Segway launches two more electric bikes at CES

I’m no psychologist, but I feel like Segway showed up to CES 2026 with something to prove after last year. Certainly, it went out of its way to prove its micromobility bona fides to the press, who were perhaps a little too sniffy about scooters launching an electric bike. This year, Segway is launching not just two more consumer electric bikes, but an electric mountain bike, all packed with the kind of technology that just might make everyone stop sniffing.

First up, there’s the Myon, a big pass-through with a decent-sized rack for people who want to go far and carry a bit of luggage along the way. It’s not an eye-catching proposition given that so many e-bikes fit into the same model, but Segway hopes its technology will make a difference here. Myon is equipped with electronic shifting (linked to a Shimano CUES chain drive), electronic motor optimization and the company’s proprietary intelligent riding system.

The latter, as well as the Segway(TM) TurboTuned(TM) will automatically optimize the performance of the motor and battery during the journey. The company adds that gyroscopes, cadence and torque sensors built into the bike will measure performance based on road conditions. So if you’re going up a hill, the power will slowly increase before you have to think about it. Plus, if you stop at lights, the system won’t simply power up whatever you’ve set it for as soon as it senses even the slightest ounce of pedal pressure, removing the jerky start-up action you see in other bikes.

Segway’s broader argument is that its bikes will also come with a host of smart features, including integration with Apple’s Find My network, GPS tracking, remote locking, integration with your health and fitness app of choice, and smartphone pairing.

Muxi (pronounced moo-shee) is a more interesting piece of hardware, as it was built like a long tail cargo bike, but with the long tail cut off. Nonetheless, the focus is on loading, with the bike benefiting from an optional passenger seat with footrest and an optional center basket. Additionally, the bike comes with a cup holder (although, given that it has a direct-drive motor, I’m not sure I want to ride at low speeds while trying to sip my morning latte). To ensure you don’t struggle with your load, the bike is equipped with hill start assist, descent control, regenerative braking and traction control. Plus the aforementioned suite of value-added features, such as Find My integration, remote locking, GPS, and app integrations.

To complete the announcements, the Xaber (dis-br) 300, an electric off-road motorcycle oriented off-road. It has three power modes, allowing you to learn on the equivalent of a 150cc engine, then crank it up to 200cc, before topping out at 300cc. If you still want a greater sense of control, you can activate an electronic clutch, and if you want to give up more to the bike, you can set the maximum wheel angle. If you want to get all that action on a dirt bike, it’ll cost you $5,300 when it arrives.

As for Myon, it is available for purchase today on Segway’s official website and through its reseller network, priced at $2,000. Muxi will be available through these same channels in March, costing you $1,700.
