Velo Orange Striker Bell

The hammer-type striker allows for a more deliberate, resonant strike against the brass dome. This design typically produces a louder, clearer sound that cuts through ambient traffic noise more effectively than smaller, spring-loaded thumb levers.

The included chrome clamp is designed for standard handlebar diameters. If you are using oversized bars (31.8mm or larger) or specific aero-shaped drop bars, you may need to verify compatibility or consider an alternative mounting position.

Brass will naturally develop a patina over time, which many riders prefer for a vintage aesthetic. If you prefer a polished look, you can occasionally wipe it down with a standard metal polish to remove oxidation and restore the shine.

Yes, the solid brass construction creates a distinct, high-frequency ring that is generally louder and more resonant than aluminum or plastic alternatives. It is well-suited for signaling pedestrians and other cyclists in urban environments.

The bell is designed to be ambidextrous. You can mount it on either side of your handlebars depending on your preference and where you have available space near your grips or shifters.
