Thanks to Mimitabby and her Seattle links, I saw a post regarding an air horn designed for bicycle use. I believe it is manufactored by Delta and the model is Zound. It is supposedly comparable to truck horns. The commuter Goddess Newfsmith, mentioned in an older post that she had some problems with the schrader valve malfunctioning.
I did a search on here and apparently they can be a tad harsh on one's own ears, but I'm wondering if they still might be a good resource for bike commuters--especially during the other three seasons.
I don't know if all have the feature, but supposedly you can turn a volume dial. Now that I've made a short story long, I was wondering if anyone can weigh in on these. They look pretty light weight. They're obviously not for casual use but if they can maybe save one from an accident????
After reading some of the venomous comments towards cyclists :eek: sharing the road with cars, I feel like some defense might be in order.
Anyone have recommendations for this or other similar noise makers? Thanks!
