Rating: 4.10

“I've had my kit since Feb 2020 and it's helped so much due to a lot of hills in my area and now not only can I cycle up hills with ease I ride much further and enjoy cycling a lot more..what I like is the way you can choose assistance levels depending on how much exercise you want to get out if it..I always go on the lowest level untill I have the dreaded hills to climb that I don't dread anymore..Martin”

“I'm quite new to the E-Bike world but deceived to delve in when I saw the Swytch Kit at 50%. I have to say I am so happy that I did because this kit is amazing. I leave the car at home and ride my bike (5 mines e/w) because it's just so much fun, and with the power turned up, so effortless. I had read some reviews stating the power delivery could be jerky at times. I have experienced nothing like this. the power is there exactly when you want it and will drive you up to speed that at one point scared me enough to back off. The unit itself is rugged and feels well made. Cannot recommend this enough to anyone out there thinking about getting one. Just go ahead, I promise you will be pleasantly surprised.”

“I used the kit to modify my single speed. The wheel size is 700c and has a relatively large gear ratio. I find the bike delivers good acceleration with the pedal assist. Once the bike is up to speed you can defiantly still feel the power giving you an additional boost. The throttle feature is quite useful also. Especially when starting from stationary. I would of liked slightly more power from the bottom of of the throttle but still pretty efficient. The battery pack charging light is quire small and easy to miss when it turns green. Especially when the instructions warn of leaving the battery on charge excessively. The battery pack is also mounted on the handle bars. which adds weight to the turning of the bike. I would of preferred to have the battery mounted in some other position on the frame.”

“Used to commute and so far so good! On the maximum assistance setting when used for around 10 minutes (2 miles) the charging time to full takes around 35 minutes. It would be great to have some type of more durable cover for the battery contact points as the cover is now becoming frayed. Something like a clip-on hard plastic cover would work a treat! :)”

“Living in the Peak District is a privilege but it also presents significant cycling challenges when you find your not as fit as you used to be at 53 years old! Thankfully, Swytch’s excellent universal bike conversion kit now allows me to enjoy areas of Derbyshire that i could not otherwise reach or enjoy on my existing bike. High quality, robust and easy to install, I was able to cycle away with perfectly regulated and smooth power assistance within 30 minutes. Thoroughly recommended. You will enjoy and reap the benefits.”

“We live half way up a hill and my wife couldn't get up the hill before, but she wasn't keen to get an e-bike. However, since I bought her the swytch bike kit we have a newfound freedom, being able to ride from our front door. She is now completely converted. If you ride in hilly areas then I recommend buying the throttle to give hands-free control of the power. Otherwise, taking a hand off the handlebars to adjust the power when you are going slowly up a hill can be a bit wobbly, especially on bridle paths.”

“Slow delivery but when kits arrived I soon had them fitted to our much loved Dawes and Claude Butler bikes. They both worked perfectly first time and we are very pleased with the quality of the kits and the performance.”

“It was very easy to turn a normal bike into an electric one. I have long covid and cycling my bike has been quite difficult recently so my husband came up with the idea of converting my bike. Since I have had the swytch bike, riding my bike has become a pleasure again as I am no longer struggling to go up hills. I would recommend it to anyone as the service, delivery and fitting has been incredibly easy. It is so nice to ride my bike and not feel that I am going to struggle to keep up with my husband!!”

“I've heard so many good things about Swytch from other users and am really impressed with the quality and technology. My conversion was a bit more tricky than it should have been, but then I am converting a 1939 bicycle - it was never going to be straightforward! Really pleased with the performance and the kit in general - and customer support has been great.”

“Swytch Universal Pro Kit I ordered my Switch Bike Universal Pro Kit in February 2021 in advance through its website where I purchased it at discounted rate 40 percent off the original price. Although it was a long wait for my Swytch Bike Universal Pro Kit. The Swytch Bike Universal Pro Kit arrived in early June 2021. Everything arrived in a well packaged box . I followed the instructions fitted the new wheel, sensor and handle bar mount. The installation was mostly straight forward apart from the sensor which fits to the pedal took a bit of time to get in the correct position. In use it is excellent at boosting acceleration from a standstill. It drops away seamlessly when speeds goes above 15 mph and surges back when speeds drop as when encountering a hill. The performance so far is good, time will tell how it performs long term. Registering the warranty took longer. The warranty check in could have been soomther, they should have definitely put examples of all six pictures and the video required at the start of the process.”

“Swytchbike kits are great! We have three of them. As a 74 yr old with back issues, Swytchbike is the only way a can achieve e-bikes that can safely lift onto a bike rack. We transport our Switchbikes all over San Diego county and beyond to take advantage of the many scenic paths and trails. The added power has compensated for my back/leg strength issues and greatly expanded the “rides” that we can safely accomplish. An added benefit is that you don’t need a $600-$700 bike rack to transport them.”

“Slight downside of delivery delay, but having now had my Swytch ebike since December 2020, I have not looked back! I have been cycling to work for the past 12 months and Swytch ebike has made the 14 mile round trip a lot quicker. The battery is excellent and even the lowest power setting helps with the steep hills between East and North London, meaning I don’t arrive to work in a sweaty mess! Thanks Swytch you have reinvigorated my live of cycling!”
