Peter Boil Thank you. Jesus H Christ.
You're a legend
Thank u very much
Respect brother
Thank you so much.
which one of these will still work in the rain? that's a pretty big problem for most bells!
So I got the Spurcycle bell last year - really because of your video. Thank you! It's an excellent bell and according to my phone's decibel meter app, it is about 105+ db. Very loud and people can hear it several hundred feet away - as long as they can hear the bell's frequency response.
It’s awesome! I love mine :)
Thanks for the comparison video Jamie. It was just what I was looking for to make my decision. Spurcycle for me.
The spring on the rockbros is out of shape and the striker is misaligned (something that happens to the spurcycle bell eventually), 10 seconds and a pair of pliers and you wont tell the difference.
Awesome. This is like comparing a grand piano to an off brand piano made by a cheap mfg. Nice comparison and well done. If you are into quality sound go for the premium model.
Spurcycle is definitely sound much better and resonate much longer. Off course quality is much better solid built .
How do they sound in heavy rains?
Have the spurcycle from the kick-started project. It's a gem
I think it's good to do a video when your microphone's inside a car with its windows rolled up and doors closed. If they hear us with the Spurcycle, it can reduce the risk of dooring.
Sup Jamie! Im really glad you did this comparison. I just recently bought the spurcycle bell on impulse. Then was wondering if there was a difference between that and the rockbros bell. Now I know. I also bought the key clip (which is also pricey but well made, solid feel). Thanks for sharing!!
nicc0tine69 great choice! Should have gotten the Spurcycle instead of the Rockbros lol
You happy with it?
OK. My ears are ringing after the Spurcycle bell. I'm getting that one. Thanks for the video.
Distinct difference, thanks for the review. The resonance is outstanding.
It certainly is!
I have the Spurcycle.I dont want to buy a copy ,because I respect the work and inovation of the original brand.
Is 3 time expensiver but the sound last way longer and I am happy to own the original.
Going to purchase the Spurcycle bell tonight from REI Online. Thank you for the comparison. Cheers from So California
Get the rockbros bell in an unpainted colour and test again, you will be surprised.
Where to get this?
Well if you live in Singapore, you can get it from Hello Bicycle
Test starts at 06:19
Used the hornit for a year and same thing here, noone reacted to it. So I switched to a spurcycle and I get alot of responses now!
I ordered Spurcycle Bell. When I receive it, how do I know I haven't received the counterfeit one? Is the Rockbros packaging say Rockbros?
There is etching on the straps of the Spurcycle model.
@@RickyG225 Hey, thanks!!
@@virkelie2 Sure thing. Guys like you are needed on YT. Love making informed purchases IMO!
Nice review ✌🏻
May I know where u bought the SPURCYCLE Bell?
Bought it from Hello Bicycle, best to give them a ring to check if it’s still available.
Jamie Lim thanks for the info bro. Thanks 🙏
Lol, just bought a spurbell a few hours ago and saw your comparison video when I got home on my feed. Made me confirmed that I have made the right choice!
+Robin Chua most definitely my Friend!
Hi Robin ..please share where to get that bell with best deal, thanks!
6 minutes 30 secs before we heard the sound of the bell - to much waffle
How do pedestrians respond to the sound? Do they move out of the way or just listen to the hypnotizing sound but block your path?
Sadly...they still block the path unless I ring it for a sustained period of time lol
@@jamieohpa I think it depends on how crowded the path is. If there's not much room, it's less likely they want to move out of the way.
Lmfaoo I was watching the Japon tramway video, listening to the train barrier warning bells and sirens its ringing through my head, 😆 I need some of those when I get an ebike lol

woooooooooo wooooooooooo
I wish i could afford the spurcycle bell. It's bit pricey though
I bought one and rang it for my doorman who said, “You need a louder bell.” Granted, it’s NYC. But I have ordered a Loud Bike horn to go with it.
I can’t use the Loud Bike anywhere in Singapore
It’s way too loud! 😂
I can tell that sustain of SpurCycle is 8x longer, especially much longer on above 80Db range! Cannot compare spoon with bell. It deserves being sold for 4x higher price.
Thank you for sharing :) like for you
I just shift my gear lever a few times to signal, if they don't hear it I just say passing
Spurcycle is outstanding 👍👍👍
Rockbros, as I was not aware of the quality and sound difference
ding ding!
Very good video bought two of the bells today. Not the China knock-off , no one thinks that one is worth the money.
That noise you played at the beginning souded like a black bird, probably why we pay no attention to it sounding like a bird in a tree.
Get a motorcycle grade horn that makes close to 100 decible noise everytime and be done with it!
Goddam that continued ringing is annoying. If I wanted duration I’d buy a freaking horn. Rockbros for the win.
tats a huge difference in the output
...and price. No doubt the SpurCycle is the better bell, but here in Australia, it's $100AUD more expensive.
02:28 to *see* ??? [to hear]
Great observational skills 👏
Rockbros, you tighten the bell too much vs Spurcycle.
Honestly, my 3 USD classic spinning style bell sounds way better. Not as loud but as it rings several times while the lever is being pushed as well as when it is being released, it sounds for longer and is more noticeable. And it won't fail after 3 months as that "cheap" Rockbross knockoff, in fact, it has been happily ringing for 10 years despite being all rusty...I would either go big with that US made bell or go cheap with my generic no name bell, but never in the middle with that Rockbross, it fells like overpaying for something that doesn't even give you bragging rights.
On another video the Spurcycle only could generate 65db with a guy using a computer instead of a app on a phone, which makes me wonder how accurate the app is.
