“The Swytch kit is not heavy. So it adds very little weight. Even with the battery, the bike does not seem heavy at all. Then when you turn it on, you pedal and get powerful toque surge and the bike takes off. This is my second battery powered bike. This makes each bike trip pleasurable and fun.”

“The installation took a little longer than expected and I also had to remove my kickstand so that the pedal sensor could fit but it was a small price to pay to have the ability to ride for longer distances much more comfortably. I use level 1 assist for most of my riding and I've found that my range is much longer than 30km which is great. I did find a discrepancy between the battery levels of the swytch battery and the OLED display, so I always go by lights on the battery instead. Shipping also took longer than expected, it was about a month delay.”

“Not the cheapest way, but simply the best way to pump up your best bike.”

“The kit has been a great addition to my new bike, despite originally purchasing this for a mountain bike. Now, using a single-speed bike, not only did the kit fit my new bike, but it has helped make my bike ride better than before.”

“Generally very pleased with the conversion and impressed with the company. However, I do find it difficult to judge how much battery power is left. The handlebar sensor lights never correspond with the battery lights. And does a spare battery really need to cost £350?”

“Swytch provides an exceptional solution if you a) already have a good quality bike you love, and b) you don’t want to spend thousands on a new electric bike. It is easy to install and works as promised. The new generation batteries are small enough to carry easily (we chose 2 of the smallest size in order to switch out for longer distances without needing to recharge). The only issue was axle size for the front wheel - the Swytch wheel was 10mm and our bike is 9mm. A quick bit of filing and problem solved (I believe Swytch now produces 9mm axles). All in all, Swytch is an excellent solution. Highly recommended.”

“Love it! The most utilized feature is the pedal assist for me. Keeping that cadence on flat or hilly ground is vital for me and has been a blessing in recovering from a recent hip replacement. I have yet to have an issue with battery wearing down too far during a ride. I've always had more than enough battery life.”

“Love the Swytch. I converted my Raleigh step-through bike into an e-bike effortlessly. Even the guys at my local bike shop were amazed! Don’t wait. Make your bike into an e-bike with the Swytch.”

“The conversion was easy and done in half a day. Tech support was fantastic. The Swytch Kit changed my life, as I have now started to ride the bike much more often. It feels wonderful to ditch the car thanks to Swytch!!”

“I found the kit easy to fix without any problems. Although my bike is quite heavy, it’s made of steel, the Swytch kit has no problem propelling it at a reasonable pace although it struggles on steep hills. I have no regrets buying the Swytch kit and strongly recommend it. Great value for money.”

“I've been an extremely satisfied Swytch customer for several years now and I've successfully transferred the kit from an older bike to my current city bike, The Orb Zeppo. This process alone shows one major benefit of Swytch, it is a transferrable kit from one bike to another - genius. Living in Sheffield, the Swytch makes lighter work of our 7 hills. I still have to pedal, which is great because I like pedalling, so still have to contribute my own effort to every ride but Swytch takes the sting out of all but the most severely steep which are best avoided anyway. Not only have I changed bikes but I've also changed batteries and I've now gone to the Air Max which is significantly more convenient and portable.”

“An almost invisible adaptation means I can keep my cool whilst I breeze past those peddling hard. Cycling with a smile.”

“On the Brompton, an extra can is needed to get the sensor closer to the pedal sensor The advantage of this kit is that I can still carry the bike. The official e brompton is too heavy for me. The first support P1 could have been half as much. I have the accu on the other site of the steeringwheel (facing saddle) I am happy with the Swytch kit”

“Best thing since sliced bread The Swytch experience must be taken in the context of its business model: which is funding its business from customer pre-orders. So given the extremely limited funds it has there are many expectations that customers may feel frustrated with but once you get kit , it is super awesome !!!!! Well worth it.”

“I’m an older bike rider. I’m 70 years old. The Swytch kit has made it possible to enjoy my cycling. Where I cycle and live in Wales is hilly. Therefore I need all the help I can get to conquer the hills. The Swytch unit allows me to do that. It makes an old guy happy.”
