In principle, bicycle bells are not exactly an object of desire, at least not from a design point of view, but from a practical point of view their usefulness is not in doubt. Nevertheless, many do not have the most pleasant sound, albeit a characteristic one. What if the bells were sexy and nice sounding? Introducing the Oi bike bell that's sexy, discreet and with a sound you'd mistake for a smartphone.
Oi it is bicycle bell, which does not look like a bell. In contrast to the usual bells, it does not stick out from the handlebars of the bicycle like Cameron Diaz's hair in the movie Nori na Mary. In aluminum black/nelli, it blends in with the "surroundings" and seems like a component of a bicycle, but not as alien as the usual bells seem.

Most bike bells are true to design from 1877. During this time we traveled to the moon, cloned a sheep, created many types of bicycles, invented the Internet, but such a simple analog device, like a bicycle bell, still clings to its design like a plot drunk. But after almost a century and a half, even that can change, because it has Knog invented a bell that brings not only a new design but also a new sound. But we have one concern. The sound is different, but familiar. And not like a bicycle bell that makes us turn around while walking, but like smartphone advertising. So maybe we'll check what's going on with the phone first before turning around. On the other hand, people may turn around because they'll be wondering who has the phone so loud. If you like the bell, you can order it on Kickstarter for (calculated) 41 euros.
