The 8 Best MTB trail Bells (2023 reviews)

The look and feel of this bells are consistent with the high quality we're used to from the rest of Crane's lineup. The Crane Suzuthe crane “suzu” is a vintage-looking bike bell with a curved lever hammer. It features a two key-holed latch adjustment which enables you to mount on a variant-sized handlebar. It has a 55mm wide brass dome with chrome plating. The sound is so clear, and carries for a long time.

This bell has a thumb lever and, when you use it, it strikes a clear, pure tone on the bell that lasts quite a while. It is pleasant to the ear and attracts attention of others very well. The ring of the bell is a polite and effective way of saying 'be warned' without being too confrontational about it.

Beautiful, crisp sound, and also looks beautiful

Best With lots Of People In The trails: Timber! MTB trail Bell

Buy on Amazon

Timber! Is known for creating pragmatic and minimalist bell for people on the go, and its line of timber! Mtb trail bell definitely falls in line with that reputation. This bell has a pleasant sound that can easily be turned off and does't scare your handlebars. It attaches to the handle bar with a rubber o-ring with a built-in finger pull tab, and it comes with a small and a large o-rings. There are just enough ripples and rough spots in the pavement for the bell to ring gently. It also works somewhat on smooth pavement if you angle it parallel to the road so the ringer is touching the bell.

The ability with the slider to control how easily it rings or to turn it off completely is great. There is enough movement to give a light sound that is heard by those walking nearby. The intention of the bell is to alert other riders, pedestrians and horses to your approach, and for this it works wonderfully. It is also completely silent when disengaged, or can be quieted significantly by leaving the lever at the halfway point.
