The answer is in the FAQ:

We of the mod team try to support him a little, but most of the work is on Florians shoulders, who maintains the website and the BB. All of us do this in our spare time, as we all still have to work for a living. So we can't always be as fast as we'd like to.

I think the quality of data presented on this site is well worth a wait.
So we have to ask for your patience!

Hey Martin, and other moderators.

I apreciate this site very much, but like Peda, I don't see why it takes so long for our bikes to be submitted.

I have submitted 3 bikes over the last 18 months, not one has been added to the gallery.

Not being rude here, but is it really that time consuming to add bikes to the gallery?

Again, I am greatfull of this site, and am not bad mouthing it, but just in wonder.

Thanks for everything, WW rocks, keep it up. :up:

You know if you want a hand with it, I am more then happy to help.

I could do it without a problem. I use to be a web developer in Php and MySQL and thats what this site is written.

Its the least I can do to help out.

@ superlight: right!!

the work of the moderaters and tho hole forum is fantastic... but nothing is perfect.

all weigt weenies are proud for their bikes (me too). so i would be very lucky if i could see my bikes in the ranking... my mtb wold be the 4. lightest and my road bike would be under the top ten...

There is a thread for those of you who can't wait to see their bikes listed.
It is called "what do you ride?" and is made sticky in both the road and mtb forum...

yes, thats right... but it is no ranking and after a few weeks nobody looks at the bikes....

in a ranking everyone could see bikes ordered by the weight. i do this too: i look at bikes about 6kg (road) and 7,5-8kg (mtb) to compare with my bikes...
