Segway's lightweight folding Ramps provide a convenient way to easily load your Segway Personal Transporter (PT) into the back of your vehicle. Whether it is into your car boot (or trunk if you're from America), the back of your SUV or onto the deck of your truck the Segway Ramps have been very carefully designed to make loading safe and quick. Manufactured from lightweight aluminium (or aluminum if you're from America), they weigh only a couple of kilograms each. The angled ends sit flat on the rear edge of your vehicle. Each ramp has a specially shaped channel in the shape of a low, splayed "V" with the correct dimensions to guide both the i2SE and x2SE tyres (or tyres if your from America). This shape encourages the tyres to remain in the channel even if the ramps are not perfectly parallel, or if the loader does not keep the ascent/descent of the PT perfectly aligned. This "forgiving" design makes loading safer compared with using traditionally designed wheelchair ramps, motorcycle ramps, or a especially a plank of 100xmm x 25mm (or good ol' 4" x 1") timber.* Segway Ramps come with a Zippered Carry Bag. This tough, hard wearing bag has a strong zipper with two zip tags, and a padded internal baffle that velcro's into place between the ramps to stop them rattling during travel. This baffle really works well to prevent noise, and to prevent metal-on-metal rubbing and wear.

The Zippered Carry Bag also features carry straps to make it easy to move about. After you've loaded your Segway PT and packed your Ramps into the Bag, the Bag offers another super-useful purpose: manoeuvre it into place in the rear of your vehicle to prevent your PT from rolling and moving inside your vehicle during travel. After many years of use the Zippered Carry Bag will begin to show its age. Segway New Zealand has brand new replacement Bags in stock.

The handy Segway Front Bag attaches to the PT's Handlebar/LeanSteer Frame. It is an essential accessory for carrying a water bottle, a raincoat, your lunch...even handy tools or a padlock. After years of use your Front Bag will age. Segway's Front Bag has always been a very well designed item, with a large opening "mouth" along with several special pockets, webbing, and a space for tools (3mm and 5mm Allen keys). Recently, Segway made their already-great Front Bag even better. It now features large, easy-to-grab and pull metal tags on the zippers (replacing the small plastic thumb tags). Some people claim the new bag is a worth upgrade for this feature alone! Segway New Zealand has the new Front Bags in stock now.

*****

* Actually, we really don't recommend using two planks of wood to load your PT into a vehicle. Not only do planks get dangerously slippery when wet, but the lack of an angled end means they tend to tip sideways at the point of transition with the vehicle deck when rolling the PT up or down the plank,. This causes the plank to tip sideways and risks the PT spilling to the ground.
