Project of the day
I’m using the IGH project bike for most of my shopping errands these days, so I’ve been dodging slower-moving traffic sans bell. The traditional bikey alert sound (“On your \<x>!”) works best when you’re young and shouty, so I finally fixed having to do it by brazing a m5 bolt onto the (steel, serendipitously) stem, then taking an Electra bell, cutting off its mounting hardware, then drilling and tapping it to mate with the bolt.
Much brass. So dingy. Wow.
