Review on πŸ”” PDW Alexander Graham Bell - Steerer Tube Mountable Bicycle Bell by Justin Peck

Revainrating 4 out of 5

Warning: difficult to use for left-handers

Funny name, great bell sound that sounds good, smaller than most bells, attractive and really well made. ring, the bell is parallel to the ground when the bell is properly seated on the stem. For convenient press and release of this tab, the bell should be on the right side of the steering column. The left-hander would have to reach further and awkwardly bend their wrist to ring the bell. If, on the other hand, you mount it on the left, this bar either protrudes in front of the bell, you have to reach further and your hand grips the bar, otherwise the bell and bar are upside down. . Alternatively, you can turn it upside down so that the tongue is correctly pointing back towards the rider but under the bell. Then it would be awkward to pull the tongue up and allow the click or movement needed to produce a full sound. Left-handers who are stable riders, are coordinated, and are a little long-sleeved can still adjust comfortably. Portland must either produce two models, or ensure the bell is rotated on its mount before installation, or warn the buyer in advance. , a beautifully made gift, only to see that the recipient, left-handed, immediately recognizes the problem.

Pros
  • Easy to use
Cons
  • Modern
