“Was a few months waiting for the kid but I had been told about the Swytch system. I fitted kit to my roadbike in couple hours. Its fairly easy. I have been using the bike for past few months and it works fine. I only use it on about 20%.power. Not sure of range-probably 30 kms at least. Its ok to cycle with dead battery anyway. Very pleased overall.”

“Best purchase I’ve made in a long time. I always had trouble riding the hills of Vermont, now I’m back biking with confidence.”

“Easy to install with a minimum of tools and skills. The instructions were clear and detailed. The bike rides like a charm; plenty of power and smooth uptake. And to boot, I get to ride a bike I am familiar with - my Giant step through bike!”

“Conversion was rather seamless and easy. Instructions for the main kit were clear enough. One thing to improve might be about the additional accessories. While buying them, make sure your bike is compatible with them. Their installation instructions are a bit vague as well. The only downside of using a Swytched bike might be the additional set of cables running around but now I have a very nice e-bike that does not show off, which is a great asset if you live in the Netherlands. It is very fun to ride now for my daily commute to work. Also, when the battery is not installed, it is just an ordinary bike again. Overall, I am glad I made this purchase.”

“I retrofitted my old (early 1990's) Bianchi Volpe (hybrid) with a Swytch kit about 4 months ago. It was easy to install - took maybe an hour? 250 miles city riding so far and I love it. My knees aren't what they used to be, and I'd mostly stopped biking around town due to aches and pains & the abundance of hills. I wanted something that would let me keep using my beloved old bike, but provide enough kick to take the curse off the hills around me. Initially concerned that the Swytch would be under-powered (250W motor) & a front hub motor, which seemed less beefy than the other options out there. What I found is that this actually works perfectly well - gives me all the boost I need to get up hills with a normal amount of peddling, and let me do straight runs at near top speed. Looking back on it I spent way too much obsessing over which wattage motor / type drive to use. This has been a perfect solution. Being able to take the battery with me is also very nice - one less thing to worry about being stolen. The various components that get installed on the bike feel very solid & well made. If you're looking for something simple, light weight, relatively inexpensive, well made, and that will give you enough power to help push you along at a level that feels like biking when you were 20 years younger this is a great option. I added the throttle to my order. It's been worth it - allows me to power up when I'm fiddling with toe clips, or other odd moments when I need to keep moving without peddling.”

“I smile ear to ear feeling the mysterious power that has converted my existing and beloved bike to an ebike. It is truly amazing that for a fraction of the price of a standard ebike, I can receive a Swytch kit and empower my bike myself. Riding is such a joy again, and hills are no longer a drag on the journey.”

“I absolutely LOVE my Swytch kit. It surpassed all expectations, and transformed my ride from a bike I loved to ride to a bike that I can't wait to ride again. Installation was simple, straightforward, and quick (it took me about 45 minutes). I have ordered another kit for another bike and some additional power packs. Highly recommend!”

“Superb little converting kit. Definitely get the extra throttle or thumb acceleration button as hard without it. 5 star product, only issue was wheel didn't quite fit in pins when putting together, had to file down the bike spoke a little”

“Overall, I am extremely pleased. The ride is smooth and powerful. I have had two glitches: 1) on installation I had to file/grind the wheel axle to get it to slip into the front fork dropouts, and 2) the plastic disc with the magnets tended to drift away from the bottom bracket towards the pedal crank; I wound several turnings of wire around the pedal axle, on the pedal side, which now keeps the disc firmly aligned. It’s now a joy to head out for an errand, a visit with friends, or just a ride, with plenty of juice to get there and back!”

“I love the kit. I loved my bike and just wanted a bit more speed, less sweat, and more range. A heavy ebike didn’t have the light, simple joy of a bicycle. Swytch is perfect. I’ve got the Air kit and have never needed more range (I bring the charger on my commute). I get so many questions about it from other cyclists. 10/10 recommend!”
