@@AlienRides it seems like most creators i watch nowadays are plagued with spam bots, like you've won ... with a bogus telegram or instagram account sad really
got to test ride one this afternoon at AlienRides with their demo... and while I don't usually care much for scooters.. this thing was just impressive as hell. its tank-like build quality and size makes this such a comfortable ride. it doesn't have quite the top speed as some other major high performance scooters, but the various features and build quality are way up there.. it's big, bulky, and heavy... but it's loaded with fun.. there's plenty of torque and power.
@@AlienRides i’m thinking about getting either segway gt1 or vsette 10+ from you guys, i have a question for the gt1, can you still possibly fit the gt1 in a trunk of sedan? Specifically honda accord, or even in the backseat?
@@Fawke85 So I have not tried it myself, but I could see it fitting in the car, but maybe you'd have to fold a back seat down, does it do that? It would certainly be a tight fit.
I have the GT2 transformers limited edition and a recent firmware update now gives both Gt1 and Gt2 electronic braking and regen braking. It works well. If you purchase the transformer edition, you get a Bluetooth speaker that will allow you to change the horn sounds. You also have gasoline engine sounds that match to LLP the throttle and it is really convincing. I love this machine and I love your video.
Rewatching this after 6 months….I’m so impressed by the hill climbing, especially on “Ripley Street!” That’s like the steepest hill ever, & the GT2 climbed like a champ! 🏆 The Segway Innovation Group deserves multiple awards 🥇🥇🥇🥇for this beauty 🛴 😍right here!
Thank you, I do agree that this is a premium offering that most will not be able to try, but I am excited to share the news and features, and hope that it does good things for the industry. More on the way soon. 👽🖖
Great review Kevin your videos are top notch I always enjoy your content and amazing review man I love the GT2 I wish it was on sale for 3k I would buy it for sure.
This great news. I've been wondering when are we going to get features you would get in a car but on a scooter. I really like the futuristic look and even the handlebar setup. It's a really cool design. Hopefully this forces companies to give us better scooters moving forward. Thanks for another great video @Alien Rides :)
The design of the handlebars is crap! Try mounting anything there. Try replacing them with another set more suited for your size. Compared to the Kaabo Wolf King GT Pro, this is a scooter for old men who know nothing.
In terms of engineering Segway GT2 and GT1 has nailed it. I believe they are the Apple Iphone of scooters . In 2006 when blackberry Verizon and everybody else came close to making the phone that we know today Apple did just that in 2007. It was a moment in memory when I said "They did it". Well I don't own an Apple iPhone I can appreciate the engineering that went behind it. The same with the Segway GT series. Congrats to Ninebot. Bravo.
Indeed, I’m very excited to see the r next generation of scooters now that these are our. No doubt other manufacturers are scrambling to catch up to it. 👽🙏
@@AlienRides well honestly the TC in VESC mainly makes sure that if one wheel loses traction it doesn't spin up much faster than the other one, like when you wheelie on a cheap Chinese escoot the front wheel will spin up to ridiculous speeds and get worn out much faster when it hits the ground again, with VESC's traction control that doesn't happen and front wheel tires last much longer that wouldn't work while Both wheels are slipping at the same rpm though, as it's not that dynamic, it just sees one spins up ... faster and limits the power of it basically to not do that, i'm sure it was mainly made for multi wheeled electric skateboards so you don't get pulled sideways cause one wheel slips, but it works for the reason i mentioned above aswell
You Sir and your videos have made a huge jump in value and quality. Your speaking voice and pace are well developed and the presentation is great! Adding a beautiful woman doesn't hurt either. The Segway looks like they upped the scoter market for sure! Cheers

Hello first great video, I don’t know how the heck I didn’t run into it when I was researching the GT series before buying it from you. I think I talked to you and your wife on the phone yesterday after I bought the GT-1 Sunday from you. Y’all had nothing but good things to say about the GT series and your wife told me to check out your video on them. Also anyone reading these comments that are looking to buy one of these Scooterss I’d encourage you to buy it from Alien Rides and not from Segway directly. First of all I paid less then MSRP 2999 for my GT1 $2750 , and not only that they We’re very nice to me matter fact, I actually called them twice Asking questions about the scooter. Coming up from a kick scooter like My Segway max G 30 in LP 30 it’s a big leap in performance and in price so I had a few questions needless to say. Second phone call I talk to the person with the most experience on the GT one which was the woman you see in the video riding it. She’s spent about 10 or 15 minutes just explaining every cool thing she experienced while she was making the video and riding the scooter. Extremely nice to me. The sale had already been done. Never Rushed me off the phone because I’m sure she had more important things to do than convince me that I made the right decision buying a GT one instead of the GT two. all in all very nice people. Her husband was very nice to me the first Phone call I made about shipping practices just good people. And I’m happy that I actually bought it from an American owned Business rather than buying directly from A Chinese manufacturer. I’m talking to you guys on Tuesday so I don’t have my scooter yet I live in Tampa Florida and not anywhere near California where it’s being shipped from so I can’t tell you how I like the scooter but I can tell you how I like the people that actually sold it to me. Anyway that’s all I got thank you.
