I've got both Ping! bells and Ring-a-ling bells. I prefer the ring-a-lings. I was on a business trip to the Anaheim area and stopped in at Daiso. I picked up a few bicycle related items while there. Most items are $1.75 and that is what I paid for this bell. It works and sounds great. I installed it on my Le Tour on the stem. With drop bars I like to keep the bars free of stuff so that I have more room for my hands.
