  • The proper electric has changed a few things to deal with the extra weight and torque;

    completely new fork, strengthened crown, suitable dropouts with better axle connection.
    Strengthened stem
    BXP brake pads
    Cyber rims - probably for Eu law electric bike ease rather than more suitable
    improved fork hook

    The main thing I see is front wheels being ripped out, uncontrollable bikes, fork hooks broken, cables everywhere.

    Worse I have seen it goodbye two front teeth and a broken nose because the front wheel managed to come out of the fork etc.

    Forks being widened is somewhat questionable too!

    So were these incidents due to Swytch conversion kits ?

  • broken hook yes;

    saw this review that was "answered" by swytch..

    most importantly he commented that the control system cut off a bit sharply at 15mph, which is a good observation! Our high torque 40Nm motor is more powerful than most eBike motors, meaning that it gives high acceleration right up to the top speed of 15mph.
    In contrast, other eBikes have weaker and weaker power as the speed increases, meaning that you don’t really notice when the power cuts out to comply with the law (eBikes must not be able to provide power when you are cycling faster than 15mph)

    Inaccurate, they have cadence sensor but not torque, meaning they are very much off/on rather than a smooth moderated system giving a nice output. its like rocket ship and off!