Hey Alien Rides. I would be very interested in learning more about the behind the scenes information about the segway GT series scooters.. I work for a repair center for electric scooters/hoverboards/skateboards that "a large extended warranty company who shall not be named publicly" sends these products in to for repair under extended warranty.. In preparation for working on these im curious what kinds of weak points you may have noticed with this scooter.. Likely failures (if any), and if there will be parts support from segway for these GTs given the questionable Segway track record for service in the past.. Also perhaps an off the record chat about expanding service for scooters like these.. Great Video! Keep up the amazing work!
We're still trying to figure that out ourselves! So far there have been relatively few problems with the GT scooters, and most manifest in physical damage from shipping. I would also be keen in knowing which company you work for, since we are debating partnering with companies for warranty work. Anyway, happy to chat more over IG (@alienrides), or email (support@alienrides.com).
Yeah, we should've done a headlight test for sure. Most scooters, this one included, do not have super easy to fix flat tires, but it is totally doable. 👽🖖
According to electric scooter guide the range in Race mode + boost mode is somewhere between 50-60km and Sports mode is above 50+km range but this factors in the user's payload, hill inclines, terrain and weather
Yup, that's correct, there are so many variables when it comes to range it's hard to state an accurate number. Should be able to do 50km at high speeds no problem though. 👽🖖
OMG the cinematography is epic...can I ask..how do you shoot the rides? Is it a Full Frame Camera on a gimbal? How is it mounted...would love to see a BTS on your setup as a fellow reviewer (although tiny channel in comparison)....just amazing footage...awesome editing :) :) Cheers from Victoria BC :)
Thanks and nice to meet you! We do use a bigger camera (Sony FX3) on a gimbal, held by a dedicated cameraman. It’s not an easy setup to replicate but we are quite fond of it! 👽🖖
I haven't seen one in person (not available in Europe yet I think), but it looks like the first super scooter that has premium ebike level quality and R&D. I've been waiting for that ever since I got my Boosted Rev and wanted more power.
@@AlienRides Love the Rev. It got a lot of flak because it was expensive (I don't care) and had short range (I do care), but man is it better built than any other scooter in existence. Thanks, need to buy this!
Besides the tires which I know you guys will have do you guys plan on offering other parts for the scooter in case something breaks? What I’ve heard is that Segway is going to sell parts to allow self repair but I rather buy them from you guys regardless.
Yes, we plan on stocking everything essential, and our parts order is being processed now. We will also provide for our industry leading two year warranty. 👽🖖
I gotta make that video. We usually try to cover rain riding for PEVs which claim to be waterproof, but unfortunately it doesn't rain often in California. Maybe we need an indoor rain area 😅👽🖖
Im from California too, San Diego, we have 1-2 months of rain and in NorCal its like 2-3 months of rain. Though its not alot, my last PEV broke due to the rain.
