Relatively expensive; Needs wide open spaces

Yes, R22 600 is fair amount of change to be forking out for a gadget or toy, but very few turn out to be as fun as the S3T. If the competitor's offering comes in at three times the price, then the S3T can be considered a bit of a bargain. Added to this, the S3T has a similar top speed and battery range as Segway's equivalent Glider, further adding to the S3T's appeal.
