What’s the difference in a 1 Year Cyclepedia Subscription versus a Lifetime?
Cyclepedia is a service based company. We sell subscription terms that include tech support and access to information for the duration of the subscription – if you require limited tech support our 1 Year Subscription option would be the most logical choice, however if you plan on keeping your bike beyond one year, or you would like to have an online manual to sell with your bike, a Lifetime Subscription is the most economical choice. Our online manuals are web based applications that are frequently updated and include many interactive features that would not be available or would prove clunky to implement in a PDF. While you could print off all the topics from the manual with the 1 Year Subscription if this information becomes lost you can not retrieve it. With a lifetime subscription you get all the benefits of being a Cyclepedia member and your online manual would always be available to you, anytime, anywhere in the world.
I love my Cyclepedia manual, can I upgrade to a lifetime subscription?
Yes, we offer an upgrade product for most of our manuals. You can easily upgrade to a lifetime subscription at any time from your account management page. Once you a a Cyclepedia member sign into you account. You can login to your account at: https://www.cyclepedia.com/amember4/member/index
