Description of 🚲 Japanese-Made Crane Bike Bell with Karen Bicycle Bell Steel Clamp – Ideal for City Bikes, Cruisers, Road Bikes, or MTB – Fits Handlebar Diameters 22.2 to 26.0mm

KAREN NEO-BLACK BELL, STEEL CLAMP: Retro, vintage premium bicycle bell with coil spring striker. Fits 22.2-26.0mm OD bars. The NE0-BLACK model has a 50mm wide brass dome with a black chrome (transparent black) finish. BEAUTIFUL, RESONANT SOUND: Brass or aluminum alloy dome-shaped bell for a bright and pleasant ring. The ring of a brass bell resonates longer vs other materials. Crane Bell knows the pleasantness of the ring should come second to safety and loudness, but we choose to make BOTH a priority. PREMIUM JAPANESE BELL: Crane Bell Co. Ltd is bringing beautiful Japanese craftsmanship to your bike! We didn’t compromise quality on any part of this bell. Our bicycle bells are truly unique and for bikers who care about the little things. BEAUTIFUL VINTAGE DESIGN: Looks elegant and smart on city bikes and traditional road bikes. Metal construction is much more durable than bells with plastic mounts and hammers. Smaller, more aesthetically pleasing to the ears than a bike horn. EASY INSTALLATION FOR MOST HANDLEBARS: Installs with a Phillips screwdriver. The Karen’s steel band mount fit diameters from 22.2mm to 26.0.mm.

I wanted them to please but flat tuned

I've seen Crane Bells in stores and they sound great. I may have a double row bell, but mine is as flat as a 2 o'clock karaoke singer. (sad trumpet)

Pros
  • Comfortable to use
Cons
  • Clean

Perfect for the daily cruiser

This appeal is made to last. It's simple, easily customizable and loud. If I had a vintage or custom beach cruiser, one of the best touches would be the look and sound of this brass beauty. As much as I need the bell for commuting, it doesn't fit fast, rough roads/hybrids. passengers. Every little bump on my bike rings a bell. Although this call doesn't apply to my bike right now, I'll keep it on another bike for a while later.

Pros
  • Great for me
Cons
  • unreliable

Great sound but different qualities. (Photo)

Nice bell with an excellent clear sound. I had to ask for a replacement as the striker felt 1 week after purchase. The replacement came promptly at no additional cost. And I discovered 2 things.1. The second call sounded much better than the first.2. The second bell spring is also thinner and softer in action. I have to say that the first call was a bit disappointing. I heard this call at a bike shop and the sound was different. Everything changed when I got a replacement, so my advice is to…

Pros
  • Few competitors
Cons
  • Not the best

Good call, except for the rain

This aluminum crane bell is mounted vertically on my racing bike stem. This works well for letting pedestrians know I'm approaching or just saying hello to other cyclists. It has a satin finish that I couldn't make shine with polishes. Excellent. A note: the bell will not swing when wet. If the bell is completely wet, the firing pin will make a thud when moving in the rain, but the ring will not hold. I'm not sure if this applies to brass or steel bells of similar construction. In general I…

Pros
  • Everything is fine!
Cons
  • Dear

Mixed review Suitable for cycling

So I'm torn on how to write a review for a product I've purchased. The star rating system is deceptive in my experience with Cyclone Bicycle. Here's the thing: (1) The delivery was delayed, not just once, but at least twice. At least in this case, Revain Prime didn't bring much benefit, since the supplier couldn't deliver the product in the originally planned timeframe. I understand they may not be able to control availability from their source. However, this is so. And instead of being…

Pros
  • Absolutely amazing!
Cons
  • Not bad, but...
