IIRC Otler is part of Giant Bikes. Bikes are ok but I'll not buy one.
If you are to put a Swytch kit on, it's not as simple as it is marketed, the front axle don't fit (although Swytch says it will) and I would not do such a swap without at least, having disc brakes.

Don’t know anyone with a Swytch that has disc brakes, and the actual speeds don’t seem to require it.

Ah yes, a bit of googling does highlight that front axle issue. I was wondering about disc brakes, it will be a bit of a lump with that bike and a child seat and me but on the other hand the swytch doesn't go that fast.
@Jonny69 that's a good point. Given I don't have the bike or a child seat it's a bit difficult guessing on the dimensions.

Any thoughts on these?

I'm looking for something to put a child seat on the back of (so step through/dropped crossbar) that will be usable by me and my girlfriend (only about 3" difference in height) and possibly electric with a swytch wheel.
These look like they meet the criteria but never heard of the make and pretty minimal stuff online about them.
