Spurcycle

Bell

Interesting bell

Familiarity:

I've used it once or twice and have initial impressions

Has a long-lasting resonance, somewhat high-pitched, will get the attention you need. Finally figured out how to put it on. You need to unscrew the bell dome with a 3/32 allen wrench (NOT provided) and hook one of the two provided steel bands around the handlebar to the opposite side of the bell, reattach the bell dome and tighten it up. If you don’t want to cut your bar tape or mar your handlebars, add rubber shims.

It is about DHL, not the product

Every time DHL is involved the delivery is delaied! No updates are available othter than it left Utah!

Disappointing

Familiarity:

I've used it several times

Based on the description and the other reviews, I expected this bell to be much louder than it actually is. I have another, much less expensive bill on my other pipe that is louder than this one.

Best bike bell in town!

Bought the Spurcycle bell after reading up on some reviews. In short, it’s the best bike bell money can buy. Imitators can be bought at a fraction of the price, but the secret sauce of a real Spurcycle bell is that the bell itself is made from a brass alloy that creates a tone that is more clear and has a longer sustain than its competitors. The bell comes with mounting hardware for both diameters of handlebars (mountain bike and road bike round bars). There is a Youtube video which explains the installation process. Please watch it prior to installation. It is a little pricey but it can be had for 20% off as long as you wait for REI or Backcountry coupons, which are offered a few times a year.

Great sound that carries

Loud sound, it startles some bypassers, seems durable and hope it lasts

Great Bell! Support Local Companies

One Size Fits All

There's a knock-off (really a few knock-offs!) of the Spurcycle Bell on the market, but nothing beats the original! This has the fit, finish, and sound you'd expect from a great product. It's assembled by hand, in the USA, so make sure to support the real company that developed this bell, and not one of the cheaply-made copy cats.

Lovely bike bell

I've put it through the wringer

I've had this bell for several weeks and I'm very satified with it. The design and build are top-notch. It's perfect for alerting folks from behind that I'm approaching. It's pleasant tone and moderate volume level illicit smiles. The all-black version seamlessly blends with the look of my handlebar array and the small size is perfectly in scale. I highly recommend!

wonderful tone

A simple, beautifully crafted bell with a delightful tone! Able to transform an annoying alert to a pleasant experience.

loud and low profile

This is a great bell. It's loud enough that most people wearing headphones notice, and it's smaller than many other larger, quieter bells. It can be challenging to slot the attachment piece inside of the bell, but it's very secure once it's attached. I would recommend getting a thin rubber strip to go between the handle bar and the bell's metal attachment piece. It could scratch the handle bars, and for me, it can get dampened by the handle bar grips.

One the coolest new additions to my bike

I saw one of these at a local store and wanted to get a dark one with the green button. When it arrived I saw how well designed it was and when mounted it emits a very distinct sound that can be heard by the folks on the bike path who are normally oblivious to the outside world. Very well made and the fit and finish is superb. I now have 4 of these bells for various bikes and just love them. I took advantage of a limited time discount which made the bell even better. The nice thing about the sound is that when you are coming up behind someone, the distinct sound lets them know something is coming. I would highly recommend this product. thanks for keeping them in stock.
