No, we've not fallen out with anyone (at least I hope not!).

Since the beginning of May we have introduced a charge for advertising on the site as the costs to develop and run the site have increased dramatically. So those on a current advertising contract are appearing on the site plus we are in talks with others. There will be a limited number though and probably the only new area where adverts appear will be on the forthcoming newsletter. Hopefully you guys don't find the ads intrusive but we hope we have struck a balance by keeping ads to the top banner and to the right of the forum/site.

For me you can have as many as you like, it gives me links to follow, and as I have some people asking me about them, they can follow the links as well!

Glad to here that all is cool..

On the subject of contribution, it is nice to see Wisper taking such an active role as well on the forum. Always nice to speak directly to suppliers.

Thanks again!!

The wonderful thing about the Pedelec Forum is it works both ways. As a manufacturer it is absolutely invaluable to be able to talk directly to such knowledgeable people. I must admit that I am often shamed by the level of knowledge out there!

Without knowing what is expected, needed and wanted by the Pedelec community, building new bikes would be much more hit and miss. Designing, tooling, building and launching new bikes is horribly expensive. The Pedelecs forum takes out a lot of the guess work.

It is for the above reasons that we have decided to support the site through advertising.

Best regards David :)
