I always have a big shiny "ding dong glock", I have tried those silly pingers...i rate them only moderately above useless, but these are fab and elicit a pleasant response from pedestrians, you can ding dong from about 50 mtrs and still be heard, £7.00 !!, here it is in action

From where?

Halfords are selling them for £6.99 which is ridiculously cheap they are worth 3x that, they are excellent quality and should last forever HOWEVER one thing to watch, the striker is held on with a star washer, I did have one come off and the striker came off....it cant go anywhere so it can be put back on so on mine (I have 4!!!!) I add an additional star washer to the shaft, it may have been a one off in any case, they dont have them in stock you have to click and collect a bell from your local store....here https://www.halfords.com/cycling/bi.../halfords-traditional-chrome-bell-382770.html

On my gravel bike I’m running a Spurcycle bell. By far the loudest I’ve heard anyone use.

I like the ping bells. The ones I use are loud. No amount of ringing clears the walking dead (headphone wearers) out of the way.

Whistle.
I've just printed a new one. it's awesome and even the walking dead can hear it (quite possible that the actual dead can hear it).

used to, but then I found the love of my life and gave up with that sort of behavior.

Bell sounds more like tea and sponge cake will be served.

Ahhh that's the thing I like, it alerts people but not in an abrupt way
