In an unconventional move, Segway is inviting enthusiasts to help shape its upcoming Xaber 300 electric dirt bike. The company is seeking 100 experienced riders to test the bike in real-world conditions and provide feedback ahead of the commercial launch, according to a report by RideApart.
What is the Xaber 300 Early Access Program?
The program grants participants the chance to own the bike at a discounted price — up to 50% off the estimated retail price — in exchange for regular performance reports. Segway aims to refine the final product based on actual riding experiences from a diverse group of riders.
How can you join the program?
Interested riders must fill out an application form on Segway’s official website, detailing their experience with electric bikes and preferred terrain types. Participants will be selected based on a mix of expertise and geographic locations to ensure comprehensive testing under various conditions.
When will the Xaber 300 be officially available?
Segway has not announced a precise launch date, but the early access program suggests the bike is in its final development stage. It is expected to reach markets in 2026, with program participants receiving priority delivery.
What are the known specs of the Xaber 300?
While full specifications have not been revealed, leaks indicate an electric motor exceeding 3000W, a removable 72V battery, and adjustable front and rear suspension. The bike is designed for off-road use, featuring a 21-inch front wheel and an 18-inch rear wheel.
Is the program available in Saudi Arabia and the Gulf?
The program is open globally, but priority is given to residents of the United States and Europe. However, applicants from the Arab region can apply, and Segway may expand the program later. If the bike reaches the Saudi market, the estimated price after discount would be around SAR 15,000.
