Swytch Bike Reviews

"Week one, only been able to use it once but liked it, excited about using it more."

"My experience with Swytch was very good overall. We converted two of our ten or so road bikes to ebikes. One is a '74 Schwinn Paramount and the other is a Rivendell Rambouillet. The conversions were easy enough. The reasons I won't give these kits a solid 5-star review are that the elegant bikes we started with are now rather ugly, with thick wires running all over the place, and the bikes are much, much heavier. I am glad we got the upgraded OLED controls but the displays are hard to read while cycling. There are, however, many upsides. Ordering was simple, help when I ran into a couple of problems was quick and, most important, the kits work well. My wife is 76 with a bad hip and I am 73 with a bad knee and, while we still ride our pure pedal-powered bikes, motorized assistance is welcome on occasion. The main reason for purchasing these Swytch kits was to determine whether it might be worthwhile to pay $6000 or more for purpose-built road ebikes, we did not want to take the plunge if we weren't certain we would like them, and the kits have served that purpose admirably. We now know that we definitely like ebikes; the question today is whether it is worth $12,000 to upgrade to purpose-built ebikes that are lighter and look more elegant and that is a tough call since they might not work any better than our Swytch conversions."

"After receiving my Swytch Go kit, my whole cycling experience has changed for the better. The biggest downside of having a non-electric cycle is the uphills, especially when the main purpose of my bike is daily commuting. With the Swytch kit, I don't even feel the incline anymore, and it has reduced my travelling time drastically. \r\n\r\nThe delivery of the kit took longer than initially promised, by a few months. But they assured me it was due to high demand. The only other minor issue with the front motor Go kit is the additional resistance that is encountered when exceeding the set speed limit or when pedaling with the kit switched off.\r\n\r\nCustomer service was exceptionally efficient and quick and helped me solve every issue that I encountered.\r\n\r\nAdditionally, I recommend buying the optional battery pack mount, as you can securely lock the removable battery pack to the frame of your bike with a lock and key system without having to worry about someone stealing it."

"I've bought a second battery from you and it's made all the difference. Although it's only at it's best when used on eco. But I only want my little folding bike as a shopper so for me it's great \ud83d\udc4d"

"Happy with equipment that I purchased. Battery on full charge get me everywhere I need to go. As I ride all week purchased 2nd battery so never going to be out of full power. I do recommend Swytch products they are easy to deal with. They could be open about when you are going to receive order is my only issue."

"Use every day to go to work! 14kms"

"My Swytch bike works properly and helps me when I go with our dog in the trailer on a little tour.\r\nOnly one things was a hassle during installation: The standard pedal sensor does not fit on pedal axles, that are conic and not straight. Do I had to do some cutting on the plastic and glue it to the pedal axle."
