How to build a simple e-bike with SWYTCH kit

[@MartinGraham]

first time watching you, exactly what i needed to know as i want to convert my bike rather then buy another one, and love your style and pragmatism. hope you're fully recovered. martin

Thanks for the detail video & I like how you slowing explain everything without music & fake acting. I’m actually gonna try this with a trike bike for the front wheel setup work best. Good Luck with your career & I’m a subscriber now.

[@calebeckel6970]

I just came across this video and found it extremely helpful. I have just recently become aware of the presence and popularity of e-bikes and have become hooked. I look forward to learning more about building these amazing machines.

If you decide to build one you should get yourself an nta helmet like xnito or bern hudson, cpsc helmets don't protect you on ebikes

The best video I have watched yet on fitting a Swytch kit yet. Thanks very much from north east Scotland. I wish you a speedy recovery.

[@iGameOvertv]

A little tip for the grips that I got from GCN is: lift the end of the handlebar (one close to shifters) with a little screwdriver and squirt some water with dish soap. Then try twisting. Repeat underneath if needed. I can't stress enough how well this works, even on the very old bikes I was restoring where grips were truly stuck.

Hello: Sorry to hear about the health problems. I have enjoyed and learned a lot from all your videos. This caused me to purchase your 3 books over time. I value the GREAT job you do in explaining the many aspects of ebiking. Good luck and keep up the good work. I am looking forward to all the future KZbin and Ebike School videos. John L

[@alanpeterson8511]

I've been watching your channel over a year, finally bought 2 of your books and think the Swytch kit might be a good starter kit while building a 750 mid drive. Glad you're back on it.

[@linnieb6226]

Yes. I see this video was some years ago but pneumonia also kicked my butt. I was 3 days from death in a quarantined room, no windows, no nothing other than some scratchy sheets, bed tray, and medical devices. It's serious. And thanks for this channel. Glad you recovered well.

[@stuarthutchings3092]

The whole video was very detailed and exactly what I was looking for. Thank you.I think you are very clever with all the electronic gear that you assemble. Just carry on doing what you do best. Glad you got rid of the Pneumonia. There's a lot of it about these days!

[@unicornladytech]

I purchased a Swytch e-bike kit. I had to send for the missing charger dongle. I finally got it only to find that I'm now missing the throttle part. And now I see you got 4 or 5 battery covers. I received none. I'm glad to see that not everyone is have issues getting to finally ride their e-bike.

[@keithkellett9161]

Love your videos, and thanks for the review of Swytch. Happy to see the improvements to simplify to the DIY ebike conversions.

Pneumonia is a tough one to get over. Glad you are getting back into the groove. Keep up the good work, your videos are always informative and never seem biased which is rare. Your not a bad author either, got one of your books. Although I still almost burnt my house down spot welding a cell. Lesson learned 😀

My favorite part of this video is the tin trashcan chair. Brings back memories of when I was in college doing the same thing. :D

Thank you - purchased a swytch kit a a while back and this video helped me a lot while putting it together

[@robinfryer479]

Don’t leave parallel-connected batteries connected permanently. Inevitably you get a weak cell, which causes the strong battery to discharge itself into the weak one. The way to get around this i s to introduce a charge-bus, and discharge bus, and isolate each battery between a pair of diodes, for each one. I use this technique in my yacht, with 8 12-volt, lead-acid, batteries. Don’t forget to use Schottky Diodes, since there’s a potential 1.2 v drop across each diode, under high-current conditions. Cheers, Robin.

[@pitifullyobvious3036]

