Buyer Guide

Classic bicycle bell
This is the well-known to everyone classic bicycle bell. It is based on a design that dates back to the 19 th century. Such a bell must be mounted on the bicycle bars for easy access. The main parts of it are brass or steel bell which strikes on a tab or ringer and produce the audible ringing sound. Some bells might be thumb-pushed by a lever, but others might be with a simple plastic tab on a flexible arm.

When you flick the tab with your thumb the striking surface hits the outer of the bell and produces the ringing sound. The mounting method might be different for the different models of classic bells, however in most cases they will have to fit on the bar. The more modern mounting method is to fix the bell for the bar with a plastic mount that offers easy attachment and adjustment.

Air horns
You can attach an air horn to your bicycle instead of a classic bell. The air horns use pressurized air to emit powerful sound which can go up to 120 decibels for some models. Keep in mind that such a powerful sound might not appeal to everyone, so use the air horn only when needed.
