An internet search doesn't yield a whole lot of information about the company itself, other than its 10 products and goal to produce products with "Clear tones. Attractive sound.

10 Best Bike Bells in 2022 - Bells for Your Bicycle

At 30mm x 20.5mm, the dome is actually quite small for such a loud ring. And while there's no real performance benefit to it, many users —myself included— will mount the bell facing forward rather than up. This is mostly for aesthetics but it also makes hitting the striker easier perhaps. I genuinely enjoy reviewing and comparing products and helping people orient themselves in cycling. Road cycling is closest to me, but I also have a good grasp of other disciplines, such as mountain and gravel biking or commuting.Happily, it does have multiple settings for quieter cycle routes. The ‘piercing’ road mode is best used in dense traffic, but there’s also a lower-pitched car horn (120 dB) designed for cycle paths. That’s still pretty loud, so you won’t ever have to worry about not being heard. This tiny bell can sit anywhere on your handlebars, making it a great option for drop-bar bikes. This allows you to access and use the bell without moving your hand away from the brakes or potentially losing balance. It’s tiny enough to fit around the hoods on drop-bar bikes, but still makes an effectively loud ring sound for in-traffic riding.

You can choose between three volume levels, although changing them (by holding down a button) feels a little fiddly – especially if you’re moving. Nonetheless, this is a versatile horn suited to everything from the daily commute to a more sedate ride through the countryside.

Most bike bells are loud enough to notify others. Unfortunately, many manufacturers don’t state the noisiness of their bells.The problem though was that these motion-activated bells would ring the entire ride long. Using a regular striker bell is also suboptimal as it's not safe to take your hands off the grips mid-descend to ring it. We went with a totally different variety on this one, opting for an electronic bell for the most challenging types of city and in-traffic riding. It has loud peak noisiness that surpasses 106 dB. However, the sound lasts for a short time (just around 2 seconds). Mudder Bike Bell sound I am actually rather surprised that more bells don't use a simple notched strap like this. It holds up well, even on bumpy gravel terrain and provides versatility in mounting locations and shapes. The only critique I have of the bell is that the mounting strap isn't flexible enough to withstand frequent mounting and re-mounting If one wanted to swap the bell between bikes.