I can see a lot of e-bike riders ending up in hospital with power assist bikes when travelling at more than 25 MPH. THEN our lazy legislators WILL ban E-BIKES or KEEP current ridiculous speed limits. Politicians are too lazy to introduce sensible laws for e-bikes. E-bikes need a speed limit of about 40 to 45 MPH so they are able to keep in the flow of normal motorised traffic flow. ESPECIALLY ON HILLS where an e-biker limited power to 15 MPH, is going to be reduced to 5 MPH up hills IS going to be in a POTENTIONALLY DANGEROUS situation given the impatient, inconsiderate average motorist. Motorist are too stupid, too lazy or too fat to use e-bikes for local journeys. Politicians and most car drivers are too stupid to realise that the e-bikes WILL solve traffic congestion AND traffic pollution. THEY HATE CYLISTS ! EVEN THOUGH RIDING A BIKE IS UNCLUTERING THE ROADS AND PARKING SPACES. Imagine our cities where 90% of us are commuting across town by e-bike or e-biking to and from the train station. Trains can be easily adapted as necessary. Pollution levels and the gorgeous whether would return to the levels we all enjoyed during the Coronavirus lock down. Pitifully Obvious - unless you are a dumb politician. E-BIKE REGULATIONS NEED TO BE UPDATED. SCREEM, SHOUT and E-MAILS TO JOURNALIST - POLITICIANS AND MOTORIST. ( ie your mum and dad ) TOXINS from ever increasing motor vehicle use are poisoning us and our children. All of us are wasting thousands hours of valuable time in unproductive traffic congestion. The e-bike - tandem e-bikes - e bike trailers for the kids and shopping is our likely salvation ! E-bikes need regulations if they are to become the most popular form of commuter vehicle. Unfortunately Registration plates insurance and construction regulations for safety, similar to mop-heads will have to be adapted. Hub motors are too unstable at speeds above 30 MPH - Mid drive compulsory - Rim brakes wear out rapidly on faster e-bikes and are therefore dangerous - disc brakes should be compulsory for e-bikes - Compulsory -e-bike battery detachable to prevent theft and for recharging at work or destination with employers require by law to facilitate. Lockable anti-theft tracker system - compulsory. Speed limited by law to 45 MPH but with enough power to maintain that speed up most hills. Motorway lanes adapted and progressively widened to provide 45 MPH e-bike and e-recumbent bikes/trikes lanes where riders are three or four abreast from initially using only the emergency vehicle access lane. Truck lane 55 mph and car lanes 70 MPH. In Life the sensible are handicapped by the imbeciles. The most common accidents on motor bikes occurs when folks pull out in front of an approaching motor bike because the driver didn't see the motor bike which of course is bigger than an e-bike. I would strongly suggest fitting a LED head light which can be set higher in daylight preferably with a yellow cover to help the drivers see you approaching the junction. Bear in mind older drivers have poorer eyesight and much slower reactions. It's not much help being in the right if your dead. At night remove the coloured lens cover and lower the beam. We all need to scream at our idiot leaders in all countries to adjust legislation to make e-bikes more popular. The Laws in the UK are ridiculous. Most reasonably fit riders can easily exceed the 15 MPH limit without power assist but the same rider travelling above 15 MPH on a e-bike fitted with power assist EVEN if the power assist is not being engaged WILL BE BREAKING THE LAW. Failing to registrar the bike as a motor vehicle - no registration plate - no insurance - no motor vehicle lighting regulations - not wearing a full motor bike helmet etc................... Please copy and paste everywhere !

[@SunnyRain0614]

I am in the process of watching your video here, and I wanted to tell you thank you for your video. Honestly, you are very good at offering a low stress learning video. I definitely rate you at a 10. You should do this for a living! lol.. Just wanted to give you a "attaboy!" Thx again, Janine Davis

[@jeffj5039]

Nice mod! Looks like a center-lock brake rotor @ 3:13 - can be removed with a bottom bracket tool

[@MrDegsy69]

Jeff J the centrelock rotor is a shimano patent and requires a splined centrelock compatible hub to reuse it. He had to buy a new rotor as the motor hub utilises the standard 6 bolt rotor fixing method on the hub flange boss. What concerned me most were the tight clearances on the fork and the need for spacing shims to pack it out. Something was not ISO standard here and i suspect it was the suspension fork on the donor bike. It would have been less of problem with a rigid road fork as the fork blades would have been narrower.

[@robertsmart5600]

I put an early canbus BionX back wheel on a Hasa mountain bike. Motor controller and torque sensing was built into the 250W hub, so as soon as you applied force to the pedals the motor gave the required response. I now have a new Hasa mountain bike with a Tong Sheng DZ2 250W crank motor with controller and torque sensor built in. It took some filing to get the TSDZ2 to fit the Hasa frame, but it's a great bike. You don't get regeneration with a crank motor, but it's more efficient to coast as fast as possible down hills, but I do miss saving my disk pads and charging my battery when braking. Regeneration is also good for very steep descents on tarmac.

[@americanescu]

Question -- I'm 6ft and weighing about 230 lbs. I'm thinking of getting into e-biking. I work in a hospital and I commute daily almost about 7-8 miles each way. What power motor do you think would suit me the best?

