Universal Swytch eBike Kit Reviews

4.8 Rating 348 Reviews
I got a Swytch kit for my Brompton, and have been very pleased with it. Use it mainly for a 5 mile commute, including one large hill. The kit works extremely well - it is a 3 gear Brompton, and the hill would be a challenge with the Swytch. With it, I can do it easily. One small drawback is that the plastic sensor fittings are quite thin and easily damaged, so that after a few years mine is kept in place with sellotape (!). But Swytch have kindly offered to replace it for free, so no problems there.

Having fitted the Swytch kit 3 months ago I can highly recommend it. It has encouraged me to use my bike when I wouldn't have considered it previously. The larger battery seems to to be ideal for my use. The installation was easy having watched a couple of YouTube videos showing the process. The videos highlight some of the optional installation items that are in the manual, but as I usually find watching is easier than reading :) Build quality of the components seems good and the connectors seal well against our lovely weather. Overall, I am very pleased with my upgraded bike, I just need to order another one so my wife doesn't get left behind when out riding.

I have had my Swytch kit fitted for a few months now and although the weather has been terrible I have enjoyed riding my bike to various pubs near me. I will order another kit for my wife's bike as she seems to disappear into distance behind me whenever we cycle together.

This kit is awesome. Instructions were clear and easy to follow, I had it installed in 30 minutes. I got this kit for my special needs sons bike. He is not to good at using hand brakes so I needed to maintain a coaster brake capability for him. This kit provided that at price significantly less then regular e-bike. I had researched several other modification kits out there . Several at first were cheaper but not everything was included. The Swytch kit came complete. I would recommend either getting 2 batteries or the bigger one. Our Son is getting so much more use out his bike now.

Now I have used my swytch kit for about two weeks. I am very happy with it, because of the simple installation and the very light battery pack. The motor is powerful and i don´t want to ride without it anymore. There are similar products on the market, but the swytch kit is very good quality and for me absolut worth the money. So I can use my bike for longer rides to work.

The Swytch kit enabled me keep my hand built road bike long after the hills became just too steep to enjoy. Cabling and connections are sturdy and, twelve months down the line, the motor and battery are still performing as intended. With a similar bike consisting upwards of £3k now, the pedal assist system has proved the best of both worlds: a comfortable ride without the fear of hills.
