A lightweight, ultra-compact conversion in the style of the popular Swytch system, designed for commuters and folding-bike owners who want a discreet, easily removable e-bike upgrade. A slim 250W 36V front hub motor pairs with a small handlebar-mounted battery pack that clips on and off in seconds, so you can carry it indoors to charge and leave the bike outside. Pedal-assist only with no hand throttle keeps it road-legal in the UK (EAPC) – ride on public roads and cycle paths with no licence, tax or insurance. The kit includes the front motor wheel, removable Power Pack battery, magnetic PAS disc, brake sensors and quick-connect handlebar mount. Ideal for Brompton-style folders and city hybrids; select your wheel size at order.
