    I'm a firm believer that if one is going to sell bicycle bells online, there should be sound samples. A shitty sounding bell is unacceptable. I'm so happy to have found this!

      I agree and was disappointed that Crane added audio samples to only a portion of their bell models

    I am a bicyclist, but was on a muti-use trail as a pedestrian and heard the best bike bell ever. It took a lot of searching (amazing that some expect us to buy a bell without ever hearing the sound!), and so grateful to find it was the Crane Riten Brass bell, so I can purchase it now. It's the perfect "I-am-a- bike-getting -ready-to-pass-you" warning-without-causing -pedestrian-,panic bell out there! Love the sound, especially sounded three times. Much better than yelling "on your left" because in that moment, no pedestrian remembers which way is left! A proper, beautiful bell, and a pedestrian knows you are there. Many thanks!

      I hear "on your left" and more than half the time I involuntarily STEP LEFT instead of right!

    The sound of the full sized Suzu (brass) is just magnificent. Wouldn't want to miss it. :)

    The full size Suzu has such a nice sound I feel like it would confuse people rather than get them out of the way.

      i have a similar sounding bell made by the Lion Bell Works out of England . it does confuse people and does get them out of the way . the sound is so unusual that it makes them jump to one side of the road/trail etc. 😂

    Brass bells win Hands down. Louder, clearer, better reverberation and the ring lasts longer.

    i've just bought the Crane Mini suzu ... Sounds great, but how do you fix it to the steering bar???? it's a solid metal ring... you can't tighten it ... There's also a spacer ring, but I don't see how you stop the outer ring from just moving around the inner spacer ring...I see screws here in the video, that are simply not on my bell

      @@YUTfan2 yes. Great on trails. Pleasantly loud enough and recognizable to alert people from several feet away but not alarming enough to annoy or make them jump out of their skins.

    Thank your for the comparison. The "Crane Suzu" bell is obviously louder and its sound lasts longer. Doesn't the TH-cam sound compression makes a difference in terms of sound level? Is the sound close to what we hear in real life, compared to what we listen from the video?

    • @somafabrications9345
      @somafabrications9345  3 ปีที่แล้ว +2

      It is pretty close to the real bell sound. The SLR's mike is pretty sensitive. I put the camera several feet away, but the bells as well as the birds end up sounding very close.

    I have the chrome plated Riten and it sounds better than the brass Riten. That said, the brass Suzu sounds gorgeous.

    • @somafabrications9345
      @somafabrications9345  2 ปีที่แล้ว +3

      The painted bells are done on the aluminum dome bells, which dont have as much sustain as the brass. Aluminum does stay shiney longer than brass

    None of the bells sound that loud in this video, likely automatic level recording - you really need a loud bell above traffic noise. I have a Riten bell which is jolly loud and much better than the bells that just have a single ring.
