. Segway’s going the other direction. These rides are built around connected systems, sensors, and software that tries to make the bike feel smarter, smoother, and safer.

Quick hit list of what’s being pushed across these launches:

Electronic shifting with handlebar buttons (Myon)
Optional rear-view radar with alerts for vehicles behind you (Myon)
Traction control that reacts to wheel slip (Muxi, Xaber 300)
Hill-start assist to stop rollback on steep stops (Muxi)
Hill descent control to manage speed downhill (Muxi)
Regenerative braking that feeds energy back into the battery (Muxi)
Smart security with GPS tracking and Apple Find My support (Myon)
Ride modes, terrain modes, and parental controls (Xaber 300)

Pricing is part of why people are paying attention: Myon starts around $2,000, Muxi starts around $1,700 (both “around,” not locked-in final checkout totals).

If you want extra context on Segway’s “tech-first” vibe, the closest reference point is their Xyber. Two related videos mentioned alongside this drop are the Brie Segway review and the Jais Segway review.

The core idea is basically this quote, and it sticks: software-driven electric vehicles that just happen to have pedals.

At-a-glance: Myon vs Muxi vs Xaber 300

Here’s the cleanest way to compare what each one is trying to be, without pretending we have every spec nailed down yet.

Model	Starting price (claimed/estimated)	What it’s for	Biggest tech focus
Segway Myon	Around $2,000	Commuting and daily riding	Electronic shifting, optional rear radar, smart security
Segway Muxi	Around $1,700	Simple drivetrain, smooth city use	Direct drive, traction control, hill assist, regen braking
Segway Xaber 300	Not stated here	Dirt riding, “e-moto” territory	Power profiles, virtual clutch, terrain modes, parental controls

The Segway Myon: next-gen commuter platform (with a brain)

The Myon is Segway’s “commuter platform,” and the big theme is their “intelligent ride system,” meaning the bike isn’t just responding, it’s constantly reading sensors and trying to predict what you’re doing.

Think of it like the difference between an old-school light switch and a motion-sensing hallway light. One waits for you to do something. The other tries to meet you halfway.

Intelligent Ride System, what that really means

Segway’s framing is that the Myon turns into a connected electric vehicle, not a standalone ebike.

The practical upsides (based on what’s been stated) are pretty clear:

More natural power delivery, less “on/off” assist behavior
App control that doesn’t feel like a gimmick, because you’re actually tuning things
Car-like safety and security add-ons, which is where the Myon starts separating itself

Segway also has an official product page up for the Myon, if you want the manufacturer’s overview in one place: Segway Myon electric bike overview.

Electronic shifting that’s actually the headline

This is the feature that makes commuter riders pause mid-scroll.

The Myon uses servo-driven electronic shifting, controlled by plus and minus buttons on the handlebar. No mechanical cable. No crunchy shifts because your housing is dirty, stretched, or routed weird.

You get:

Smoother shifting feel
Button-based control (tap up, tap down)
The ability to fine-tune shifting in the app

If you’ve only ridden mechanical shifting, the appeal is simple: it can feel consistent every single time, even after months of weather and grime.

And yes, this is the kind of thing that can make a commuter ebike feel “premium” fast. It puts this bike ahead of almost every other commuter ebike on the market in terms of shifting interface alone (at least in this price neighborhood).

Optional rear-view radar (welcome to the future)

This is the part that feels the most “car tech got shrunk and bolted on.”

Segway is offering an optional rear-view radar system. It’s not standard, so expect added cost, but the claimed capability is what matters:

About 230 ft detection range
150-degree field of view
Alerts as vehicles approach from behind, including blind spot warnings

If you’ve ever used a rear radar while riding, you already know why people get addicted to it. It’s not that it replaces looking back, it’s that it gives you a constant “something’s coming” tap on the shoulder.

Turbo Tuned Algorithm 2.0 (power that doesn’t feel jerky)

Segway says the Myon uses Turbo Tuned Algorithm 2.0, which is basically their latest power delivery logic.

The key detail is the sensor mix:

Torque sensors
Cadence sensors
Motion sensors

That combo is supposed to adjust motor output in real time, so assist feels more predictive and less jerky. In plain terms, it should feel less like a speed switch and more like a supportive push.

Smart security: Segway is going hard here

Segway’s security stack is one of the biggest differentiators they keep repeating, and the Myon gets the full treatment:

AirLock proximity unlock
Remote lock
GPS tracking
Lost mode
Apple Find My integrations

That’s a lot. Most ebike brands are still stuck at “here’s a key” or “we added a basic alarm.” Segway’s acting like the bike is a parked vehicle that might get stolen, because… yeah. It might.

