It’s not every day a locally founded and owned business gets in on a deal with an international brand. You may have heard the name Segway before, and maybe the popular funny Movie “Paul Blart: Mall Cop” (2009) comes to mind, but that’s not the kind of Segway we are talking about here. Segway now has a Power Sports department that takes their technological prowess, along with manufacturing knowledge, into the outdoor power sports market. The expansion of their brand requires dealers they can trust to share their values, as well as the ability to hold the product and support to the same standard.
Power sports dealers from all over Northern Idaho were in the pool for selection to be a certified Segway Dealer and Maintenance provider. One dealer stood out to the people at Segway – Supreme Power Sports, a local brand founded in 2013 with a man and his wife, Jeremy Kinzer, and Steph Kinzer. Segway wanted a dealer that shared the same passion and care for Power Sports. They also understand that their product should be the flagship side by side at any dealer. They were drawn to Jeremy’s ambition to grow as a brand, and want to be along for the ride as he continues to grow. Segway Power Sports was impressed with Jeremy’s knowledge of their product and they needed a dealer that was going to take pride in their product as much as they do. Gary Sargent, the Northwest Regional Business Manager for Segway said “Segway Powersports see eye to eye with Jeremy’s vision to growing the brand. His continued dedication and ability to provide excellent customer service within his community. The knowledge and passion for the Powersports Industry and the ability to continue to grow is why Supreme Powersports is the perfect fit for the Segway brand.”
“Segway Power Sports is a subsidiary of the Segway-Ninebot Group which is a unicorn in the global smart mobility industry. Segway-Ninebot has three major business regions including Asia-Pacific, Europe and America. Their products are sold in more than 100 countries and regions around the world, owning over 1,000 global core patents. Segway products include All-Terrain vehicles, Robotics, Go-karts, Self-Balancing Scooters, Kick Scooters etc. By meeting the diverse, cool and fun needs of users, Segway-Ninebot continues to lead the industry with new product development. The company was founded by American engineer Dean Kamen in 1999.” (powersports.segway.com/brand/about-us.htm)
There’s no doubt that the new Segway UT10 Crew Premium featured at the Cat-FM Home and Garden Show was a hit. Show attendees from all walks of life were drawn to this space aged looking machine. Seeing the Segway brand on such a large vehicle raised a lot of eyebrows. It seems like the perfect machine for chores around a farm, or to hit the trails with the entire family. Only requiring a simple $80 aftermarket kit to make road legal, and only a $17,999 price point, it doesn’t seem all that impractical as far as side by sides go.
Supreme Power Sports at 1905 Main Street, Lewiston, and their location at the Y in Potlatch will be hosting ride days, as well as having Segway Power Sports side by sides in stock. Supreme Power Sports is a local representative for all maintenance, repairs, warranty, tuning, and aftermarket accessories for all things Segway Power Sports. The products that are in stock are the Segway UT10 Standard, UT10 Premium, UT10 Crew Premium, and Villian SX10. You can find more information on segwaypowersports.us and supremepowersports.com.
