Segway Myon

What the Segway Myon is built for

The Segway Myon is a commuter e-bike, built for daily rides to work, errands and city streets.

It has a 500 W motor, 85 Nm of torque and a top speed of 28 mph (45 km/h).

It carries a 722 Wh battery and a stated range of up to 80 miles (129 km) on a charge. Real-world range is usually lower than the rated figure: it falls with throttle use, hills, cold weather, rider weight and higher assist levels.

In the United States the Segway Myon sells for $1,800, close to the median of $1,700 across 311 commuter e-bikes with a US price. That is $2 per watt-hour of battery.

Where the Segway Myon may be ridden

Segway Myon is sold as Class 2 (throttle, up to 20 mph) and Class 3 (pedal assist up to 28 mph) under the three-class system most US states use. Class 3 e-bikes are kept off some bike paths and trails, and several states set a minimum age and require a helmet for them. Riders can switch between classes in the settings, and the class it is ridden in decides where it may go.

In the European Union and the United Kingdom an e-bike counts as a bicycle only within the pedelec limits; as specified, its 500 W motor is above the 250 W limit, its 28 mph (45 km/h) top speed is above the 25 km/h at which assistance must stop and its throttle moves it without pedalling, which the pedelec rules allow only as start-up help at walking pace. A model above those limits is treated as a moped there, with type approval, registration and insurance, unless the brand sells a version set to the European limits.

Segway Myon safety certification

The brand's listing for the Segway Myon does not state a UL 2849 or EN 15194 certification. New York City allows only e-bikes certified to UL 2849 to be sold or rented there, and California requires certified batteries from 2026; ask the seller for the certificate before buying.
