@scottay did a video without tunes...???

 

Busted out a quick edit while at work last nite.....and had my annoying bell to drown out most of my grunts and groans!
.

Cool @scottay !!! Yeah I don't know about that bell. I definitely understand what they're for, but in the first few seconds I wanted to reach through the screen!!! My bell isn't constant ringing. I gotta ring my bell

Lmao!!! You're reading my mind!!!
But seriously, secure that bell

 

You know what else I noticed? I don't hear any ratchet. What do you run that is so quiet?

 

I love that little section of trail, both up and down.

 

Actually I unleashed the bell 30 seconds into the Sunset vid. It has a stowable clacker.
.
I think the hub noise is just muted because the chest mount just picks up mostly front side noise?

I do have some silent Onyx hubs that are awesome, but these are I9's.

The crew wimped out on climbing it. Apparently they needed to hit more asphalt....

Or it was an etiquette thing....
.

 

Gotta have that bell ringing on the front range at all times. Hikers all over the place. Annoying but necessary.

I believe it was a mud issue ... We didn't bring any etiquette...

 

Bells are a necessity on those trails. Too many hikers and lots of blind curves.
Besides they’re not as annoying as me screaming like a girl

 

I gotcha! But what do you mean by front range?

 

Front range means the trails on the slopes of the San Gabes, typically those above Pasadena and other cities heading east along the 210.
Come on out and join a ride!
If you dare. And bring a bell.