Hey Alien Rides, do you know the IP of the Rion Apex? I want to know how resistant it is to water before buying it because if its not I dont want to destroy it from rain by accident, like I did my previous PEV.
What are all the differences between gt1 and gt2? I'm okay with paying 1000 extra if there were much better features or safety in gt2. If it's only speed difference, I'd rather buy the gt1. Is there dynamic traction control only in gt2?
I own the gt2 and it's 2 motors compared to 1 on the gt1. It's got a bigger battery and the Traction control works good on the gt2 cuz it has a front motor.. Wait till it's around 2k on Amazon then get the gt2 cuz your gonna Eventually want to upgrade anyways to something faster the gt2 goes 43.. while the gt1 goes 37 Also there's returns on Amazon for 30 days if you don't like it... Best of luck I love mine and it's my go to Vehicle.
Great designs and they look well built. They look super comfortable as well. The only downside is that hefty price. $4,000 for the GT2? Is Segway out of their minds? Only a small niche of people will even spend more than $1,000 on an e scooter.
Yup, they aren't cheap, but they are high quality, and not cheap to produce. We're starting to see these compete and be more useful than cars and motorcycles in the city. 👽🖖
@@AlienRides Shout out to Alien Rides by the way. I have a PEV through you guys and I had an issue that was covered under warranty. Everything was quick and smooth. I recommend Alien Rides to people looking to purchase a higher end one. The only gripe I have is that I wish you had more parts and more availability for the specific PEVs that you sell but good service!
They have an $800 scooter and a $1500 model too. As niche as it might be there’s still a good sized market for super scooters. Last month I dropped $3500 on a Wolf King GT Pro. Segway just lowered the price on these to $3500 a few weeks ago, still a lot of money but for the quality it’s worth it IMHO. But if you want to spend less you can get a G2 or P100S.
there are 4 thinges thet i used my scewter for that is to cary and transport my lugage the nightlamp to read with and the charger for warming my handes
Can we change the kmh to MPH? Are they coming out w/a Seat like w/the MAX & ES series? 🤔 You went from an ESK8’r to a dealer….nice! 🙂 Nice hill climb, especially in SF! 😜
Thanks for stopping by. We've managed to become one of the larger dealers already somehow, but will definitely keep reviewing everything we can get our hands on. Ride safe! 👽🖖
IMO 45 mph is a good speed for most scooters since it will not tempt riders to jump on the highways, but the price and heavy weight are too close to an actual motorcycle like a GROM that does 58mph and the GROM is road legal, has bigger tires and a seat for long rides. Also, not many people can safely climb stairs with 120Lbs and the *GT2 is HUGE* - just look at the size compared to the young lady in the intro. Personally I would get the cheapest Vsett 10+ or Wolf Warrior X that are both under $2k, can do the same top speed and weigh less than 85Lbs vs 120Lbs for the Segway.
Man, I might have to seriously look at the GT2! Questions: 1) how do y'all handle potholes? Any concerns, since so many in SF seem huge and dangerous? 2) Does AR carry the tires for these scooters and what's it like to replace them? 3) How fast do the scooters charge?
I think it's a great scooter and you'd love it. It probably handles pot holes the best out of all of the scooters, just given how big and beefy the suspension is. We are going to be getting the original Segway tires for these, which we don't have yet, but we do have the same size tires that are used for other 11" scooters. It can take a while to charge them but we are also looking at getting fast chargers. 👽🖖

i like the refined look of these i think all evehicles are cool in their own way but the refined looks are a nice touch
Hey man you're going to be in the Bronx?
I liked the Music! 😊 Back to the '80s!
It was a good era 👽🖖
Hey Alien Rides. I would be very interested in learning more about the behind the scenes information about the segway GT series scooters.. I work for a repair center for electric scooters/hoverboards/skateboards that "a large extended warranty company who shall not be named publicly" sends these products in to for repair under extended warranty.. In preparation for working on these im curious what kinds of weak points you may have noticed with this scooter.. Likely failures (if any), and if there will be parts support from segway for these GTs given the questionable Segway track record for service in the past.. Also perhaps an off the record chat about expanding service for scooters like these.. Great Video! Keep up the amazing work!
