August 19, 200718 yr I googled electric bikes and if it's any help it did not take long to find this site, although with the jargon fresh in my mind from researching my purchase, I did half wonder whether I was a true pedelec or an e-biker and so am glad that neither I nor google were that prissy in practice
August 24, 200718 yr I searched for Lafree Twist Battery and this was the first really relevant site that came up. Not only that but I submitted a question, which was answered almost instantly bu flecc who immediately but me on the right track to solve my problem.
August 26, 200718 yr A very useful site I found this site through looking for "shimano hub gears" with google. It was on the 3rd page (I think?) in trawling through the many pages offered. You may be interesed to know I don't use Microsoft or Mac as my OS, I use Linux (openSUSE 10.2) & it works on Konqueror,SeaMonkey,Opera & Firefox, just at the moment Iam using Opera. derrick7
August 29, 200718 yr finding the site I was searching with Google for the price of D sized NimH cells and came across the forums on about the third page. As a Ezee Cadence owner, I joined immediately. Previously had one of the first Powabykes with no gears, so quite a step up Tony

In fact some people have found us through the most peculiar terms, when I get a moment I'll publish a top ten list of the most popular and most obscure!
October 17, 200718 yr I googled "schwinn electric indefinitely delayed" which returned a post in your forum at the top of the results. I'm one of the poor souls that put a $500 deposit down 6 months ago to order a Schwinn Campus Cruiser Electric...got my deposit back and I'm researching which bike to go with now.
October 22, 200718 yr New member - how did I find out about the site Hi, I found out about the site by "googling" electric bike reviews. I also found 50cycles at the same time. I have found the Q&A threads very useful and used these, with other bike reviews, to chose my new purchaee, an Ezee Forza. It would not be an exagguration to say that this site gave me the information I needed to make ny choice. Conal
November 26, 200718 yr Googling for 10K NTC Thermistor Beta 3950 or something this morning brought me here - and I got answers to my question already, and the batterypack is charging right behind me. Great resource! Cheers, Torben
January 18, 200818 yr pedelecs - s = pedelec i have been searching for long time for a pedelec forum and didnt find you. maybe i was typing in google "pedelec forum" and not pedelecs forum. so maybe you could do so that someone searching with "pedelec" and not "pedelecs" find the forum
April 21, 200818 yr Bad layout and no links The site is ok apart from there being no links to the forum from forum posts.! You keep having to look for the home link and start all over ever time you want to look at the forums:mad:
April 21, 200818 yr The site is ok apart from there being no links to the forum from forum posts.! You keep having to look for the home link and start all over ever time you want to look at the forums:mad: There are indeed links at the top of each page of posts - including this one - just to the left of your 'welcome' message. Cheers, Django
May 3, 200817 yr Found it That would be Google. I was looking for info and a more sensible price on a second "SP1" charger and the elusive "panasonic" plug just after buying my bike. Cheers, Mark.
May 21, 200817 yr Found the site via a link on a Motorhome site, a lot of talk about electric bikes going on there. Carol,
June 15, 200817 yr Hi Just joined the site. Found you by typing 'Pedelecs' into google. You came up first! I have ridden a Powabyke Euro for several years; now own a Wisper Works 905se (modified a little to suit). Does the job nicely for me @ present. Cheers, Phil
June 15, 200817 yr Hi Phil, welcome to the forum. Most new members these days are just venturing into e-bikes and it's unusual to have a very experienced user joining. You're joining quite a number of satisfied 905se owners in here, and Wisper's David Miall and Dick Lai are regular contributors. .
June 16, 200817 yr Hi, I would like to optimise the site for google so future users can find us and i'm very interested to hear how you found the site. If you used a search engine such as Google, could you tell me what Keywords you used and how many Search Result pages you clicked through before you found it? Thanks Russ.Like most dummy old users I googled for e-bikes, and voilá, you just turned up! Well, several times under different entries. I thought: they must be good. And I guessed right.
