TIMBER Mountain Bike Bell – New Bolt-On Model
Our new bolt-on model of mountain bike bell. If you find yourself using your bell on nearly every ride, this is the model for you. Both models of TIMBER offer trail awareness when you need it, silence when you don’t. A simple on/off lever controls the internal clapper. Slide it down for on, or up for off. The motion of the bike activates the sound. Designed for safe, friendly passing and signaling on shared use trails, and alerting wildlife, including bears and mountain lions. Mounts anywhere on your handlebars using a new 5mm hex bolt. Mounts tight and won’t shake or spin on your bars. Mount either at the stem, or near the grips with the included flexible 22.2 mm shim. Installs easily. There is no need to remove the grips, brakes or shifters. New for spring 2017, we’ve improved the life of the internal index mechanism (on/off switch), and beefed up the strength of the internal clapper cable. We’ve also upgraded the to a stainless steel bolt, and made in the USA lifetime quality solid brass threaded insert that won’t ever strip or wear out.

Wise investment – good sound and installed easily Our bear season is starting back up here in Northern New Mexico so this seemed like a wise investment. Installed easily and the sound is loud enough without being unpleasant. I really like the mute feature – it’d drive me nuts to have it going when I’m riding on a road or in town. The mute seems to “stick” for a sec (i.e. when you put it back into active mode it won’t clang until you hit a bump) – not a big deal.I’m a little bummed by something in the description that…
Get the excellent strap-mounted version, not the bolt-on version This two-star review is for the bolt-on version because the inflexible bolt-on system makes the bell susceptible to breakage from minor blows and jostling. Read on for details.I have purchased six of these bells for myself and family members–three of the strap-on version and three of the bolt-on version. In general, the idea and execution of the bell is excellent. I personally have avoided several high-speed collisions with other cyclists and with trail runners because the bell let…
Aggravating installation / arrived scratched up. I bought a Timberbell recently because of the review on bikepacking.com and watching YouTube videos. I have not had a chance to try it on a trail mostly due to the *aggravating* installation of the bell. I bought the clamp-on version because I just do not like rubber straps. I am rough on equipment and I am afraid the rubber straps won’t last with me.There is no way I can see (unless I’m just overlooking something) to install the clamp-on version without taking a grip off. I wound…
