    Combination bike horn and light

    I'm not ready to plunk down $65 for this product, but a dual-tone horn would be really useful for urban riding. The unfamiliar sound might confuse people, which might not be helpful. But at least they'd notice me.

    Nice find, if I rode on urban streets I'd consider putting one on my wishlist; I like the dual tone option.

    Oh HAIL yeah. I'm still seriously considering one of those pump-up air horns for exactly that purpose. Except I doubt they would notice that either, and then I'd just be $30 down the hole.

    How is that horrible? That's what would motivate me to spend the money

    If I bought this horn, I'd have to buy a GoPro too. Because there would surely be some, um, interesting reactions. Then I'd want video editing software -- it would end up being a pricey horn. But oh what fun....

    Now ladies!!! you know how much we hate it when a car sneaks up behind us and blasts their horn. (although I totally get the oblivious people on the MUP)
