I need a bell

**madscot13** · 08-28-2008, 08:32 PM

I don't think there is much stopping me from buying a bike bell and painting it myself. I could tap into my artistic side. I might have to tap deep.

You're so funny.
You can't use house paint, you know.

I just paid $162 for a saddle bag....

But I like the idea of painting it yourself!

I have an espresso cup bike bell. The built-in clamp doesn't fit my handle bars.

Time to take out the tools. Ah-oh!

how about nail polish?

If you coat it afterwards.
I guess.

It figures I couldn't get back online yesterday! Sorry Melissa, I guess I was late on getting back to you! I lasted this long without a bell...

OMG tho, I checked ebay before and they hardly had any! I like the skeleton bell and the one that looked like a sundae. The funny thing about the hamburger bell is I hardly eat meat. I have no idea what the fascination was with the hamburger bell.

So many bells so little time.

I saw this guy on the trails a few years ago and he had this little skeleton head on a spring that was around a bell, and as he rode it tinkled. We called him tinkerbell because he was a bit arrogant. I on the other hand, wanted to push him off the bike and steal his bell

Not sure if you would call it a bell. But it was cool because it let people know you were coming.

Here's my bell.

I want a cool looking bell but still feel dorky having one. I'm getting a bit tired of relying on my voice when I go round blind corners.

I don't want to attach the bell to my bike though. I'd rather have it on my helmet or wrist or something. A helmet bell, that sounds cool!

Sundial, where did you get yours?

**TahoeDirtGirl** · 08-31-2008, 04:39 PM

sundial, that's a very cool bell. I have to pace myself with the bell hunt. I could wind up with one for every day of the week for both my bikes!

I need to buy another bike...so I can buy more bells!!!

The coffee cup bell is so fun! I didn't see the hamburger bell when I opened the second link, though. Can I see? Please, oh please??

**bikerchic** · 09-01-2008, 11:18 AM

Oh man those are some cool bells!

Please let us know what you decided to get and where!

I don't have a bell but I had this "squeekie" cow on my old GT Outpost.....and we really don't have to talk about my cow fetish now do we, sigh.

**TahoeDirtGirl** · 09-01-2008, 02:54 PM

check the link out now....ohhhh I can't wait! and that cow...I should keep my eyes open for a horn. Buy the horn and the bike will appear??! Haha! So much for keeping the weight down on the commuter!
