Headset Mounted Bell

Bluestoesonnose

Got a new commuter bike, which came with a bell, which I'm finding useful when using cycle paths full of peds and as the summer months are coming I'm sure it'll get a fair bit of use

Whilst I'd like to keep the bell it's taking up room on the bars and with a Garmin mount and lights it's a little too much. I've seen a few steerer mounted bells but they seem set up for bikes with the front brake on the left and operation with the right hand, I'm looking for one I can easily operate with my left thumb so I can cover the front brake, oh, and it must be in black....

Any options out there?

Cheers

Have seen oher options but this is the first I found.

What about the following, although you would need to see if you have enough clearance to rotate the bell for left hand operation;

Thanks, both aren't quite correct, I've emailed Lion to see if they can help

I have a rotary bell moundet on the stem of my commuter. looks great but tends to ring when it hits bumps.

One I have seen is a bar-end mounted bell.

Where did the stem mounted bell come from? Or is it a home made modifications?

Or you could get one of those top caps with the controls diameter bar mounted off them, put the Garmin on that (or on the stem or top tube behind the head tube) and keep the bell in easy reach?

Mine came from the local market! It's meant to be handle bar mount, but I fitted it to the stem with a bit of inner tube for extra grip and to protect the stem. The only mod was to file a portion of the bell push away to clear the top of the stem.

I'll take a pic at some point if you like?
