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.

I’ve had my Swytch Eco conversion since January 2021 and have found it to be a very effective conversion kit. I wanted something to assist my ride, not pedal for me, and I find this solution ideal. From the off, it was very easy to install and very neat when installed, with no bundles of wire showing as you get with most conversion kits. As for it’s performance, it has made a big difference to my cycling experience and I find myself doing a greater number of longer rides than I did before fitting the kit, as it does ‘flatten out’ those hills

Love, love, love my new Swytch (Pro) conversion kit. It was very starighforward to put together. I am gear savvy, but even speaking objectively, with the informration received with the bike and offical online tutorials, I was very impressed, In fact, I was a little confused with how to turn the power pack on frist time (after charging), but with a quick view of the video on youtube, I was ready to go. I am 6'1" and 225 lbs and have the 28" conversion kit which is suprisingly speedy - of course I've kept my settings on the factory speed setting ; ) I've waited a few months for delievry and can honestly say I am thrilled with the product, support from Swytch and the experience in general. Lifelong customer from this point on.
