Universal Swytch eBike Kit Reviews

4.8 Rating 352 Reviews
I have had a Swytch for several months and I love it! The Instruction Manual was full and very helpful and made construction fairly easy. The components are well made and worked first time. As the motor is incorporated in the front wheel which can be removed, it minimises the weight to take in and out of the car if required. A big advantage of Swytch over other electric bikes is that you are riding your own bike which you know will be comfortable. No need to buy an expensive electric bike and then discover it's not as comfortable as you originally thought. This also means the price can be kept reasonable and much less than a good quality new electric bike. All in all a good decision.

I took delivery of my Swytch order in November 2021 and fitted the Swytch kit to my 30 year old Hard Rock bike. I found fitting the kit to the Hard Rock bike to be straight forward. On riding the bike I had a problem with the drive from the Swytch drive cutting out when climbing hills. To Swytch's credit they diagnosed the problem in the battery and were helpful in sending a number of spare parts to solve the problem. I have now fitted the Swytch kit on my old bike to a new bike. Before I bought the new bike I looked into purchasing an ebike at around £2,500 but decided that the Swytch kit I had was OK for my social riding and transferred it to my new bike. The riding experience of Swytch on the new bike has been good and has the advantage of the bike being lighter than a designed ebike. To summarize I have been satisfied with my Swytch purchase and provides good value if you fit to a bike that you already have and like.

I purchased mime C Line Brompton and really wanted a Electric Brompton but, at the time feel like the Electric Brompton from was too bulky and not worth the extra money and the weight. Than come Version 3 of the Swytch Conversion kits. From the commercial look and sound so promising. Once received the kits. The black RIM was as good as the OEM wheel, All components look very high grade and u can tell from the picture the battery holder look solid. After the first ride, feel like the money well worthed. For the amount I spent on the kit, I was able to keep up with mime wife Flyer Upstreet 2 which cost 2x the money. The biggest plus for this kits is the light weight battery. Both the Air and Max is big plus and if u ride less hilly location the range seem to exceed what advertised. Overall it is well worthed money spented.

I am a nervous cyclist with a medically related stamina problem. The Swytch kit has been a revelation. Relatively simple to attach, it makes cycling up slopes/hills and across rough territory extremely easy. Great product with excellent communication throughout and comprehensive support system.
