The bell on my last bike was gifted to me so when I bought this one I just kept the old bell and put it on my new ride. Is it right, I don't know...is it wrong, I don't know...do I care, not really.

If I buy a bike with those bells on them, I take them off and throw them in a drawer. I've got three of them right now. I consider the whole "gremlin bell" silly.

Don't know what good they are doing in a drawer.Take them out and throw them in the trash,but to be on the safe side,get a rabbits foot to ward off the offended Gremlins.
