Ninebot |SEGWAY | MiniPRO Counter-Balance Weight Holder

thingiverse

Hey Guys, I just recently purchased a pair of Ninebot | SEGWAY - MiniPRO's for my wife and I. The only thing I didn't prefer was the knee-bar for steering. I wanted a little traditional-style MiniPRO segway with a handlebar, just like the big ones :) I noticed, after I installed the handlebar, the weight-balance was off and although it rode just fine, if you get off of it, you cannot let it balance itself, because of the added forward weight of the handlebar. So, I found some counter weights on Amazon (about 4.6 lbs of weight) and I designed a Counter-balance weight holder to mount to the lower section of the handlebar unit. It works like a charm! It self-balances up-right without me having to hold onto it after I get off. It also allows me to to use it in the remote controlled - bluetooth driving mode again. It's amazing watching this thing ride around balancing itself with that long handlebar :) It works GREAT! Hopefully someone here might find this useful. I'll leave the link to the handlebars I purchased, and counter-weights, just below: Neewer Aluminum Alloy 4.6 pounds / 2.1 kilograms Removable Counter Weight | https://amzn.to/2XJIdmL Ninbot-MiniPRO HANDLEBAR | https://amzn.to/2YAuVGc
