Default RE: how to attach a guardian bell to the bike

Whats up with so many people hanging them up high?&nbsp\\; I always heard its supposed to be at the lowest point on the bike.
&nbsp\\;
There are only 2 rules...
&nbsp\\;
1) Someone else has to buy it for you.
&nbsp\\;
2) Attach bell to the lowest part of the bike.
&nbsp\\;

I got a guardian bell for Christmas that came with a metal plate with a hole that I put a bolt through and tightened it with a nut, both of which I painted flat black so they were less noticeable. I put the bell under the headlight, behind the forks.

Have used key chain ring on the old bikes. Now I use zip ties on the floor board mount. 82 yr old father in law wires it to the frame.

As a side note:&nbsp\\; When I had my wreck last year a mechanic at the dealer told me that all the wrecked bikes coming in seemed to have a bell on them, as did mine!

Maybe they don't work? &nbsp\\; Just sayin'
Maybe it could have been a worse wreck......
Your still here!

As was said way earlier in this post it, it must be given and it must be mounted LOW . Low is the only way it will keep those "villians" at bay!!!!
