Spurcycle’s elegant (and long lasting) bell

If you ride busy trails, having a bell on your bars is all but a must. Far better to warn unsuspecting hikers or slower riders of your approach with a subtle “ding” than to yell, whistle, or just buzz past.
One of our favorite noise makers is the Spurcycle bell, which was also among the most popular booths at this year’s North American Handmade Bike Show in Sacramento, California. That was no surprise, considering that in a convention center full of hand crafted bike aficionados, Spurcycle was hand assembling these elegant bells right there on the show floor.
The company was started by a pair of San Francisco engineers who wanted to create a better bell. The result is both great looking and easy on the ears. Have a listen for yourself.