[@scottmcintosh8136]

I built a class 4 ebike about 8 months ago. That means I have no PAS system. I do 30mph with ease. I can go well over 30 under the right conditions. Keep in mind, just because I can go that fast doesn’t mean I always do. I have and do push the limits of my bike often, that does mean I take mountain gravel roads and trails that dirt bikes are on. I also have had multiple problems come up and had to learn a ton about every component involved. Ive had to find answers to problems even the experts that sell and work on the expensive ebikes don’t know the answer to. I’ve had to learn the hard way, many times those same people have been completely wrong. It seems they always advise the most expensive way to find and fix the problem first, even if they aren’t going to be making any money out of it. At this point the only original parts from when i began this journey are my battery and my motor. I began watching this video to see if there was one component missed, and there is. Not long into the video you see him put the disk break directly onto the motor hub. I did the same as it seems no one has taken into consideration one result of this. When you’re going down a steep hill or slowing down from higher speeds that disk break is going to get hot. Extremely hot. In turn that disk break is going to make your motor hub hot too. And as you work the motor going up it stays hot and back and fourth. This heat, I now believe can travel from that disk break, make the motor hotter than it would be, and follow the power lines, all of them, back to the controller, and even into the throttle. There is a plastic connector for the 5/6 wire connection of the hall connection and such. I’ve melted that twice. I had melted it the first time and had a ebike shop fix it for me. They told me I had been taxing the battery too much going up hill. Unknown to me they replaced it with the same part than wrapped it in a bike inner tube and made it look like it had been heat shrunken. I was pretty mad when it melted again. There’s more to that but I digress. I fixed that by hard wiring that connection and insulating it. No plastic to melt. I rode very hard on some mountain passes yesterday. My throttle went out for the second time, but I wasn’t aware of it until this morning. I took both thumb throttles apart. The wires were broken in the same spot in both. Either the wires are arcing. Or my theory about heat building up through the wires as a result of the disk break getting hot. Or. As a 3rd very real possibility, the parts are just made cheep. I did some research and found that the throttle I payed $37 for 2 times. Is sold on the web for $7. Just sold under a different name. I have what that store called a beefier throttle now, and my bike is running, they gave me this throttle for free. I’m not hopeful it will last and plan to replace it. My plan is to go to a scooter or motorcycle shop and find a heat gasket to put in between the motor and the disk break. No idea if it will help. But I hope so. Let me know what you think or if you have any ideas. Thanks in advance. 26” 1000w 48a rear hub motor

Hi. Thanks very much for putting this video together. I'd like to ask for a shot of the power cable exiting the wheel hub and the angle of it before you strapped it to the front forks. My cable is facing down when the bike is right side up, and it seems a strain on the cable at its exit point to turn it upwards in order to tie it to the forks.

Thank you.

[@Baywalker5017]

You didn’t mention how the bike felt coming off the power and braking....you hadn’t fitted the brake sensors. The kit looks interesting but as others have mentioned on here, just what is the price? Swytch seem to want me to preorder and get a 50% discount for doing so, which is great but there’s no way I’m committing myself to an unknown cost!

[@will4may175]

Yup, and a year later the website still says the same, and still no clue of the price, however I seen this same kit on Fully charged show and it's £1000, adjust to whatever currency you use, but WAY too expensive considering you can get a generic E-bike for half that.

The disc is a center lock, you would need a Shimano BB tool to remove it (Some use cassette tool instead would have splines on the inside rather than outside) The silver bit that says Shimano on it is essentially a nut holding it on The rivets attach the disc to the holder, Can make it lighter and quieter. Not that there is anything wrong with 6 bolt but tend to find it on slightly older or budget bikes

They do a good job at keeping birds poo off of your jeans when you where unlucky enough and parked under a tree that would become a favored place to rest for birds on their way to warmer regions. If you didn't recognise it you seem to be lucky enough and only live in sunny areas ;). i envy that

@@girlsdrinkfeck completely agreed

Ahhh, thanks! Haha I took a shot in the dark at what those were. I got rain cover correct, but just for the wrong part of the bike :-)

Glad to see you're back on your feet.

Hi Micah, just came across your site and as I have converted a couple of bikes/trikes I thought I would compare. The kite I bought were both front wheel kits from EBay and I liked the Swytch kit due to its size. The kits I bought

[@philneale323]

Required a separate battery which I chose 12aH. How much was the Swytch kit. The EBay kit was £120.00 plus £130 for the battery. Look forward to watching your other stuff.

Glad to see you after long time.... Thanks for the video.

Glad you are back healthy

Hey great video. My Swytch kit has finally landed in the UK. Had to pay extra £92 in taxes though, so hopefully should be with me in next few weeks. Patience is a virtue these days..... BTW, sorry to hear about your illness. Could it have been an early variant COVID you contracted? The timing is not too far out.

In the Uk would love one for a ladies road bike. Could you give us a rough idea of price as I’ve never ordered anything unknown before. Thanks