We're still trying to figure that out ourselves! So far there have been relatively few problems with the GT scooters, and most manifest in physical damage from shipping. I would also be keen in knowing which company you work for, since we are debating partnering with companies for warranty work. Anyway, happy to chat more over IG (@alienrides), or email (support@alienrides.com).
Question? What are the distances in both scooters? And do they come with optional seats?
Range is anywhere from 30-60 miles depending on riding speed and conditions. They don't have seats yet. 👽🖖
GT2 range:
- Eco mode 90km either 1WD or 2WD
- Sports mode = 50-60 km range
- Race mode = 50-60km range
- Race + boost mode = 50km+ range
What camera do you use to film videos?
How tall were the two riders in the vid?
Do you have discount for vsett 9
Not usually, but you can always email support@alienrides to see if we can do anything
Was that the gta v road for the hill test
My question is, are the tires easy to swap in case you need to replace from flats? Also would have liked to see The headlight at night.
Yeah, we should've done a headlight test for sure. Most scooters, this one included, do not have super easy to fix flat tires, but it is totally doable. 👽🖖
GT2 has 900 Lumens = 9W headlights
How does it compared to the Kaabo Wolf GT?
Great review, however I would love to see a dedicated portion on the range. With that said do you guys have any data on the GT2’s range?
I would love to do a range test soon. You’re probably looking at about 30 miles of fast and hard riding on it. More if you’re riding slower. 👽🖖
@@AlienRides the range test video is what I’ve been waiting for! Will keep a lookout
Loving this video! Snagged the GT1 for $1500 on Amazon! Waiting for delivery instructions phone call
How u like it?
@@igot5onit423I stole it off his porch when it arrived, he didn’t have a chance.
What is the range? It's also not indicated in your website. If it covers 50km true range (in it's race, boost mode) it would be awesome.
According to electric scooter guide the range in Race mode + boost mode is somewhere between 50-60km and Sports mode is above 50+km range but this factors in the user's payload, hill inclines, terrain and weather
Yup, that's correct, there are so many variables when it comes to range it's hard to state an accurate number. Should be able to do 50km at high speeds no problem though. 👽🖖
KINDLY IF INMAY ASK Alien, WHATS YOUR HEIGHT of the riders in feets
OMG the cinematography is epic...can I ask..how do you shoot the rides? Is it a Full Frame Camera on a gimbal? How is it mounted...would love to see a BTS on your setup as a fellow reviewer (although tiny channel in comparison)....just amazing footage...awesome editing :) :) Cheers from Victoria BC :)
oh and the camera work on the hill climb...with the GT1 was phenomenal...you could really see the hill was steep :) :) awesome camera work :)
Thanks and nice to meet you! We do use a bigger camera (Sony FX3) on a gimbal, held by a dedicated cameraman. It’s not an easy setup to replicate but we are quite fond of it! 👽🖖
@@AlienRides it looks fabulous...but he must be a brave dude...I'm guessing he's on a EUC...wow..talent :) Cheers
@P. B. Foote oh wow...thank you for the sub :) :) :) Cheers :)
@P. B. Foote much appreciated :) :) sitting here editing another range test with the Wolf :)
Gt2 for me. Like that transparent display.
Thanks for this video, I’m watching from Paris France 🇫🇷 that’s the one I need ! Regards
What helmet are you both using? Thanks
Great video! Will you guys ever do a review on the new Apollo City Pro?
Thanks for the request. I would love to review every scooter, but no plans to review that one yet, maybe some day. 👽🖖
I haven't seen one in person (not available in Europe yet I think), but it looks like the first super scooter that has premium ebike level quality and R&D. I've been waiting for that ever since I got my Boosted Rev and wanted more power.
Yeah, this definitely has that premium feel to it, and if you enjoyed the rev, I think you would love this one. 👽🖖
@@AlienRides Love the Rev. It got a lot of flak because it was expensive (I don't care) and had short range (I do care), but man is it better built than any other scooter in existence. Thanks, need to buy this!
its available in europe and much cheaper than 4k! about 3k here.
almost 5k for the GT1 here in Sweden. premium feel premium prices@@billgangsta539
When is @AlienRides going to create a go-kart style vehicle?
