“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.”
“Our kit arrived and it was simple to install. Then fun began! We live in a very hilly area which makes it less than ideal for a leisurely afternoon bike ride but now the hills no longer detour is from the enjoy a cruise!”
“Slight downside of delivery delay, but having now had my Swytch ebike since December 2020, I have not looked back! I have been cycling to work for the past 12 months and Swytch ebike has made the 14 mile round trip a lot quicker. The battery is excellent and even the lowest power setting helps with the steep hills between East and North London, meaning I don’t arrive to work in a sweaty mess! Thanks Swytch you have reinvigorated my live of cycling!”
“My partner wanted to smooth out the hills where we are on the edge of the Peak District, but didn't want to change her bike. Then we came across Swytch Bike online.
I'll cut to the chase, this is an excellent e-bike conversion solution. Simple to install, easy to operate, and put quite simply, it does the job brilliantly.
We ordered the Swytch kit through one of the 'pre-order' campaigns in April 2021. Delivery took a couple of weeks longer than expected, arriving mid-July 2021. Understandable given the current global disruption, and comms were great, so we always knew where things were up to.
Once the kit had arrived it took 90 mins at most to fit, including mounting the new tyre, fitting the disc rotor, and sorting the wire routing. This was mainly due to the excellent instructions, both included with the kit and available online.
With the battery charged up we headed out for a first spin. The style of my partners bike means the battery is quite high up, raising the centre of gravity. This felt a little odd for all of 60 seconds, but nothing after that. Riding the bike, even on the lowest power setting was a joy. The motor kicks in just enough to give that gentle assist. On the higher settings the assistance is far more noticeable, and certainly makes short work of hills, even the 10%-15% gradients we have tried so far. And on the flat with no motor assistance riding is just as easy. Yes, the bike is little heavier, but not noticeably so, and it doesn't cause a problem. We also opted for the 'black' version of the motor and wheel (as an extra), and pleased we did as it matches the bike perfectly, and if it wasn't for the battery you wouldn't really notice any difference
I was slightly worried about how easy it would be to change a tube roadside if the wheel needed to be removed, but having had to deal with that now I can safely say there is no issue. Just have a 17mm spanner in your tool kit.
In the end, If I could I'd give more than 5 stars, for both product and service.”
