Installing the HideMyBell is really easy thanks to the stainless steel bolt facing upwards. Although, it can only be fitted to 31.8mm bars.

Made out of plastic the finish is not has high as other cycling computer mounts, but it is sturdy and fulfils the primary objective of holding the computer securely - at no point was I concerned that my expensive cycling computer would be dislodged.

I had some initial concerns about the practicality of being able to reach the bell's lever, as due to the bell sitting out in front of the bars you need to take a hand of the the bars.

The bell is simple to operate

However, I soon got the hang of hitting the bell on the move and it is more than loud enough to get people's attention.

If you have ever thought about using a bell but didn’t want to clog up your bars, HideMyBell could be the solution.
