I added mine and love it, the cable ties seemed a bit over done but that disappeared after the first few rides. I get about 30 miles on a full charge averaging 14-15 mph
Hey thanks for the review! You mentioned that you got 3 commutes done on a single charge how much would you say that is in miles/km? wanted to know if it’s accurate enough for the range they have mentioned on the battery. I was looking to purchase the exact same battery size for my bicycle as i think its the best value out of three and i want to start working for uber eats so i want something that stays up for 4/5 hours on a single charge . Thoughts?
Thanks for this review. I think I live in the same hilly city as you and was wondering if it would get you up Prior Park easily or if I should go for the Go++ (worth the extra £70?). The website says the batteries all have the same torque, yet the wattage is different. Should I go for the biggest watts living in Bath? Thank you!
The biggest issue with this review, is that YOU HAVE THE KIT. Do a review where you pay and wait a year before getting the correct delivery without missing pieces! What is the torque on the motor?
They forgot to adjust the assistance speed limit to 32 Km/h, even though I had reminded them that I lived in Canada and he had told me that he would do so. Plus they were missing a part to attach the sensor to the crankset....
Hi, has anyone registered their new Switch Go+? I am asked what the Power Pack serial number is, and told that it's on the reverse side of the Power Pack, but I cannot see anything there. Any help much appreciated.
I have a Step through, and not for my Bicycle. I was thinking of the Max, but If I was serious I would have opted for a Ebike the cost would be less for me and safer.
25kph speed limit on a road bike is pretty pointless, especially considering that, like you said it doesn't provide power untill you drop down to 20kph.
@@EvilijoUK I would prefer the limit to be higher, for example to keep up with urban traffic often limited to 20mph. However the legal framework here means that if an ebike exceeds the current limit, then its classification changes and you need a license and insurance and registration number.
@@PinkLittleElephant I suppose it all depends where you live. Here in Northern Ireland Police are mostly decent and won't harass you over e-bike riding. Both myself and my wife got e-bikes unlocked to 35kph and they are fantastic. So much safer in traffic, cars don't tailgate you and it's a much nicer stress free experience.
@@EvilijoUK there are a lot of hacks available to increase max speed on a variety of ebikes ( possible because other markets like the US have different laws,), but ebike suppliers have to ship to conform with whatever law applies. Same reason why European ebykes only come with 250W motors unfortunately.
In the U.K. they are very common. I’ve seen several of the older kits and 2 in my office and I live in small town in middle of nowhere! Not seen a Go yet though
Once the battery loses its capability to charge, what's the guarantee that it will still be in production? I assume there's no way to replace the cells yourself.
Swytch seem to mostly just supply replacement batteries for the current versions they sell. However, if you have an older system, Swytch offer upgrade versions which includes battery, cables and comtroller, but you use your existing motor wheel.
@erictoft3878 I've checked and adjusted that. The light flashes strongly when adjusted properly indicating its getting a good signal but the motor does not operate anymore. I had to return it. I'm a car mechanic and a bike should be child's play but it's a dodo
first of all it doesn't fit every bike and you had better make sure it fits yours because if it dissent they will not refund your money. its over priced, you have to wait almost a year to get it and then if there is a problem, TOO DAMN BAD
When I hear or see no disclaimer of any kind in a video, not even in its the description, it is implicitly stated that the reviewer has purchased the product at retail price and has not been given any compensation of any kind. If it's not the case, it's fraudulent advertising and I have and will never have any trust in the reviewer, especially one that comes from traditional media. In the present case, my instinct says that the viewer is being lied to by omission. I don't trust this guy. I expect my comment to disappear if I'm right. And remember, even if a correction is made, it's too late. This guy knows better. I would like to be proven wrong.

Nice to see your back. I'm hoping we get regular videos as you seem to be the only UK electric bike RUclips channel. Good video.

Great real use information here; thank you.
Thanks, A clear and informative review.

How does this compare to a standard e-bike in power and feel? Are these available in the USA?
The only constant between ebike conversion kits is that no matter the bike you mount it on, it will make it UGLIER
Did the battery pack interfere with the cables running under the frame?

They will provide a throttle control but you're not supposed to use it on UK roads....I wonder why not?
What type of charger does it use? Is it proprietary?
@@richtea7868 yes, the charger cable has a security dongle type of plug

If you peel back the Velcro on the bottom edge, you’ll see your serial number.

That is the legal limit in the UK
@@PinkLittleElephant Yep, that's why e-road bikes limited to 15.5mph in UK make no sense what so ever.

So untidy with all those zip ties and excess cable.
I don't want to lose use of my water bottle cage :(
I have never seen a swytch bike kit on any bike in my life and I live in a city in America that is extremely bike friendly. Makes me wonder.
In the U.K. they are very common. I’ve seen several of the older kits and 2 in my office and I live in small town in middle of nowhere! Not seen a Go yet though
@@stevelouie5928 I have one in Florida and love it
no. I dıdnt lıke ıt.. every where is full of cable and cable tie...

Great video! I enjoyed it. I'm Senquan, CEO of 100G Smart Tech, and I was wondering if you'd be interested in reviewing our Geeko e-bike kit?
First thing I noticed is, you can’t use this kit if you have a front wheel disc brake😱🥴
There is a disc compatible hub available
My kit is dead within 10 days of arrival
@@satansblargh could be the sensor on the crank. It is a bit sensitive to the magnetic pick up

Swych are a con. they use cheap Chinese crap batteries. their customer service is a joke.
I have had great customer service during installation and use, it works great and I get about 30 miles per charge of 1-1.5 hours
@@erictoft3878 yeah well, for the rest of us who have a problem like it doesn't work with my bike, you get no customer service and no refund

I did mine, paid retail and it works great
@@erictoft3878
Did what ?
The kit is easy to install And fun to use
Bought the kit,installed it and it works perfectly
WAAAAY too expensive compared to the Chinese Kits.
@@-iIIiiiiiIiiiiIIIiiIi- go try customer service at chiny kits bwah hahahaha hochimin
Totally useless if you like step thru only bikes.

@@jhay2414 yes
There’s a little white sticker on the back of the battery that has the serial number
@@erictoft3878 Not on my one :(
I only had it delivered on Thursday. I don't understand how it can be missing this information.
@@jhay2414 So, what seems to be the issue?
