Reading a thread about collisions on paths with 'little old ladies' and subsequent bike damage.

I am looking for not a bell.. rather some kind of a electronic device that sounds like a train.. a fighter jet etc. Mostly I would not use this on bike riders.. I wouldn't want to ride home knowing I caused cardiac arrest.

Rather.. my main target is these blankety blank blank and blank n blank morons/idiots/complete imbeciles.. who walk said pet on 50 ft leash down a path... With total disregard to any traffic either way.

I would most enjoy watching said moron fill their shorts... :mrgreen:

Where.. could I purchase such a device?
I believe almost nothing I read and 'hear'

I believe roughly half of what I see with my own eyes.. in person.

I do not carbon.. anything

Screw electronic. Get a Delta Airzound. When I lived in Atlanta and commuted to downtown every day, I got plenty of use out of mine. It puts any car horn to shame. https://designbydelta.com/products/arizound-horn

Maybe you should slow down on "the path" or give those old bitties a little more room -- save your PR attempts for the road.

Haven't found anything louder than the DT 240 hubs on my gravel bike.

No joke...freewheel those when riding on the paths with my kids and people move lol.

You need to lube them if they are loud. I’ve got six sets of 350/240/180 and regularly sneak up on people.

:smartass: what we have here "is a failure to communicate".

Said 'old bitty' can also be any flavor, any gender of young dumbass was said fleabag on a Long leash.. allowing said fleabag to wrap itself around your bicycle.. even at walking speed.. this after you have made your presence known.

I want the big horn.. with the jet fighter roar option... LOL.

DO NOT use the trails much myself personally. Just a couple short jumps to avoid heavy Street traffic where goober could/will run you over on the narrow shoulder.
