Would it be considered rude...

[wesley_r]

...to mount a bell to your handlebars, for use in a race instead of shouting "track" or "passing on the right"?

 

[divernick]

I don't think so - do it....

[BLACKvoodoo]

a fog horn rather

[Danger Dassie]

Not at all, in MBP has pig that makes oinking sounds... true story

[The Guy in Pink]

I use this air horn. (From CRC)

It is most effective for clearing the path.

115decibels of fun!

That one Yes. Do you have the matching blue b@lls behind your saddle to complete the set???

Wes is a CT boy .. not one of you pnik jersey toting bulls boys/girls

[The Ghost]

Somebody rang their bell at me in the race the other day, I guessed it was normal practice.

[Smolly]

I like it when other riders shout "trek", its almost the same as wearing a "power balance band"

Aah OK all is forgiven...

['Dale]

I think it's cool and helpful...

 

Cool Blue Bull bell.

*stir on

 

Just be careful of those pump weilding congestion types! Doubt they like any form of notification that someone faster intends coming by....

 

*stir off

[wesley_r]

ok, this one then

[Ysterperd]

Have fitted one myself. Helps a lot on the road/trial and even races to help clear the wY ☺

Those bells are cute, bought one for my 6 yr old niece.

a bell won't have the right effect.you'll scare riders,sneaking up on them, and the opposite will happen instead of giving way, they'll swerve and end up right in front of you. All that's needed is a friendly call.
