Cyclists Stay Awesome bell pic.jpgNow you can let them hear you're awesome with the Cyclists Stay Awesome bell…Ting! Ting!
Everybody likes to feel awesome and everybody likes to feel safe too - now you can do both at the same time with the Cyclists Stay Awesome bicycle bell.
Let other road users and pedestrians know you’re there by giving them a cheery ting-a-ling as you ride along with our classic bicycle bell.
With a clamp designed to fit 25.4mm or 26mm standard width bars it should fit most urban bikes and kids bikes, and a fair few other types of bike too. Sadly straight out of the box it won’t fit the sort of over-sized bars found on higher end road bikes - but that problem’s easily solved by the simple addition of longer bolts.
The new Cyclists Stay Awesome bell is available now from the road.cc shop for £9.99 - inc postage and packaging - and we’ll chuck in some free cyclists stay awesome stickers too.
Last day for Christmas orders is Thursday 17th December.
road.cc's founder and first editor, nowadays to be found riding a spreadsheet. Tony's journey in cycling media started in 1997 as production editor and then deputy editor of Total Bike, acting editor of Total Mountain Bike and then seven years as editor of Cycling Plus. He launched his first cycling website - the Cycling Plus Forum at the turn of the century. In 2006 he left C+ to head up the launch team for Bike Radar which he edited until 2008, when he co-launched the multi-award winning road.cc - finally handing on the reins in 2021 to Jack Sexty. His favourite ride is his ‘commute’ - which he does most days inc weekends and he’s been cycle-commuting since 1994. His favourite bikes are titanium and have disc brakes, though he'd like to own a carbon bike one day.

I'm all for making a profit, too, but I can never help recalling that the first "stay awesome" products appeared two weeks after this tweet.

By all means get a bell but please let use abolish the cretinous word "awesome" from our collective vocabulary. It's just not British. Let us replace it with more honest and modest phrases such as "quite good" or "not bad".
Buy a bell for £2 and put a 'stay awesome' sticker on it!
Because nothing says awesome quite like a bike bell...
No thanks
Well here's one to annoy our Tony.
I'm all for making a profit, it keeps the world turning, but a tenner for a two-quid bell that won't even fit oversize bars? Give it a break.
You're obviously an expert Mike so If you can point us to where we can get those £2 bells without having to buy a few thousand to get the price - please do. I'll send out for some yacht catalogues in anticipation of the fat profits to come.

You can buy a bell at Wilko for £1, not the same as this but does just as good a job I imagine, I have one on each of my bikes.

Or up the price to £1.25 and you can have the same.
