Power transmission component between motor and gearbox. Counterpart to coupling. Can be driven up to 2500km depending on the condition of the transmission and driving style.
The accuracy of fit of the gearbox coupling is crucial for the smooth running of the Segway gearbox. Particular attention must be paid to correct installation.

Like any vehicle, the Segway PT requires regular maintenance and servicing. Although the upright scooter is not nearly as susceptible to repairs and maintenance as a vehicle with a combustion engine, certain components such as couplings and elastomers are subject to normal wear and tear. These transmission components are very safety-relevant and must be replaced or exchanged after a certain time and depending on the mileage. Due to the high performance of the Segway PT, the gearbox spare parts are subject to heavy wear.
The elastomer sits on the star of the motor shaft and transmits the power to the gearbox of the Segway PT via the coupling. Together with the coupling, the coupling is therefore the part of the vehicle subject to the most wear and tear.
During our service work, we often see elastomers that were long overdue and, due to the lack of effect of the elastomer, have already damaged the coupling and the counterpart on the gearbox, which in turn leads to additional, actually avoidable costs.
With a lot of luck, the shaft will splay in the coupling for a while and maintain the power transmission. At some point, however, the shaft will spin under load = full speed. What this means for the driver’s safety is clear. A fall is inevitable, as the Segway PT can no longer balance itself! At this point at the latest, the tour provider or rental company is at risk due to failure to exercise due care.
To avoid risking major damage to the Segway, you should have the Segway PT serviced regularly and have wearing parts replaced by a specialist. Good maintenance prevents equipment failure during the season!