Besides the tires which I know you guys will have do you guys plan on offering other parts for the scooter in case something breaks? What I’ve heard is that Segway is going to sell parts to allow self repair but I rather buy them from you guys regardless.
Yes, we plan on stocking everything essential, and our parts order is being processed now. We will also provide for our industry leading two year warranty. 👽🖖
That retro intro alone is driving me to make the purchase 😂
2:40 I sound like that when i feel a burp coming while I talk lol
That's all I do here. 👽🖖
I'm pretty sure the Gotway Dten could've made it up that hill a long time ago (84 volt single motor).
Ok this one is good segway gt2 2500€ but only 70kmh rion re90 8k €,slack 920r ,7k €, how to increase the speed on segway changing only the battery ?
I love your rides and cinematics in San Francisco! PS: We live in the same city.
Can you do a PEV review on rainproof or rain resistant PEVs ??
I gotta make that video. We usually try to cover rain riding for PEVs which claim to be waterproof, but unfortunately it doesn't rain often in California. Maybe we need an indoor rain area 😅👽🖖
Im from California too, San Diego, we have 1-2 months of rain and in NorCal its like 2-3 months of rain. Though its not alot, my last PEV broke due to the rain.
Hey Alien Rides, do you know the IP of the Rion Apex? I want to know how resistant it is to water before buying it because if its not I dont want to destroy it from rain by accident, like I did my previous PEV.
@@benjaminwashington2087 the Rion has zero waterproofing. If it so much as looks at a drop of water it explodes.
@@AlienRides haha 😅🤣😂😱🌧💧🛴💣💥🌋
Hey Alien, can you please do a review of the Slack Core 920R scooter? They claim it go faster than 140km/t.
What are all the differences between gt1 and gt2? I'm okay with paying 1000 extra if there were much better features or safety in gt2. If it's only speed difference, I'd rather buy the gt1. Is there dynamic traction control only in gt2?
I own the gt2 and it's 2 motors compared to 1 on the gt1. It's got a bigger battery and the Traction control works good on the gt2 cuz it has a front motor..
Wait till it's around 2k on Amazon then get the gt2 cuz your gonna Eventually want to upgrade anyways to something faster the gt2 goes 43.. while the gt1 goes 37
Also there's returns on Amazon for 30 days if you don't like it...
Best of luck I love mine and it's my go to Vehicle.
What does this mean for RION? Are they able to create a scooter even more powerful or compete with Segway?
Big Fan Brother.
I'm from Bangladesh 🇧🇩.
Always watch your video❤️
Take love❤️😃😄
Thank you for the support! 👽🖖
amazing review!!! please do the Segway P100 & P65!!
Great review guys!!!.. OMG!.. I'm 70yo and I want to jump and buy one GT2. Looks so fun to drive and it looks so cool too. 👍🤪
Do it its a blast. But full face Helmet🫡
Great designs and they look well built. They look super comfortable as well. The only downside is that hefty price. $4,000 for the GT2? Is Segway out of their minds? Only a small niche of people will even spend more than $1,000 on an e scooter.
Yup, they aren't cheap, but they are high quality, and not cheap to produce. We're starting to see these compete and be more useful than cars and motorcycles in the city. 👽🖖
@@AlienRides Shout out to Alien Rides by the way. I have a PEV through you guys and I had an issue that was covered under warranty. Everything was quick and smooth. I recommend Alien Rides to people looking to purchase a higher end one. The only gripe I have is that I wish you had more parts and more availability for the specific PEVs that you sell but good service!
@@wombat5252 Im glad your experience went well. We are definitely suffering from growing pains, but we are trying our best to resolve that.
Why is it called a Super Scooter in the first place? A lot of R&D has been put into the GT1 and the GT2 hence the price tag. 😉🛴
They have an $800 scooter and a $1500 model too.
