Alrighty. One of the less Important things but a must have - a suitable bell.
A small, gold Crane bell seems like an obvious option. Could even get it in black. But, it's almost too obvious.
Then I looked around and found quite a basic black Bridgestone bell. It's simple but I like it, so it stays on the maybe list.
Also in my search I discovered the Mirrycle Jellibell. But the closest colour to my paint would be the turquoise-y blue which is a bit too off blue for it to suit the build. They're nice (I might get a green one for a different bike) but not for this bike.
I did have a collection of Japanese bells some years ago and I'm kicking myself for not knowing what happened to the Doraemon one I had. Would've matched the build so nicely. I can't even find an image of the one I had but I'm pretty sure it was an officially licensed product so maybe just hard to find. It could be lurking somewhere in the old boxes, but I doubt it. Ah well.
And then there's my preferred option. Overkill, but then why should I compromise when I know it's the best one? (Besides Doraemon)
MKS titanium aero bell, nuff said I think?
For the best ding you could go Crane mini/Lionworks on a stem spacer, because lord knows you're going to have a few. Alternative is Spurcycle or similar which look better than the aero thing.
