    Pedelecs V2 upgrade

    Hi folks, At long last we are just about ready to update the site to the latest forum software along with some new features that it introduces. There will be some downtime while this happens, I'm not sure how long yet but I will probably do a complete upgrade on the test site again first...

    Advice needed on e-bike.

    I've added a Wiki to the new site which will be editable by the members. There will also be some other new features to assist people new to the pedelec scene. If anyone would like to be a Wiki editor let me know and I'll give you access to the test site so you can have a play around.

    LONDON Marathon successfully measured using an Agattu

    I do need to update our terms for the new site. But at the moment, basically you own the copyright but by posting on here you give us permission to use what you have written as well as modify it (although I would only do this if it would cause us problems legally). On the new site we will...

    LONDON Marathon successfully measured using an Agattu

    Yes, posts like these would make excellent articles for the main site. One of the new sites features is the ability to promote a forum topic to a main news article. 10mph - do you have any photos from the day?

    Forum tidy-up

    Don't think there is the functionality to see if a word can trigger a notification, it could be quite a strain on the server. I'll have a look to see if there are any forum mods though. As for threads or forums, there is 'Thread Tools' and 'Forum Tool's where you can subscribe to a thread/forum...

    Forum tidy-up

    Hi folks, The new site is just around the corner now and is just undergoing a few changes before going live. We have a number of 'forums' within Pedelecs and I am looking to tidy up them up a bit. Are you all happy with the ones that we have? Should I add or remove any? Should any be split...

    Sneak preview DaaHub

    Hi Leonard, Pedelecs is independent in such that members are free to post what they like in the forum. There are exceptions to this, for example if we feel that a post is potentially libellous. Sometimes we get asked to remove posts by advertisers but we very rarely do this. After all, if you...

    News: Electric bike searches leap 175 per cent as fuel cost rises worsen

    We saw a big spike for the 6 months after oil hit $150/barrel. Then it eased back a bit over winter, picking up steadily again during 2009/10. Winter months always sees less visitors but numbers have jumped dramatically the last month or so. It would be nice to see 175% increase in visitors...

    A pedelec wiki? Or have I crashed the German Pedelec Forum?

    Hi 10mph, Excellent find there! I like the integration with the new vBulletin we'll be using and it fits with what I have in mind for the site so I've purchased the Premium version. I'll get it set up, if you want to have a play around on a test site let me know.

    I found another vBulletin site running which has incorporated a wiki: Página principal - Under-Linux.Org Wiki We could implement something like this if the interest is there?

    Pedelecs on iPhone/Android

    Hi NRG, I am leaning towards vBulletin's app as this will integrate with the full site. The new site will include a new front-end with news, articles etc along with blogs. Also I think you have to pay for the Tapatalk app on the iPhone? Whereas the vB one is free. It's probably no hardship to...

    Pedelecs on iPhone/Android

    The Flyertalk app is probably running a beta so vBulletin can show what it looks it. If we adopt it, then there will be a dedicated Pedelecs app for iOS and Android. I'm leaning towards vBulletin at the moment. This is because the front-end of this site will be completely replaced as we...
