You spotted that. I put it on the front wheel so I could test the throttle.

My wife has an auto-immune disorder which has left her with 60% lung capacity and she's no longer strong enough to ride solo for long, hence me fitting the Swytch system. After a few rides it became apparent that a throttle would be really useful for pulling away at junctions, and in particular...

Something else we've noticed with the kit... The WiFi trip computer on the bars near the Swytch battery goes mad when the power is on. It's obviously picking up interference from the system somewhere. We have put a sensor on the back wheel and mounted the unit on the crossbar, near the seatpost...

I've not ridden it, so can't answer that. The wife says on level 1 on a gradient, it started to struggle (or she did) she then put it to 2 and felt the difference, then 5 and at that, she accelerated to 15mph. Like I said, I'll take it out and I'll have a much better idea of how it feels and...

We have the 'Pro' battery and my wife did about 11 miles in just over an hour with it on level 1 and off for some of the time. It lost two bars of the five on the battery level indicator, so I don't think it would last four hours overall. I might take it out for a ride and leave it on the lowest...

Yeah, I bought a Bafang from Woosh. I specifically wanted a Swytch system for this particular bike.

You can alter the power level with the controls on top of the battery, so you can select one to five, but even in level one, the motor will keep accelerating (on the flat) until maximum speed of 25kmh is reached (in the UK). Turning the power up/down/off isn't the issue. On all other...

September 2020. Put one on my wife's Roberts. She has health issues that prevent her riding uphill or going far. For what it is, it's 'ok'. Considering it's quite minimal – the pack I received had no throttle or brake sensors – I think it worked out pretty expensive in the end. I paid over £500...
