Real World Review: Timber Mountain Bike Bell 

I am a mountain biker and avid trial runner. Bike bells have saved me from collisions during both activities many times. Yes, they can be a bit annoying but its worth it. Thanks for the great review, I am going to test this one. I like the hands off option.

Nice chatting with the folks! Classy!

Thank you….great video, especially when we can see u ride & hear the Bell function…🙏🙏, I just ordered one.

Cool bell. I just got a mountain bike again after about 25ish years of not having one and wow!! I can't believe how many more trail users there are now days!! Back in the 90's I rarely would ride and have to yield or be careful passing someone but now it's crazy so yeah, this bell is a must. BTW. Back in the day Mount Falcon was my favorite trail! I'd bike or run up and down it 3 to 4 days a week from the Morrison trail head. I can't wait to make it back there; however, I know I'm going to be a lot slower LOL!!

Excellent test! I'm convinced! :)

I have a cheap bear bell from REI which I strap to my saddle rails, it's not easy to mute, so that's the big disadvantage. If it's annoying and I'm in a less popular area, I'll keep it in my bag or mute it with the magnetic strap I've definitely found it to be helpful at busy city / county parks with lots of hikers and dog walkers. I tend to be less surprising. The Timber bell seems like a great upgrade, I'll probably consider it. Thanks for the review / demo.

Omg what a beautiful place 🥰 Bell is amazing, need to buy 😁

AWESOME REVIEW.. I purchased 2 of them on eBay for $70 Australian dollars delivered.

this is a great idea...wow 👍 currently I am using a whistle a fox 40 is 130 dbs

nice review thanks!

Bought one a few years ago when they were at the Sedona bike festival. Mounting system goes soft if you leave it mounted for a long time. Makes it hard to turn on and off easily. I found that putting several twists in the rubber strap makes it stay put.

Good review and i like your attitude.

Probably the best use for this bell is for warning hikers. I've got one but we have very few hikers on my trails. I've heard it called the dinner bell for bears.

"I may be old and fat but at least I'm slow." - Me I always ride with a bell, a "bear bell". Not because I'm fast, just to let other trail users I'm on the trail. Good content!

Not sure, but I believe the bell is still posed to be mounted facing forward rather than down. Hen you do this, the different switch positions give different sounds.

Got the Timber Bell recently after watching your review. Have u encounter bigger dogs chasing you when you rode past them? My wife was riding right behind me and saw a leashed dog trying to run after me.

Nice piece of gear, I'll probably give it t try!

I initially watched for the review on the bell. However I was quickly enamored with your sweatshirt. Is that a national brand sweatshirt? As a CU grad I have a thing for buffaloes.

Make sure your handlebars can turn and it completely clears the top tube. Got a good scratch from a crash. And I’ve found hikers do here me before I can get close enough to tell them. They have time to pull the dog in close.

This thing will ring in your head for hours afterwords.

Did you get it closer to your thumb?

Keeping it on while riding is super irritating. Wish it was easier to turn on off with your thumb. Good review

You look like Lances brother. No offence there.

How much does it weigh? like a half bottle of water huh? No thanks...

cut 4 minutes off this video and it would be about right. *succinct*

A simple whistle cost less than dollar and its better than this lol

10 secs to sigh and sit down... 9 minutes to review a bell?
