If you check the small print you will have 'Invested' in the project with no guarantees or security, the perk of the 'Investment' was a cheap kit, the crowd -funder has taken your money - taken their excellent commission with added fees and will point out to you that its a risky business whilst continuing to promote numerous other dubious products with no care as to the eventual outcome, all totally outside any UK financial regulation. You quote ' if its too good to be true............ I think the crowd funder quotes ' There's one born every minute '

EBC at Datchworth have stopped selling these motors due to the many problems incurred with them, they do have quite a few unsold units, warranty returns and spares though, They are always help full, drop them an email I would imagine they will be monitoring mails over the closed period.

Have you or are you being asked to pay in advance for the Swytch kit ??

7000 miles - that cant be bad, a great advert and testimony please Call EBC on Monday they will send you a new one FOC

It should be noted that Oliver of Panda Bikes was always quick to jump on this forum when there was potential benefit for him, A search of Company House reveals he is the sole Director of Swytch Technology who are advertising on this forum seeking forward orders for a soon to be announced conversion kit, perhaps be a bit careful on that one as well !!!

Electric Bike Conversions have many of these units in stock but will not sell them anymore due to numerous problems encountered.

Electricbike conversions in Hertfordshire will lace their 250 watt kit into any supplied rim, 24 hour turnaround.

I would get the supplier to send you a new controller and the loom from Controller to the motor, one of these is obviously defective. Let us know how you get on as my experience with overseas sellers and warrant issues has not been good.

My local dealer has some zoom Hydraulic Levers and calipers that had cut out switches built in - really neat fully assembled and ready to fit £110 per pair which I did not think was too bad

Electricbike Conversions in Hertfordshire stock these

Its now near impossible to legally airfreight lithium batteries so only those suppliers with deep pockets can afford to buy container quantities and wait the five- six weeks for shipping

Electricbike Conversions do a powerful 250watt Mid drive kit with Torq sensing PAS,no throttle or brake levers needed , sensible price with warranty and very good aftersales, i have fitted one to my wifes bike and have been ultra pleased. www.electricbikeconversions.co.uk

I noticed a website for a company on my doorstep selling conversion kits and converted Bikes, I took a quick visit today, these guys are serious operators, obviously having other Business interests, they were loading a truck with 200 converted bikes for a Polish Customer, in talking to them they have not advertised in the UK but they are now preparing to trade in the UK - big time I think..I got offered a job !!!! Converting bikes is not for me but if anybody fancies it you could contact them electricbike-conversions.com
