Endorsed by me…I have one hanging on my Deuter…good that way because I ride different bikes to work, depending on my mood, and not every bike has a bell.
Yes - they must have at least one mechanical braking device. No one’s challenged a fine yet (last I knew) so as to settle this issue of whether a fixed wheel setup falls under this definition… I would gladly do it, but despite hanging heaps rad whip skids in front of police, I’ve never been fined for riding brakeless
BRAKE DEBATE!!
what i meant though is that pdmeyer seems to want to keep his fixie sleek and minimal and zen and shit, so he’s probably not after legal advice.
anyway i think he needs to get a whistle and be done with it.
Whistle? If I had glow sticks and wear phat pants then maybe…
Nah pass.
I see a guy who commutes in full rave gear every day.
I’ve used the whistle before. Just strapped it to be my backpack strap. Certainly got people’s attention better than a bell ever has. Really pissed a few people off too. Also the honky-thing option is a good one.
Rave whistle or rape whistle?
honky things rule - they’re far less offensive and half the time people will happily move and chuckle about it too.
This. Have one on my gf’s bike for that reason. Too bad she’s a raging lunatic on the bike paths and regularly yells abuse at people not doing the right thing.
how do i find honky thing on the internet?? lost my last one
they’re like $2 from kmart, or the chicago equivalent of kmart
Whaddya know, it’s an oz invention

cheers blakey…and yeah things aren’t entirely the same here.
woh that’s awesome. if australia ever host the world cup, i hope everyone in the crowd has one
i’m gonna get one for the chunky toad.
truth.
id be inclined to challenge a ticket (later) if i had a bell/hoota attached to my bag - using the reasoning that CC mentions, or that you have had them frequently stolen and this avoids that.
i’m still considering getting a duck call/whistle for alerting the latte-wielding meat pylons i encounter, plus LOLz.
or a kazoo. or a very small bugle.
