  • Bling Bell?

    My dad's birthday is approaching and he's requested a bell for his Brompton.. My challenge is now to find the nicest bell I can!

    Have seen this, but is there anything nicer out there?

    Cheers
    Ben

    My father in law has one of these

    I know it's not a bell, but the noise it makes is bloody hilarious! I didn't expect to find it funny but the tone and quality of the thing really is comedy 🙂

    Good luck Ben – I'm not sure how easy they are to get hold of. The Sogreni website may be quite old.

    But…

    in my experience a bell has to make the classic "bring-bring" noise, or people hear it but don't know what it is.

    I'd stay away from those "ping" ones if I were you.

    just my 2 pence worth,

    Edinburgh bike coop used to do sogreni.

    (hmm but don't seem to any more, tho you could go Ti in the sale: http://www.edinburghbicycle.com/ebwPNLqrymode.a4p?f%5FProductID=10869&f%5FFullProductVersion=1&f%5FSupersetQRY=C290&f%5FSortOrderID=1&f%5Fbct=c003154c003140c003573 )

    Cheers IA, that's what I'd found previously, but for more that £25. Just not sure if I like the design. I think this on eBay might get the nod over the MKS if I can't find a Sogreni dealer.

    Can't see the Redfish making production in time! Also, I think a bell needs to be mechanical personally.

    Looks like Kinetics have a Sogreni, albeit only the stainless steel one. Maybe give them a call?

    Cheers offthebrakes, have emailed them already. Fingers crossed!