As niche as it might be there’s still a good sized market for super scooters. Last month I dropped $3500 on a Wolf King GT Pro.
Segway just lowered the price on these to $3500 a few weeks ago, still a lot of money but for the quality it’s worth it IMHO. But if you want to spend less you can get a G2 or P100S.
Superscooters? What about Nami MAX, Daultron Thunder 2, vsett11, Fobos X, and Rion Thrust?
Ultimately those will have a higher top speed, but won't feel as polished or refined as the Segway GT scooters. 👽🖖
Hope your excited alien rides because I am releasing the piscooter 4.5 2nd gen on September 3rd
Nice, would love to check that out! 👽🖖
Your video quality is excellent.
there are 4 thinges thet i used my scewter for that is to cary and transport my lugage the nightlamp to read with and the charger for warming my handes
Can we change the kmh to MPH? Are they coming out w/a Seat like w/the MAX & ES series? 🤔 You went from an ESK8’r to a dealer….nice! 🙂 Nice hill climb, especially in SF! 😜
Yes from the Segway app
Thanks for stopping by. We've managed to become one of the larger dealers already somehow, but will definitely keep reviewing everything we can get our hands on. Ride safe! 👽🖖
@@AlienRides 👍🏾
For me this is the best scooter ever, I love the design
I just witnessed history in the making 😳
Please do a review on the Nova Mini!!!!
We are trying to, right now the bottleneck is just production.
@@AlienRides please please please cause I know people besides me who actually been speaking about the Roadrunner Tronic vs the Nova mini
The inovation on this scooter is amazing
43mph is kinda slow for that scooter
What helmet does the lady have on?
Great video man, those two look slick 💯
Glad to see some brand fresh contents 🙌🏾
Any new stuff for the Rion APEX? asking for a friend 👀
I agree they did a great job on these. We'll have some APEX content soon, as soon as production gets underway. 👽🖖
@@AlienRides Yesss! i'm super excited, can't wait
How much?
Not cheap as the GT1 starts at around $2,800 currently, but they are very solid scooters. 👽🖖
Id love to seea race with the new Segway scooters👊 just to see how it really holds up ✌👊👍
That would be awesome! 👽🖖
The weight will make it stable more safer futuristic design just beautiful 😍
You rule Alien Rides.You rule dogg.
this is the best escooter ever !
IMO 45 mph is a good speed for most scooters since it will not tempt riders to jump on the highways, but the price and heavy weight are too close to an actual motorcycle like a GROM that does 58mph and the GROM is road legal, has bigger tires and a seat for long rides. Also, not many people can safely climb stairs with 120Lbs and the *GT2 is HUGE* - just look at the size compared to the young lady in the intro. Personally I would get the cheapest Vsett 10+ or Wolf Warrior X that are both under $2k, can do the same top speed and weigh less than 85Lbs vs 120Lbs for the Segway.
Yup, all accurate and good points. The Segway is like a Cadillac though, and though it's much bigger, dang is it smooth compared to other scooters. 👽🖖
Anyone have both the Segway GT2 and the Segway p100s? I need the most range possible, looking to purchase soon
Get the GT2 for the thrills dude
If Segway drops the prices to about 2600 and 3000, then they'll take off like Hot Cakes
Yes, that would be an incredible price for these scooters, though I'm not sure they can drop them that low. 👽🖖
Perhaps next year
Man, I might have to seriously look at the GT2!
Questions:
1) how do y'all handle potholes? Any concerns, since so many in SF seem huge and dangerous?
2) Does AR carry the tires for these scooters and what's it like to replace them?
3) How fast do the scooters charge?
I think it's a great scooter and you'd love it. It probably handles pot holes the best out of all of the scooters, just given how big and beefy the suspension is.
We are going to be getting the original Segway tires for these, which we don't have yet, but we do have the same size tires that are used for other 11" scooters.
It can take a while to charge them but we are also looking at getting fast chargers. 👽🖖
3) Answer: GT1 = 7 hr dual-charge, GT2 = 8 hr dual-charge
