Questions & Answers
It's designed to work with bars that are 22mm in diameter. My age is 26 years old. It's 0mm, and it's not going to fit.
Yes, my bike is 26 inches long, and I believe this bike bell is designed for adults.br>
We have one on each of our four bikes, so yes, you can. They're fantastic. Both in terms of sound and visibility, these are attention getters! It's also simple to mount
When the bell is upright, the flipper faces to the left, so I use it on the left side.
Selected User Reviews For ZDS Karcle Retro Copper Bike Bells Super Loud Bike Bells
This is both visually appealing and functionally sound. It's the ideal complement to my bicycle!.
I was so impressed after installing it that I ordered a black one for another bike; they both sound great, appear to be sturdy, and were simple to install. I bought a different bell from a different manufacturer a few months ago. It's a good bell, but the screw wouldn't catch (it was stripped), so I had to use zip ties to attach it. br>br>A couple of things to keep in mind: It does, however, necessitate the use of a small Allen wrench, as other reviewers have noted. Because I didn't have one small enough, I dashed to Harbor Freight and purchased a 36-piece set for $8. I'm not a handyman, but I'm glad I have this set. br>br>I didn't notice any tonal differences between the gold and black bells. Both are loud, have a good amount of sustain, and have a similar pitch. br>br>This bell is ideal for alerting others that you're passing to the left-hand side. Alternatively, on a game show, to inform a contestant of the correct answer. Of course, only time will tell if the bell will hold up over time. However, my initial impressions are 100% favorable, and I would strongly recommend this bell.
Without a signal, you should not ride in traffic or on bike paths. This bell has a sleek appearance, and the sound cuts through and carries well. But not in the way that a horn or whistle would be. It simply warns pedestrians and drivers to put their phones down and focus. This has the potential to save someone's life, and it has a pleasant tone to it.
Every day, I go for a ride on a popular walking/running/cycling trail. When a faster cyclist passes me without warning and catches me off guard, I find it startling and dangerous. Similarly, it can be dangerous for me to pass by walkers or other cyclists if they are unaware that I am approaching. Especially when walkers are talking on their phones or chatting on their phones. I like to make sure that everyone on the trail is aware of my location for safety reasons. Other bells that make smaller sounds, like dinky/plinky, have been in my possession. When I pass someone who is wearing one of these, they frequently look down at the ground behind them as if they have dropped something, and they frequently laugh when they realize they have been misled and that the sound was caused by my bell. The ring tone of this bell is purer and lasts longer. I can ring it from a greater distance, allowing me to be heard sooner, and then ring it again if the walker does not appear to hear me (or pay attention); As the tone fades, I often imagine the walker being able to detect my passing movement. For me, it's a good fit. I'd be even more pleased if it were a tad louder.
Ring that is loud, long, and has a low pitch. Unless they are wearing earphones, people can easily hear this on bike paths. It's well-made and dependable. It's mounted on the handlebars of a recumbent trike, below my waist and hidden from view. The striker is large, and I can easily feel it activate by reaching down. So many bells have failed me, either because they couldn't be heard or because they self-destructed after a few months. This is something I'll buy again for other bicycles.
It's loud, it's strong, and it's a lot of fun to play with. Is it true that I said it out loud? It's not only loud, but it also continues to ring for about five seconds, giving people in front of you a Doppler effect, if you're familiar with the term. Something is coming at them, they can feel it in their bones. When you're on a bike, speeding towards an oblivious human, this is extremely useful. br>br>I've been using it for a few months and it's rock solid. I ring a lot. Los Angeles is where I call home. I purchased two: one for my Trek FX city bike and the other for my firmstrong urban beach cruiser.
I suppose it sounds like a regular hotel bell. However, it saves me from having to yell at people as I approach them, and the sound travels a long distance. One annoyance is that the trigger can rotate all the way around, which means that while riding one-wheeled vehicles, the trigger can sometimes spin all the way around. I'll have to try a few times if it slips sideways while I'm fiddling with it.
Every measurement in the description was incorrect, including height, diameter, and, most importantly, the maximum opening of 25mm, which prevented me from mounting it to my bike (the photo shows 23). The widest is 6 mm, and the instructions say to install it with a screwdriver, but it actually requires a hex key (which is also shown in the photo). It has a low rating due to the poor description, but it does have a good, loud ringing sound if it fits your bike.
