Bike Horns (and Why They’re Better Than Bells) 3 Best Bike Horns (and Why They’re Better Than Bells)

Electric Bells fit for most handlebar, like scooter, balance bike, children’s bike, mountain bike, adult bicycle etc. The Striker, however, is integrated into a stem cap (headset cap) mount which simply replaces your current 1 1/8" stem cap.The bell's top selling feature, however, has got to be the loud, clear and long-lasting ring only solid brass can produce.

The bell consists of a solid brass dome, a large stainless steel striker and an 10mm wide extruded alloy attachment ring.

At 30mm x 20.5mm, the dome is actually quite small for such a loud ring. And while there's no real performance benefit to it, many users —myself included— will mount the bell facing forward rather than up. This is mostly for aesthetics but it also makes hitting the striker easier perhaps. Inside the hollow bell, however, you'll find a retractable clapper that's released when you pull down on the dome. In cowbell mode, the bell is motion activated and will ding going over any bump to make your presence known when you're riding on trails, busy multi-use paths or in areas with a lot of wildlife. The major difference between bike horns and bells is volume. Bike horns are substantially louder than bike bells. That makes them a better choice for busy roads or the daily commute, especially if you’re surrounded by traffic.

Similar to the Alexander Graham bell mentioned above, the Incredibell Striker bell keep your handlebar space free of clutter and sits vertically along the steerer tube. The stakes are high. Let’s stop to consider the perception and use of motor horns. What does their use tell us about them as a necessity or warning, or intimidatory tool? What percentage of their use is as a legitimate warning to other road users of a driver’s presence, or to move others along, or highlight the necessity of reminding other road users of the right to share asphalt or even own that particular part of the road. Of course, the fixed attachment also means that you won't be transferring this bell between bikes, but it looks best on a steel roadie or city bike anyway.
