“After a few weeks, I've been able to fully test the battery (Max). According to the company's website, the Max battery is supposed to have a 15-20 mile (24-32 km) range. It does NOT perform to these specifications. Don't understand this at all because surely they must have made countless performance tests. I tested it a few times going to work and back (round trip: 7 km). After the second trip (so a total of roughly 15 km or 9.3 mi), the battery started to flounder, going in and out of power. And I did not even have the maximum level of assist at 5; it was at 3 for both trips. The coordination between the battery's indicator and the handlebar's LED display was also not on (the former fluctuating between 2 and 3 lights and the LED display indicating 1). Okay, yes, we can charge the battery more often to avoid all this. But their marketing info should be pretty near the mark, and our experience/tests do not confirm this at all. VERY disappointing (not least given the extra cost of the Max battery).”

“So far so good. Even on the lowest setting, I barely have to pedal and this thing is going. It makes it so much easier to bike further. Materials came on time with everything needed. My reasons for knocking a star - the checkout process feels a bit nickel and dimey. So many things are add-ons. Then, after I paid, I got a bill weeks later for my local taxes. Not sure why that wasn't calculated at checkout. I also struggled with install. I wish I could have just paid someone to do it, but my local bike shop wouldn't because they're not certified. I punctured my tire while installing and had to pay to replace it, then apparently installed the pedal sensor backwards so the kit wasn't working at first, and a friend was finally able to help me troubleshoot. I'm now seeing some regular e-bikes for around the same pricing and people are asking me why I didn't just get a regular e-bike. I'm not sure...but too late now.”

“Greetings--this is a "review in progress," since my kit was delivered some time ago but I have not been home until this weekend to start assembling it. FWIW: For those (like me) without smart phones, QR codes are not the most welcome way to deliver instructions! I was able to borrow a friend's Iphone, but.... So far so good, apart from a question as to wheel size. I ordered a 27x 1.25, the size of my old front wheel and tyre. When, earlier today, my bike mechanic mounted a new tyre of that size, it popped off of the rim at less than 70 PSI. I noticed, too, that my old rim can fit snugly within the new one; it's almost as though I have a gravel-grinder wheel now, rather than the old skinny road one. We will try other tyres until one works--and if none do, I will let you know. All parts arrived in apparently intact condition, so thumbs up in this department. FedEx took their own sweet time about delivering, but both packages arrived in good order--all good! I will keep you posted about the wheel/tyre mystery and abut how the bike turns out. Thanks!”

“Recommend buying the throttle, the pedal assist parts are small and plastic and seem flimsy. I did not want to risk pedal assist”

“The price was very good, and the performance is just what I needed to help with aging knees. Sales support is very responsive, prompt and correct. Engineering support is nonexistent.”

“Reasonably easy to install. Quiet and good riding performance. Battery range is far less than advertised. I got the air max and it runs out before I complete a nine mile trip on reasonably flat terrain and medium assistance levels. Swytch have yet to respond to the form I filled in for the warranty in a couple of weeks which is surprisingly slow. Happy overall, disappointing range but nice small form factor.”

“Easy installation, motor works perfect and quiet. The only thing that is not perfect is the cable. Two out of three plugs are not used and are a bit annoying.”

“Does the job of helping me up the hills and was faily staight forward to fit, so I'm really happy with it, the only reason Ive given it 4 stars and not a 5 is the little peddle assist sensor didn't feel secure enough with the sticky pad only so I have zip tied it on for double measure but I do have to wiggle it back in position every now and then”

“Hello, Nice product. It's easy to install except for PAS thing, which is a bit more difficult and need more attention. Instructions are easy to follow. Riding is excellent, I found the system very reactive. 250w and 40nm motor is more than sufficient for my need and my location, I'm usually limiting the power at the level 1 except for the steppiest slope we have. I'm statifsfied with my buying.”
