Yes, it's true! Pete here at the Recyclery developed a program in Access that (I believe) he is willing to share with interested parties.

It can do the following: -log bikes: serial numbers, sizes, descriptions -keep track of repairs/new parts added -print sale and donation reports -maintain a list of clients waiting for bikes and their contact info -provides a searchable catalogue of our large inventory (kept at another space)...for example, I can look for a 20" mountain bike if that's what we need and know if it's there, here, or non-existent -more I am forgetting!

Interested parties should email Pete at info@therecyclery.org.

And I also heard tell of a bike inventory program developed by someone from the Recyclery in Chicago? Anyone able to confirm or deny? Would love to have a look at it if it's readily available.

a few people brought up 'Freehub' database application (i believe developed at the bike kitchen?) in various contexts at BikeBike. Does anyone know how to get any more info on it?

Is it free? does it require a dedicated server? is it modular? is it web-based? what is it useful for?
