Steampunk Segways

The Pedal-Powered Wooden Legway

If you’re like me, then a Segway is far too technically advanced for personal use. There is an inventor out there with the Instructables username 'bdring' who felt the same way and built the Legway.

The human-powered Legway is built from wood and steel pipe fittings. The Legway even comes with a fake speedometer so you don’t speed down the sidewalk to your local Starbucks.
