Nice loud chime but be careful with the clip

This is a good chime, it makes a very clear 'chime' that anyone will recognize when a bike approaches. It can be heard up to 50 meters away. I had one caveat, and now when I tell you this won't be a problem for you, it's that it barely fits on my Diamondback bike's handlebars because they aren't thick. . I'm only mentioning the brand of my bike because it's a regular, mass-produced bike made in China and probably many of you have one. If you look at the bell clamp you will see that it has two slots for hooking on the other part of the clamp and a threaded hole for tightening on the other end. Use the slot that is farthest from the end, then insert the screw and it will be tight and tight on the handlebar. Instead, I used the end slot and turned the screw all the way in, but the torch was still loose. I then took it off and used a different slot, but I bent the end of the bracket with the screw hole a bit so the screw is now misaligned and crossing the threads. I took care of this by wrapping some tape around the handlebars and going back to the outermost slot and now it fits snugly. So maybe I shouldn't call it a quibble, it was my fault, but there are no instructions on how to set up a call other than what I just told you. Overall a good call and probably what you want.

Pros
  • Handy part
Cons
