18.4 mi estimated · 22 mi claimed
The claim is 1.2× the estimate. How this is worked out.
Segway's F-series is the one people buy when they want the Max's polish in something they can still get up a flight of stairs, and the F2 Pro is the version with enough motor to mean it. A 900-watt peak and a 22% rated slope put it above the entry commuters on hills, and the 35 mm front spring fork plus self-sealing 10-inch tires does most of the work on broken pavement. Its quiet strength is security: owners who have run it alongside a NIU consistently single out Segway's PIN unlock as the best anti-theft implementation in this class, and the app locks the wheel rather than just sounding an alarm. Two things to know. Segway quotes 22 miles at the full 20 mph rather than the flattering eco number most brands print, which is unusually honest but makes the F2 Pro look worse on a comparison table than it rides. And the 220-pound rider limit is low for a 40-pound scooter, so heavier riders should size up to the Max line rather than assume the motor will cope.

35-55 lb — you can lift it into a boot or over a kerb, not carry it far. Estimated range is our own calculation from the battery capacity; the claim is the manufacturer’s.
Features
- Front spring suspension, 35 mm travel
- 10-inch self-sealing tubeless tires
- PIN unlock and app wheel lock
- Apple Find My
- Front disc brake with electronic ABS
- Three speed modes
- IPX5 water resistance
In its favour
- Owners rate the PIN unlock and app lock as the best anti-theft setup in this price class
- Quotes its range at full speed rather than in eco mode, so the number means something
- Self-sealing tires remove the most common commuter failure
- 22% rated slope is real hill capability for a single-motor commuter
- Front disc plus electronic ABS stops better than the drum brakes on cheaper rivals
Against it
- 220-pound rider limit is the lowest of any Segway in this catalog
- Front-only suspension leaves the rear wheel to the tire
- Owners moving up from a NIU note the deck is narrower than it looks
- At 40.8 lb it is right at the edge of what most people will carry upstairs daily

What owners say
Summarised from owner discussions and long-term owner write-ups.
The F2 Pro is bought by people who want a Segway that is not a Max, and the reason it works is the security. Owners who park in public rate the PIN unlock and app wheel lock as the best implementation in this price bracket, and Find My integration means a stolen scooter is at least traceable. The build quality holds up: riders at a couple of hundred miles report no stem play, no rattles and no tire trouble.
Where it disappoints is comfort and capacity. The front spring fork is real suspension but a long way short of a hydraulic one, and riders on broken city pavement say so. The 220-pound limit is the lowest of any Segway here and catches people out. And at nearly 41 pounds, owners who genuinely have stairs in their commute find it heavier in practice than the number reads.
What owners like
- The PIN unlock is the anti-theft feature owners single out most: it locks the wheel rather than just sounding an alarm, and riders who park on a campus rate it above NIU's equivalent
- Owners who have run 200 miles on one describe the build as tighter than a NIU of the same price, with no stem play developing
- Apple Find My is built in, which several owners treat as the deciding feature over otherwise-similar scooters
- Segway's dealer network means a broken part is orderable rather than a research project
- Self-sealing tires have removed punctures as a topic in owner threads about this model
Common complaints
- The spring fork is modest — owners in cities with bad pavement report it is not enough on its own
- Riders moving up from a NIU consistently describe the deck as narrower than it looks in photos
- The 220 lb rider limit rules it out for a lot of people who would otherwise buy it
- It is heavy enough at 40.8 lb that owners who carry it upstairs daily regret the choice within a few months
