“Good product Works very well for short journeys Fitting was complicated by axle not fitting forks Fault with controller was disappointing Fixed by switch quickly but poor communication - did not answer email request for help and no phone advice line”

“The Swytch bike delivers! Now I can get to work on my bike in half the time. When an extra part was needed I received it pretty quickly. I think it’s a great value for the price.”

“I am a Trade Plate Driver and use my Brompton to get me to and from train stations and vehicle pick-up locations. Adding a Swytch kit has transformed my working day. I now rarely use taxis and can cover 15-20 miles in a day, cruising at 15 mph with only gentle pedalling in top gear. Although I am aged 70, I can manage most hills without having to get off and walk. Although the Swytch kit does increase the weight of the Brompton, I can still manage to carry the bike up and down stairs at station over-bridges and I regularly take the bike on the London Underground. As others have noted, the quoted battery life is very optimistic. It might be achieved on a very smooth, level surface without a head wind, but in practice, I only get 12 miles out of the larger battery pack. (I always carry a spare battery because of the limited range of the Switch). I use the Bro Block for mounting the battery. This places the battery in an ideal position and allows the bike to be folded without removing the battery. Fitting the Swytch kit needs to be done with care. I had to file the crank a fair bit, in order to fit the PAS disc. I also had to trim 2mm from the front fork ends because the drop-out was too deep to accommodate the locking tab of the anti-rotation washers. The small wheels and high tyre pressure required for a Brompton, can make the ride very bumpy and jarring. I found this could make the main connector to the hub motor separate. I fixed this using three cable ties – one around the cable either side of the connector, The third, tying the first two ties together. I highly recommend the Swytch kit, but don’t skimp on the cost - go for the larger battery.”

“Pomysł z zakupem swych bike był super, mieliśmy 2 rowery dekathlonowskie, serwis pomógł nam dobrać odpowiedni rozmiar zestawu, czas oczekiwania na zestaw został określony przez firmę i wszystko było ok. Montaż zestawu mimo braku polskiej instrukcji był prosty. Pierwsza jazda na rowerach niesamowita, lekkość jazdy, wjeżdżanie na górki bez zmęczenia, było tylko jedno ale przeceniliśmy możliwości baterii i po przejechaniu 20 km wysiadło wspomaganie mężowi ale jechał na najwyższym ustawieniu prędkości, ja tak wysoko nie ustawiałam więc przejechałam 3 km więcej. Czekamy na wiosnę aby dalej testować swycha już na mniejszym ustawieniu prędkości i co tu dużo pisać nie możemy się doczekać. Nigdy nie myślałam ,że będę marzyć o jeździe na rowerze.Jazda super, cena zestawu również same plusy”

“Nearly all the parts work greatly,but not the standard control power unit (without display).I couldn't set any lower speed or power,even at the lowest settings it speeds up to more than 30 km/h.Therefore the larger battery gives only 20 km of range because of less power from myself.So I got the OLED display which is very good, but expensive.With this I could set a fitting power step and more range.If you have to pay the full price for the set,maybe its a litte bit high.But the battery format is much better than most of these bottle cage batteries of your competitors”

“The kit is very good and enables me to continue using the bike that has been my favourite for many years. Easy to fit and just the right amount of help for my aging legs. All instructions on PDF are thorough and easy to understand. Messages sent via this website do receive helpful attention quite quickly. There are just a few niggle which means that I only give 4 stars. I had to pay upfront in full and wait over 4 months for delivery. UPS delivery is appalling. £700 worth of kit was left on my doorstep while I was away from home. It could easily have been stolen and the loss would be mine. Similarly when I purchased an extra battery, UPS dumped the package on my doorstep without contacting me. There is a problem with the OLED control panel. The power level buttons are too small and difficult to operate while riding. A small bump in the road can send the power level way up or down to zero. I hope that this might be improved.”

“It was fairly easy to fit and reassuring that they checked I had done it properly. I was a little disappointed by the range of the battery, but glad that I had bought a kit and a spare battery. I was glad that the kit arrived later than I had been told, so it was not put on my bike I do long rides on, but is used for shopping trips mainly (several miles into town and back up a serious hill!). It would have been very disappointing on the longer-ride bike!”

“It all works very well. The instructions are reasonably easy to follow but the magnetic disk is a challenge. I certainly would recommend this e-bike conversion kit.”

“Delivery of my Swytch kit was within the window - though only just, by one day! The A frame mount I'd ordered wasn't available, so I was offered a seat post mount instead, which works well, though the cable runs are long. (the A frame mount has very recently now arrived, but I'm thinking twice about fitting it as all the previous work will need to be redone). So far no problems with the kit, which seems pretty robust and was generally easy to fit. Customer service was great though, quick responses, extra cables provided free of charge - very good indeed. The riding experience is good - smooth power delivery and good response to the brake sensors etc. Changing power levels on the standard handlebar mounted LED display can be a bit tricky on the move though. The lowest power setting is enough to overcome the drag of the motor and provide gentle assistance, giveing just over an hour's riding, depending on the terrain. On higher settings the battery drain is noticeably greater. So for local rides it's perfect, but I've bought another conventional bike for longer trips!”

“Great design and easy to install. Battery doesn't last as long as described though.”

“Perfect except for the battery (30kms) which I have never been able to do more than 22 to 24 kms with the minimum power... I would have liked to be able to do at least 30kms with minimum power...”

“The company was responsive via email to problems I had with my initial computer module. I received replacement parts quickly. The kit comes with very clear instructions and easy installation. Setup was also relatively clear.”

“Very nice design!! Sensor is bulky and not so efficient it mooves very easily, should try another at the botom bracket. In the several kits instaled this components fad fail: Control handle bar mount, display failed twice, You did response unfortunately you didn´t send parts to Mexico so I had to bring them from Laredo.”

“Makes use of one of my ordinary bikes when I am not using my electric Brompton. Only criticism is that the battery needs to have more range - I now have both types of battery.m”

“Very happy with the product and performance of the bike. I have a Brompton & it was not very clear on the website that you need a different Swytch product for this type of bike so initially I ordered the wrong one but once this was established they quickly altered the order. The only problem I found when fitting it - is that the mudguard bracket, which also incorporates the latch when the bike is folded, did not fit on the larger diameter wheel hub spindle & required a 'home-made' alteration which was not ideal.”

“I do enjoy my swytch kit adaptation. I get to keep my own bike and enhance it at the same time. The setup might require help if you have no mechanical skills(tools confuse you). Regardless, get one and feel the freedom!”