If you want a comparison point for how other powerful bikes approach security and real-world use (even without the same connected system), the Wired Freedom long-range ebike review is a good example of a different philosophy: massive performance and range, but not built around a smart security ecosystem.

The Segway Muxi: low-maintenance, direct-drive, and weirdly advanced

The Muxi is the sleeper in this lineup because at a glance, it looks like a simpler city bike. Then you read the feature list and go, “Wait, why does my bike have traction control now?”

Starting price is around $1,700, and the drivetrain choice is a big part of the pitch.

Direct drive motor with single-speed setup

The Muxi uses a direct drive motor with a single-speed transmission.

Translation:

No derailleur
No chain tuning (as stated)
Less maintenance
Smooth power delivery

It’s aiming at riders who don’t want to mess with adjustments and noise and shifting quirks. Just ride.

Traction control, hill start assist, hill descent control, and regen braking

This is where Segway starts sounding like they’re describing a crossover SUV.

The Muxi includes:

Traction control: Detects wheel slip and automatically adjusts motor power.
Hill start assist: Helps prevent rolling backward when you stop on a steep incline.
Hill descent control: Electronically manages downhill speed.
Regenerative braking: When you brake, it feeds power back into the battery.

That’s a lot of tech for the price point. And the big claim here isn’t “these features exist.” It’s that at around $1,700, other ebikes in the same range usually aren’t even trying to give you this kind of ride control.

If you’re used to more traditional setups, it’s a totally different vibe than something like a dual-motor moped-style bike where the focus is raw push.

Why the Muxi matters at $1,700

The Muxi’s whole identity is “simple to own, smart to ride.”

Single-speed and direct drive are about keeping maintenance low. The assist systems are about keeping the ride calm and controlled, even when the road isn’t. If Segway nails the feel, this is the kind of bike that turns casual riders into daily riders.

The Segway Xaber 300: this one stops pretending

Now we get to the Xaber 300 (also shown as “Saber 300” in some mentions). Either way, it’s the same idea: this is not your casual pedal-around-the-park bike.

This is Segway walking into e-moto territory and acting like they belong there.

Three power profiles (150cc, 200cc, 300cc equivalents)

Segway says the Xaber 300 has three power profiles:

150cc equivalent
200cc equivalent
300cc equivalent

That’s an interesting way to frame it, because it instantly tells gas riders what the “feel” is supposed to map to, without dumping motor numbers all over you.

Virtual electronic clutch (yes, really)

The Xaber 300 also gets a virtual electronic clutch, designed to simulate the feel of a real motorcycle clutch.

The practical goal is clear: let riders feather power the way they would on a gas bike, instead of only having “throttle on” and “throttle off” as the main experience.

Terrain modes and selectable traction control

The Xaber 300 includes:

Selectable traction control
Terrain modes: mud, dirt, trail

Each mode changes throttle response and power delivery. That’s the kind of thing that can make a bike feel either confident or chaotic, depending on how well it’s tuned.

Here’s how Segway frames those modes:

Mud mode: tuned for slippery conditions (different response and delivery)
Dirt mode: tuned for dirt riding behavior
Trail mode: tuned for trail riding behavior

For more CES launch context straight from the “official news voice,” PR Newswire’s Segway CES 2026 announcement covers the lineup as a broader mobility push.

Parental controls, speed limits, and geo-fencing

This is where things get kind of wild, especially for families.

Segway says the Xaber 300 has app-based controls including:

Maximum speed settings
Wheelie angle limits
Geo-fencing to set a riding area

So if you’re handing it to a younger rider, you can put guardrails on it without standing there yelling “SLOW DOWN” like a broken lawn sprinkler.

And yeah, the claim is fair: that level of app control is unheard of in a lot of the e-moto world.

The bigger point: Segway is building software-first rides

Zoom out and the pattern is obvious.

Segway isn’t just trying to make ebikes. They’re trying to make connected electric vehicles in different shapes:

Myon is the commuter with shifting, radar options, and a real security ecosystem.
Muxi is the simple drivetrain bike that still gets traction control and descent logic.
Xaber 300 is the “full send” dirt machine with modes, a virtual clutch, and parental control tools.

If you want more fast ebike content in general, the channel’s Really Fast Ebikes playlist is a solid rabbit hole.

Conclusion

Segway is pushing hard toward software-driven riding, and these three launches show it from three angles: commute, city simplicity, and dirt performance. The Myon’s electronic shifting and radar option scream “smart commuter,” the Muxi’s traction and hill controls are way more advanced than its price suggests, and the Xaber 300 feels like Segway straight-up entering a new category. The real question is whether riders want this much tech on two wheels, or if the best ebike is still the one that stays simple and just works.
