Favorite bell
I use this on several bikes. It works well, not loudly or obnoxiously, but continuously when in that mode. Helps to alert people walking on campus or hiking on trails. Love the design. Push it up for quiet and manual operation. Great bell! Highly recommended!

Nice tone
It is a great dual action bell for those that appreciate the constant "dingle-ling" and those needing a single ding. Its great for crowded trails or out in the wilderness alone. Easy use, quickly installs and has a nice tone.

Essential for encounters (with both people and bears)
I don't normally review items, but after a year of use I wanted to share the following.Running some sort of "timber bell" is essential when mountain biking. I should have picked one up years ago. It has saved me so much frustration when riding on mixed trails where you may encounter hikers. No more yelling, or being accused of sneaking up on people.It also saved my butt recently when I skidded to a stop 15' from two large bears. The bell alerted them as I approached and they peaceful ran off.The bell isn't super loud. However, it seems to work well and does not feel annoying to use.After a year of use, the spring did break. This means no more manual dinging, but it still works as a timber bell.

Great concept, but far too quiet.
I got this after my Timber broke in a crash. I love the idea of a cowbell with the added ability to manually strike it. But this bell is just too quiet. I've got a replacement Timber on the way.

Nice bell. Lacks gravitas.
The handlebar clamp on this bell is about the best I have ever used. The shim system is very effective. The bell is sturdy and well built. The bell housing pulls in and out to silence the cow bell feature for quiet rides.But, calling it a cow bell is very misleading. Cat bell might even be an exaggeration.I hate hollering "On your left!". I either shout too early for people to hear, or too late and startle them anyway. This bell seemed like the best idea ever. Unfortunately, no one hears me coming, not even dogs. I have tried every different angle to get the bell ringing more consistently or louder and have not been able to make it effective. I even locked out the front suspension. The bell rang more, but not any louder.Confession... It might work better for others. My commuter bike is a cruiser style with fat tires. It might be a different experience with a thin tired road bike running high pressure tires on chip seal. Though, I don't see this item being a hit with those that wear a kit and ride in pelotons.I did keep it. The manual bell part works OK. I wouldn't recommend it to a friend without verifying that it would work in their circumstances.

Not loud but not quiet
Decent priced bell. Decent sound too. It is just loud enough to not be annoying to you and audible to others on the trail…if they are paying attention, and not locked on phone. Nice dual mode bell.

Too Quiet
I've never written a bad amazon review before but... this bell is just too quiet! I've ridden with it a dozen times and it has NEVER alerted a hiker of my presence before I was already passing them. The sound can't even compete with the crunch of gravel under their own boots. Manually ringing it isn't much better. I've used a Timber bell before and it's way louder despite not being much bigger.

Great dual-purpose option for trail bikes
Installed one of these on my trail bike because I use it on a lot of narrow trails around my city where making your presence known is important to avoid collisions. I find it loud enough to warn people that I'm present but not so loud that it's aggravating to listen to. Note: It's mentioned in the product images, but make sure you mount it angled slightly towards you to make the hammer inside of it contact the bell more regularly. I tried it straight down and it's really quiet in that position.The exterior striker is great for riding on any multi-purpose trails (and, at least in my city, a bell of some sort is a required through a local bylaw). The passive mode often isn't enough on smoother paved trails without some vigorous steering input, so just being able to ding the bell a few times manually is perfect.I mounted this right next to the stem on my bike for two reasons.First was so I could have the bracket clamped directly to the bars without any spacers for extra stability. The included spacers seem like good quality, but I ride this bike in rough terrain and wanted the extra assurance of that solid interface, and it survived plenty of bike park days.The second reason is that I mainly use this bell for its passive mode, so I don't want it cluttering up space near my brakes/shifter/dropper lever. Having the option to mount it completely out of the way near the stem is actually a super nice benefit - making the clamp diameter smaller may have saved half a cent, but I definitely appreciate that they made it a full 35mm to fit modern MTB handlebars. However, the fact that it's secured via a bolt rather than a rubber strap would make me confident that it would survive mounted further out on the bars, if desired.My only criticism is that $30 feels a little steep. It's ultimately just a plastic clamp attached to a thin aluminum bell with a pair of metal strikers. It feels relatively solid and mine has held up for the latter three months of summer just fine changing modes between silent and passive mode, but it doesn't feel especially premium for what it is.Overall, though, it's exactly what I wanted so I suppose in that sense it was worth the money if it continues to hold up.tl;dr - works exactly as advertised, very versatile in mounting options, passive mode works well when mounted as advised, feels a little overpriced for what isn't ultimately a particularly premium-feeling object, but fills a niche well enough that I can forgive it for that

Mi cuarto timbre
Uno piensa que un timbre es algo simple.... y lo es, pero tras mi tercer timbre me di cuenta que no es algo tan simple. Este haces las veces de timbre standard y lo hace bastante bien, pero ademas con un simple tiron hacia abajo, se transforma en una campana o cascabel que suena todo el rato. Es un sonido nada molesto, un poco bajo quizás, para advertir en senderos. Más que a personas que puede no te oigan, insisto que es bajo, creo que es útil para advertir a animales de tu presencia.

Klingelingelingelingelingeli.....
Gleich ein Tipp vorneweg: will man den Dauerklingelmodus nutzen und die Klingel wirklich klingeln lassen, dann sollte man die Klingel etwas schräg (also nicht komplett senkrecht) montieren, dann klingelt sie mehr und häufiger - ruppiger Boden hilft, auf arg glattem Asphalt muss man selbst die Klingel betätigen. Aporpos Klingel: sie ist im Dauerklingelmodus sehr human und unaufdringlich, nicht zu laut aber schon fast zu leise für den öffentlichen Strassenverkehr. Im Strassenverkehr rate ich daher zur Handbedienung, im Gelände nervt das Geräusch des Dauerklingelmodus aufrgund seiner Unaufdringlichkeit wenigst nicht gleich nach wenigen Minuten.Alles in Allem gelungen und passt farblich hervorragend zu den orangen Akzenten am Hardtail auf dem die Klingel seit einiger Zeit bereits montiert ist.

parfait pour les singletracks
Indispensable (à mon sens) pour se signalier sur les singletracks et limiter les risque de collision avec d'autre vtt ou marcheurs. seul bémole, aurait mérité d'être un tout petit peu plus audible.

La miglior campanella per MTB
Ho provato altre campanelle ma questa è veramente ben fatta, il suono molto squillante. Minimale. Montata sul manubrio vicino alle leve in quanto se messa in zona attacco manubrio, in caso di rotazione del manubrio, si rischia che vada a sfregare sul telaio.
