pe3nguin Posted February 21, 2017 Posted February 21, 2017 its a bike bell dude I think the patent (and variant patents) on those ran about 150 years ago a bell is a bell is a bell anyone can make em Exactly. And for Rockbros to be counterfeiting, they would need to be attempting to defraud the consumer. This isn't the case, they have made a bell (imitation possibly), which lacks a vital requirement of counterfeiting...deception.
