It’s surprising to us that it took almost a month since the wide release of Tron: Legacy for a light-cycle–inspired Segway to come, but come it has, nonetheless.
In true fanboy fashion, Ricky Brigante tricked out his Segway i2 Personal Transporter to look like one of Flynn’s grid-gliding beauties, pimping a ride that Xzibit himself would be proud to cruise in.
For something so flashy, Brigante’s method was relatively easy and low-tech. Using only white 2-inch reflective tape, a strand of blue LED Christmas lights and some electrical tape, Brigante took the plain black matte finish of his Segway and artfully applied the design using a mock-up model he made in Photoshop as a guide.
The finished product is simple yet geekishly elegant:
Start to finish, Brigante’s mod time took around four hours. Total cost? About 15 bucks (Segway not included, of course).
Not bad, for a user.
