Die Steckverbindungen der Kabel sind beim Brompton genau an der Stelle, die beim falten des Fahrrads gesteckt werden. Da rutscht leider regelmäßig der Stecker raus, der Motor funktioniert dann nicht mehr. Nervig, aber leicht zu beheben.
It is a treat to be assisted along at amazing speeds. The motor takes the curse out of transporting heavy loads. I wish there were a way to go slow. Pedaling slowly has no effect. The motor is either on or off. If on it goes too fast, if off no assistance.
All considered, a boon.
Wonderful product to upgrade and extend the life of your existing bike - why dump and buy new? Choose the responsible alternative.
We ordered two Brompton kits at the same time, one came as expected with the new MAX battery the second arrived with a MAX battery but the rest of the kit was for the previous style battery. They did not work together. So there was a few weeks of back and forth before this was resolved. A bit frustrating. Once installed the kits work great and help flatten the hills a bit for these later 50’s riders. My biggest issue with the kit performance is that there is more drag on the motor wheel when powered off than would be ideal, it makes for slightly less enjoyable power off riding.
The kit now works well. I have two batteries that give me a 60-70 Km range (and I ordered a new one that should allow me to ride all day).
Initially I experienced several problems due to a bad battery that I received (it lasted about 10-15 Km, i.e. less than half of the rated range) and due to customer support being slow in acknowledging that there was a problem. Eventually they sent me a replacement battery and everything was smooth. But it took over a month to resolve.
And it should be easy to add a charge monitor to the controller, to check the health status of the battery and notify you when it no longer (or never, as in my case 🙂 ) holds the stated charge.
So... technically great, logistically less great.
But overall I am happy because the bike now works well and I enjoy riding it a lot!!
System works well. Good idea if you have an existing bike and don't want to go to the expense of buying a new electric bike. Fitting reasonable straight foreword, only drawback is the number of cables which need to be fastened to the frame but that's only to be expected. Delivery time is the only thing I disliked nearly 5 months for me.
Okay, switch kit is very good time it takes to get one. That's another question. Mine took 2 months longer to get than I was told my delivery date. So if you are prepared to wait longer for your kit then they say go ahead. Otherwise don't bother
Appropriately powered. Best factor is the convenience of attaching and un-attaching the modest sized battery.
The kit is great. Wish I only got it when I was expecting it which was 2 months after the delivery date. So if you're thinking of one of these are going to turn up when they say it's more likely not just make sure that you understand that when you order
Still doing well. Only complaint is the plastic disc with the magnets. Every time my foot gently brushes against it I must stop and realign it. Big bummer.
Good product overall. Took a long time to be delivered but it was worth the wait (I went with the preorder GO kit). I enjoyed the installation process which is simple enough, the hardest part being the pedal sensor. I can see how they have made certain compromises to make the kit universal, for example with the cable lengths - results in a bit of a mess, compared with bespoke e-bikes with internal cable routing. But for the money I am impressed with the ease of installation and the performance from the motor. Transforms an old utility bike into something you want to ride.
my go+ kit arrived in the time frame they said it would. all parts were in the box, super easy install. worked as it should on the first ride. all info for setup is in the kit. best thing to bring new life to an old bike. super fun
Delivery was quite delayed, but I have been absolutely delighted with my Swytch bike now it is here!
Although my Swytch conversion was delayed I am very happy with my purchase. I managed to fit everything myself with a little assistance from customer support
Great kit, easy to fit but customer service on line was not great, so would advise a help line for customer service would be the way to go, or improve the online process. Wanted a price for a black wheel and could not get a straight answer. Order was delayed twice, not ideal.
Commute is much more fun now! A great way to ease into the e-bike world, especially if you are already in love with your non-E-bike, like I was. I recommend taking extra caution during ordering to ensure you get the right wheel size and fit. Also the install process is not trivial, but doable. Great retrofit product overall.
Really fantastic: great for hauling groceries, my kids on a tandem, or just me up a 20% grade. Easy to install.
I have the old version LED display, which makes it difficult to toggle power for flat v hilly. The transition from a steep hill to the plateau can cause a dramatic lurch. I also wouldn't mind another step that is half the first amount of power.
Customized Triathlon Outroad SFDP 18 project completion with Swytch kit. Good stuff!
Received my Switch kit to fit onto a Brompton. The installation manual was a little confusing. Differences between instructions in the hard copy manual and instructions on their website.
You need to be extremely careful in how you run the cables to ensure your bike will fold up after installation (don't cable tye all the Brompton brake cables etc together or it won't fold).
Once installed the bike did ride quite well. I tested it on the flat, and also on a hill. It coped with both. It can be a little jerky, accelerating then decelerating, but I'm sure I'll get used to that, and perhaps resolve this with better setup.
