very easy to install and if you got a problem, the helpcenter is helpfull. All good the only remark the UPS delivery is not great (i lost my package and had to search for it myself)
My wife loves this as she spins past me which she has not done in the last 25 years ,if everything stays aligned it makes her BIKE FLY ALONG
I ordered and fitted the Swytch kit to my 2018 Giant Fathom MTB to use to commute to work. The MAX battery is only good for 10 - 15 km, around the hills in town. I can extend the range to 20km if I turn off the power on the downhills and flat terrain.
Overall, I'm happy the way it works for short commutes.
Converting our Bromptons has allowed us to get out more and go greater distances
the only thing i wish i had done was also get the hand controls as it would make it a little easier for my wife who is now in her seventies.
I just Love it 🙂
The product works, as advertised. Is well made and sturdy. I had a couple of of problems which you cleared up.
Super easy installation and so far, working flawlessly !! Price seemed reasonable for the value you received, had an order issue and they took care of it promptly.
Relatively Light weight & portable solution to lugging heavier loads up hills … & economical too! Power surges can be a bit erratic when battery starts to run low but longer journeys possible with a bit of planning ( & a spare battery)
👍
I have been using the Swytch Max Kit 16" for my daily commute and occasional trips. It's a great kit that is easy to use, smart and reliable. However, during the kit set-up, I faced the issue of a broken pedal sensor cable. Despite that, I love the Swytch Max Kit.
During the kit set-up, I faced the issue of a broken pedal sensor cable. The Swytch Support team sent me the replacement items for free, which was great. However, the support process was slow and it took a long time for them to respond to my queries. Even after receiving an automated response with a ticket number, I had to wait for days, sometimes even weeks, to get a response from them.
Many people have complained about the slow response time in the reviews, and I believe the company needs to improve its customer support procedures and responsiveness.
Overall, I would highly recommend the Swytch Kit, but you need to be patient with their support team.
I am still getting used to the kit. It looks great. I can now go easily uphill even after 20 km ride!👍
installed the kit on my Brompton last May and very happy after 200 km. I use it for distances of 4-5 km, very efficient. Lots of fun. Perhaps the battery could be improved for longer distances.

This Swytch bike is brilliant. I had bought one before and was very happy with it, and was very pleased to see that they had introduced the Swytch GO range at a lower price point, so I ordered another one.
A few days in and we're very happy with our new purchase. Fitting was straightforward (with a little help from someone who understands bikes better than I do!), and it rides beautifully. Sure, the battery is larger and heavier that the Swytch Max that I bought previously, but given it's an electric bike, that doesn't matter so much. And it's still a lot lighter than an electric bike! And as the battery can easily be removed, you can choose to go light when you don't need the batter.
When you live in a hilly areas like we do, Swytch is really fantastic!
Customer service was good, as we were always kept informed of delivery timelines and the kit was delivered within the 6 months timeframe.
All in all, very happy and looking forward to some lovely rides on our Swytch kitted bike!
Delivery was a little longer than originally expected as the team were ensuring their new Go+ units met their standards. However, in the end I didn't mind the slightly longer wait... and it was worth it! Installation on my Trek bike was really easy and took no more than 45min from start to finish. I wanted it to make the hills to and from work a bit easier... and it hasn't disappointed. Cycled to work for the first time yesterday with the new electric powered Trek and it's made the commute so much more enjoyable and the hills are barely noticeable now.. which is no mean thing given I have a 130m altitude gain in each direction.
Overall, great item and worth the wait!
I live at the bottom of a steep hill and it's a struggle to get my bike up it in my slightly advanced age.
The Swytch Go is fantastic. Those hills are no problem anymore and I still feel like I'm getting a good workout in. It makes the hills easier, but not too easy 🙂
Sure, I could have bought an electric bike for thousands, but I like my original bike and this kit was a breeze to install at a fraction of the price.
Kit arrived and was relatively easy to install. All the parts fitted well and the wheel and spacers fitted perfectly. Once put together, the cables were routed and the bike was ready to ride. No issues. And good customer support when I had a a couple of questions.

The sensors in the Swytch Kit operate using magnets. The magnets on the PAS (Pedal Assist Sensor) ring enable the kit to detect your pedaling cadence. By “cadence,” we mean that the system delivers power when you pedal and stops when you stop pedaling.
The power level can be manually selected on the display, offering five different levels of assistance to suit your needs. If you opt not to include the display when placing your order, the kit comes with a small dongle adapter instead. This adapter allows you to use the kit without the display, with the power level automatically set to assistance level 3.

How does the Swytch Kit impact the handling of my bike?
The Swytch Kit does not negatively impact the handling of the bike. In fact, it helps by providing additional assistance through the front wheel, which pulls you forward as you pedal.
Is the kit waterproof or weather-resistant?
Our Kits are designed to withstand various weather conditions and are rated IP6, meaning it can be used in heavy rain without any issues. However, if the exterior of the power pack sustains cracks or damage, or if the kit is submerged in water for an extended period, it may compromise the waterproofing.