I don’t think it’s an accuracy issue. Distance is a major factor when measuring decibels. The phone is registering a high decibels because it’s being held right next to the bells.
Incidentally this means that decibel ratings are meaningless if the manufacturer doesn’t include a distance…
Really,
we get to watch 9minutes that could have been 90 seconds...
There is a fast-forward feature...
Jamie Lim and it saved 8 minute, thanks.
Thomas Jaszewski if you’re watching bike bell videos on UA-cam, my guess is you have 9 minutes to burn.
@@jameswilliamjones 😂
Bees Werk EXACTLY HAHAHAHA
I really do hope this was your last ever review?
Starts at 4:00. you're welcome.
Correction: Truly starts at 6:20. #FFS
Because brass projects beautiful sounds, that spurcycle sings like a bird! The chime is melodic
Your testing is incorrect.
You have both bells differently attached.
You have the first bell fastened over the rubber.
Different tightening of the metal bundle.
All of this affects the vybration that make up the sound.
Regardless, the Rockbros still sucks.
Why pay so much for a bell????
The ring is superb and it never breaks down!
Jamie Lim well, after watching your video and listening to the ring of it, im kinda tempted to get one. LOL. But im not willing to pay so much for spurcycle one. So maybe getting the cheaper one and hope it last longer than yours 😁
So that people can hear you properly. If it doesn't work properly, why bother at all?
If they hear you, then it's safer. Think of drivers opening their doors, pedestrians with headphones, traffic noise in the rain, headwind for the cyclist you want to pass, etc.
Thoroughly unimpressed with the mounting straps with these bells. I bought the cheap rockbros via eBay for under US$6 via eBay. Spurcycle bell sounds better but why do they expect me to tighten a metal band over carbon fibre? Sure I can add some tape but it looks ugly.
Get the Spurcycle...ZERO REGRETS
Jamie Lim Will do 😁 I will ring this cheap bell until it dies and then support the real makers of this nice design and not the copy. The sound of the bell is great - I used the rockbros bell today for the first time and many pedestrians moved over. Compared to my old 'regular' bell this makes a noticeable difference. 👊
Not the ultimate test at all. You have an unpainted bell vs a painted bell
By the time you ding this thing, you've already run the kid over, great chime for calling the butler though.
日本ん？
Awesome, so glad to see the US blow away the competition.
it is loud but $50 no f'n way
Well believe me the Rock Bros is even worse and 20 dollars is as good as money down the drain...
i would rather buy the Zound air horn
It's only 8 dollars on Aliexpress nowadays.
@@jamieohpa nonsense, it still works as a bell. Additionally, in Australia, the Spurcycle bell is up to $100 more expensive. That's what I call money down the drain.
Those things are illegal in Oz.
Lmao, they're the same bell, made in the same factory by the same children but sold for 10-70€/$ depending on branding.
You cannot tell me otherwise unless you have physical proof.
Ring the stupid bell already!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
10$ vs 70$ ? For only 9 more decibels more? Idk. Id probably just pick the 10$ bell still.
It's a bell, why do you people think you have to spend so much time talking? sheesh. Just ring the bells! I don't want it that load when I'm just trying to let people know I'm coming up on them. Load is not always better.
So Rock Bros cloned the design and made it out of cheaper material…
Sir
Using part of video for developing one multiple disability aid....
Hope you allow me...

Spurcycle much better.
So work you ass off, create a product with unique design and do it with your own- insert - blood, sweat, and tears. Drain your saving account with r&d, prototypes, testing, and opportunity costs. Oh, spend time and months getting the kickstarter program together. It's your work, and you own it, .... then arrives a company that buys your product and copys it to exact specification and sell it for less. Why sure, they didn't do anything but copy it and yes, it should cost less. THEY DIDN'T DO ANYTHING TO EARN IT! I bought a Spurcycle yesterday, and this video only confirms my decision. Does Rockbros actully do anthing creative? Why not name yourself Copybros.?
Rock Bros sucks big time....I hear you bro...
Sorta like my ineos pinarello dogma f12 frame i just bought for 700usd from china
10 Minuten Zeitverschwendungs- bla-bla für eine Fahrradklingel, am besten gleich zum Ende vorspringen,
I think he made this video to record the sound of his own voice.
You ok bro? 😂
No doubt Rockbros just out and out copied Spurcycle (they should have filed those patent papers - true story).
Also, no doubt Spurcycle sounds noticeably better.
However, Spurcycle is about $85AUD + $30AUD shipping. Rockbros is about $15AUD with free shipping.
Personally speaking, the SpurCycle is NOT worth the extra ONE HUNDRED DOLLARS!
Have you tried it? Unfortunately, Rockbros is just outright thrash.
I hate to say it but dam I have to say USA USA.
STOP RINGING THA FRIGGIN BELL ALREADY!!!
Stop watching already 😂
The Spurcycle is much better. But I'm glad the Chinese make knockoffs . As a European I will never buy american anymore. With Trump president and braking the world I will never give a cent to an american company. Degoogling, demicrosofting, etc.
This is a great design and the Chinese knockoff is good enough. Thanks Rockbross for bringing this great design to people who don't want to finance america.
Virtue signal received and understood. Good move BTW supporting a business in a country that has an appalling human rights record over one of the few true free countries of the world. But ORINGE MAN BAD I guess. smfh.
We got rid of that guy. Yes, it's not great over here but many of us are trying.
When that first bell hit accidentally, clearly that bell is the winner lol. The other is called a knockoff for a reason. Ok ching ching? lol
Spurs sounds nicer, but 20x more expensive🥲
