Bike bells generally look and sound a bit ugly. But why? What if they looked sexy and sounded like an angel playing a glockenspiel? A bell with a beautiful tone but also a remarkable style and choice of materials that embodies a rider’s personality. A new addition to our beloved Oi Range the Prima features our new “Wave-Tek” hammer technology. The updated hammer design means a more consistent tone and a slight increase in the bell's volume. The strike of the bell on the Oi Prima is still firm and fast allowing a good balance of volume and longevity of sound. One of the pain points on many bikes is the handlebar cables getting in the way of exisiting bell designs. Not on the Oi Prima. Built into the shape of the mount is a handy cable management system. The Large size fits 23.8 – 31.8mm The Small size fits 22.2mm bars.

FAQs
What is the difference between the Small and Large Oi Prima bells?
The primary difference is the handlebar diameter they are designed to fit. The Small bell is for 22.2mm bars, while the Large bell accommodates a wider range from 23.8mm to 31.8mm and includes shims for a precise fit.
How does the WAVETEK hammer technology improve the sound?
WAVETEK technology is an innovation in the hammer design that creates a more consistent strike on the bell's ring, resulting in a beautiful, balanced, and pleasant tone.
Will this bell fit my aero handlebars?
The Oi Prima is designed for standard round handlebars. Its wrap-around design may not fit optimally on heavily shaped or aero handlebars. Please check your handlebar diameter and shape for compatibility.
Can I mount the bell on my brake or shifter levers?
No, the Oi Prima is designed specifically to mount onto the handlebar itself. Its unique design aims to integrate cleanly without interfering with other controls.
Is the bell weather-resistant?
The bell is built with durable materials for regular use. However, like most bike accessories, prolonged exposure to harsh weather can affect its longevity. It is recommended to keep it dry when possible.
What is included in the box?
The box contains the Oi Prima Bell, a Hex Key for installation, and Shims/Spacers (included only with the Large size bells for a perfect bar fit).
How loud is the bell?
The bell is designed to produce a sound that is loud enough to be heard by pedestrians and other cyclists in typical riding conditions, while remaining pleasant and not overly harsh.
Troubleshooting
Bell tone is weak or inconsistent.
Ensure the bell is securely mounted and not loose. Check that the WAVETEK hammer mechanism is free to move and not obstructed. Verify you have the correct size bell for your handlebar diameter.
Bell is rattling while riding.
Tighten the clamp screw using the Hex Key. If using the large size, ensure the correct shims are installed and providing a snug fit.
Bell is difficult to install.
Loosen the clamp screw completely. Ensure the bell is correctly oriented around the handlebar. For the large size, try different shim combinations for a better fit.
Bell lever feels stiff.
Check for any debris or obstructions around the lever mechanism. Gently flex the lever to dislodge any potential blockages. If the issue persists, contact customer support.
