This bell is so useful when riding on our trail systems. The matte black option blends in perfectly worn my bike. Hardly even notice it there!

Small bell that does not take up a lot of space on the handlebars. Not the loudest but it does the job. The cutout for cables is a nice feature but can be a little difficult with cross levers on smaller bars.

Good loud bell, low profile, long sustain.
Review by EG Rider
I need a bell occassionally on the bike trail as a friendly warning to other riders and hikers. I didn't want something large and ugly on my highend road bike nor something too loud. I really like design of this bell both mechanically and aesthetically. If you didn't know better you would not even know I had a bell on my bars.

Its a very cool slim design. But fails to be heard on the Golden Gate Bridge. Loud surrounding noise washes out the bell. Otherwise on the walk ways. Its pleasant

Very disappointed in the quality and design. I installed it and loved the fact that it was very low profile and unobtrusive. On my first ride I flicked it with my thumb a few times and quickly noticed that the spring distorted to the point of not striking the bell. I tried a few more times and then the striker snapped off leaving only the spring. I pulled on the spring a bit and it fell off while I was riding. Went back to my Incredibell... its years old and still works, just not as cool looking.

This bell is a great concept and for the most part I think it's a great bell. It's unobtrusive and fits great. The only problem is the bell tone seems to be hard for others to hear. Maybe it's not loud enough, or maybe the spring is a little light. All I know is that people don't seem to respond until I'm close enough to give them a verbal warning which kind of defeats the purpose. Great concept, but needs a bit of refinement.
Review by Rylab
This bell looks great, and is machined extremely precisely and finished exceptionally, but none of that is the point of a bell. The point of a bell is to be heard, and this is far, far too quiet to be useful. Switching back to the classic Crane bell larger and heavier, and not elegant looking, but with a loud and beautiful tone.

Bought the bell for a new bike I have on order, but it has somehow found a place on my current bike, may have to order a second one....lol Seems well made and has a loud clear tone.
Review by badrabbit
the bell is not intrusive enough to even notify someone you are passing. Its not very robust either.
Its pretty and will scare mice etc. I put an old one back on.

I like the simplicity and the looks of this bell. With all the handle bar tap and cables there is virtually no where to put the bell. Maybe it will work in another Bike.

Easy install and nice tone. Looks great too!

A nice look, the black one is almost invisible on my black bars and tape. Not as loud as the bigger bells, but loud enough to be heard on quiet streets. I'm happy with it, but if you ride in, and want to be heard above traffic then I don't think this bell is the best choice.

It looks cool, low profile but the spring is flimsy, It doesn't always ring properly.

Perhaps the most attractive bike bell available, but it is too quiet to alert anyone of your presence. And in a very little time the thumb ringer twists off and stops working.

Surprisingly expensive for surprisingly little sound.

The Oi is the the bell you want if you're looking for something small and lightweight to throw on your mountain bike or your cross bike. I wish it were just a touch louder.

I have this on my road ride and it is invaluable when cruising through town or on the bike path. Also love the look and feel. I've bought these for friends as gifts as well. If only it could penetrate earbuds!
