I have a Universal kit on my Orange E4 (which is probably sacrilege but at 84 who cares) and I love it. It flies! I can do all the recreational routes again that I used to do when I was 65. I highly recommend it. Bit of irritation over delivery. I ordered it in September 22 and was told it would arrive in March 23. It eventually arrived in mid June. A couple of thing to comment on. I found one other point that mentioned in the manual, regarding the magnetic ring alignment and its sensor. It's advised where there is limited fitting space, the bracket and lugs should be removed from the sensor before securing with plastic ties. I found, on the painted surface of the bike's frame this method did not secure the sensor tight enough. I had to re-enforce with plastic tape. The Mount comes with 3 extra leads that are intended for accessories. In my experience electronics and British wet weather don't go well together. Perhaps some protective caps could be added to the kit Finally, I'd like to buy an OLED display or a second battery but it appears I have buy a full kit to achieve this. So far no reply to my query with Customer Service Apart from these minor niggles, the kit is brilliant. Highly recommended

It took the company some time to get up and running and deliver the kit, but once they did i clocked 500km on my electric conversion and so far i am pretty happy with it. The product is well designed and engineered, the small battery is very portable and big enough for daily commutes. The motor is small but strong. I feel that the motor programming could be a bit more refined but it works.

Really pleased with the latest Swytch kit installation on my Brompton. It took about 30mins to install, carefully, and has given me a much needed blast of power ever since. Loving it and an occasional 10mile ride I do on this folding bike has seen a reduction in journey time from 45 to 30minutes and I don't have to take a change of clothes anymore as I don't get hot and sweaty cycling anymore - what a transformation! A great minimalist kit, now the battery is so neat, that really suits the Brompton cycles, and the battery and charger even fits neatly in the Brompton front bag pockets when its all stowed-away - brilliant!

I love riding with my Swytch. My commute always ends with a smile. Installation of the magnetic disk was finicky on my crank which is admittedly different from most standard cranks. The disk shifted around after a bumpy ride causing lag before the motor kicks in. A little nudge to re-center and I'm back to the drag races. Maybe some double-sided PSA will help keep it in place. The OLED display wouldn't mount on my drop bars as the clamp wasn't big enough for the skinny sections. Reached out to Swytch support and they helped with getting a handlebar extension to solve the problem. Support was responsive, friendly, and great all around. My mates at work think the install looks very clean and often ask to take it for a spin.

My Swytch bike makes me happy because it makes hills more tolerable and my knees don’t hurt as much.

Totally a game changer for my wife. Now that she has the Swytch kit on her bike, I have trouble keeping up with her on my regular mountain bike! She loves her bike now, really glad we went with the Swytch!

After the customary brief look at the instructions I set to work seeing whixh of our 4 bikes the kit was most compatible with, as it turned out only one. Once fitted however the kit works really well. Unfortunately it took best part of a year to arrive in it's entirity but getting plenty of use since :-)

I have the max battery. Has made cycling enjoyable again! I only tend to set it on the lowest assist needed. Though this is enough to get me going and get me up the hills with no problem. I've just turned 50 so my knees aren't as young as they used to be!

The Swytch kit is amazing! I don't even't think twice about my commute now because it is so enjoyable. The team are great - I had an accident which meant one of the parts got broken and they replaced quickly and at a discount. I would recommend paying a bike shop to fit it. I do wish the battery lasted a full hour of my commute (it is more like 45 mins) but appreciate this is probably because I bought the smallest battery.

Still having troubles with the mounting of the magnetic-reader. The bike has oval frame and there is little to none space between frame and pedals... :-( So... I still cannot ride my "new old eBike" *sigh*

Like walking at 14 MPH. Great experience with Swytch in Portland, Ore. Removes barriers to otherwise burdensome trips- long, uphill-both-ways kinda travel.

Easy to order, easy to install, and my favourite bike is now powered, and I’m loving it.

Good customer service. I bought the Max battery and it gives me about 10km on a single speed bike with one or two 300 m steep hills in. Could be more, could be less. Happy with the regarding and fitting was about 2 hours but would be less if you regularly work on bikes.

Love my power but the display/control is very dangerous as not possible to switch down a level without going all the way up and then down to zero again and having to double click each time. Really don’t like this at all. I wonder if there is a safer option?

Now that I have the switch kit I’m very happy with it . The problem was the ordering it took a long time to come , nearly 8 months ! It is also not as easy to put together as the advert says. My husband had to make adjustments to my bike forks but now it’s up and running I love it.
