Swytch conversion kit
Posted by gobears7477@reddit | ebikes | View on Reddit | 6 comments
Hello! Has anyone with a thru axle bike purchased a Swytch conversion kit, and any modifications to convert the thru axle to a quick release? I love my current bike (REI city bike hybrid, and like the idea of a simple conversion, but am unsure of the modification to the thru axle.

FWIW Swytch have developed a rear hub version that fits 142x12 thru axles... will be available from January 2025 apparently

haven't see this yet. Have you seen any other details on this since this post? I have a support email from them telling me they have them but I can't find any other information on it

Oh, nice bump!
I'd forgotten about this - despite getting several emails from Swytch about the latest run of front wheel modules.
I'll dig around as I'm still interested myself... though I have a 148 rear wheel...

Original article (I think): https://www.swytchbike.com/press/swytch-max-e-bike-conversion-kit-brings-a-rear-hub-motor-option/
It's the MAX+ version

Ok, you have to go to the MAX section of their website then scroll down until you get to a section that says "Now available for rear wheels" https://www.swytchbike.com/ebike-conversion-kit/#!/selection//max

Oh yes perfect, completely missed it. They sure don't like them hiding it like that.