It's 3 months since I received my Bike Kits (I ordered 2 kits), but I am still waiting for a tool kit which was ordered as an accessory. I would have really expected this to have arrived by now, but it hasn't. However Customer Support at Switch assure me it will be delivered eventually.
It is great.
Hi, I am very satisfied with my swytch bike kit I received here in the Bay Area. My order did take some time to arrive at my home but, I was delighted when it finally came.
I'm pretty happy with the overall design with the exception of the weight of the battery on the handle bars makes for some caution when the bike is on the kick stand. The bike can become unbalanced and fall over because of the weight of the battery pack. The on and off switch on the battery is a bit tricky, because the switch is located, hidden to the right side of the charging hole, and is not seen.
Otherwise, the kit is excellent, lots of power to get my old self up hills with my 1999 Specialized Mountain Bike. On relatively flat roadways, I can get 14 to 16 miles on the charge, sometimes more, depending on road conditions. Can be less miles if I am climbing many hills for a longer period of time.
Without the Swytch ebike kit, I would not be able to ride my beloved bike in the Sierra Foothills, where I often take my bike.
I have recommended the bike kit to some of my friends and family who don't want to part with their older bikes or the high dollar expense on a new electric bike.
Thanks so much for the product, well worth the money and wait it took to get to my home.

Took forever to arrive. A bit fiddly to put together since the manuals and pictures are a little confusing. For example, I ordered the twist grip throttle control but couldn’t find instructions until I had searched every available manual. The leads coming from the max battery are not color coded well either. Despite these annoying issues it worked first time! Nice smooth ride, no problems. I have yet to test it on a long run or up significant hills.
The Switch kit is fantastic, once installed, but I didn't find it quite as simple to install as other reviews suggest. In addition, none of the manuals on the internet gave specific information about the battery supplied with my kit. However, is well worth the effort of installation because you save a great deal of money and the motorised bike is now a viable alternative to the car for fairly short trips in the hilly part of the country where I live.
I have a Giant Escape bicycle and I love the bike. I'm in my seventy's and I was looking for a little help on a head winds and hills. I added the Swytch bike kit with the Go+ locking battery to my bike. Watching the on line video really helped with the installation. It does exactly what I was looking for! I can't believe how much fun riding is now. It was worth the wait. They kept me informed each week and told me when it would be delivered. I'm very happy.
Pleased with the concept of converting an existing bike to an e-bike. I paid a bike mechanic to do it. Early on, we started having issues with the control unit/battery delivering consistent power to the powered wheel. Erratic Power delivery would usually start at about the 60% power level remaining in the battery. The customer service was usually very good, especially with us being thousands of miles apart!
Swytch did end up replacing the power unit after having me try several different things. Looking back, I think that part of the issue is a slightly underpowered charging unit for the battery packs as I have since started using a charging unit designed for an Aventon e- bike.(with very close supervision!)
And both battery packs seem to more fully charge and the power delivery is spot on clear down to below 40%.
Good and instant support, no problems with communication and service.
Poor delivery time, poor product remediation
I ordered a Swytch kit Air about a year ago. Took about 4 weeks to get delivered to Australia. I asked a few clarification questions before finalising the order and they were answered promptly.
Install was straightforward enough but getting the pedal sensor mounted was the most difficult and cable ties and double sided tape was never going to be a reliable solution. Removing the pedal arm and securing to the crank was a much better and more permanent solution. It’s been working trouble free since mounted this way.
Riding experience is very good although the Air battery will only last over 10kms if used on the lowest assist and you don’t encounter too many hills. Hills and higher assist levels will chew up battery a lot faster. Turning on/off the power as required conserves power for when you need it.
Overall it suits my style and capabilities 100%.
It makes biking easier for an old guy !
I am enjoying my Swytch bike kit. I installed it myself, which most folks with some mechanical skills can do also. It worked, and continues to work, flawlessly after 3 years of use. I also installed one on my wife’s bicycle, but she rarely rides anymore. (We are both 76 years old)
One of the batteries has deteriorated to the point that it only will charge to about 60%. I’m not unhappy about that, as I know frequent charging/discharging are hard on these batteries. I have ordered a replacement battery ( the new style) and I hope these last longer.
The only thing I was not satisfied with was the weight of the original battery. They were fairly heavy, and I didn’t care for that. Removing the battery when parking the bike somewhere that wasn’t our home, and carrying them around was cumbersome. That being said, I believe the new style batteries should be more dependable and lighter.
For the price of the kit, and if you have a quality bicycle you like, this kit has everything you need to make your regular bike a E-bike.
