Gremlin Bells

[Deleted member 706]

Breto has kindly sent me a Gremlin bell, I'll look forward to it arriving.
He's paid it forward because he's a smart guy who knows how to take a hint 🖖
It's my turn to send one to someone who will then have their turn, so anyone who wants one should get one. Stateside, Euro I don't care first in best dinged...

18 of August delivery date at this stage bro…👍

I suppose it’s not as ridiculous as believing in God………That reminds me, must put that tooth under the pillow for the fairy!!

I have bought and gifted a couple of them, one being on my son's bike.
Next time I'm the area I'll grab another one for whomsoever wants it.

similar legend to that of Gremlins on fighter planes (hence why they are called either Gremlin Bells or Guardian Bells).
and probably started by people who returned from war and rode motorcycles too.

Thanks Breto, it arrived today it went straight on the bike, the replacement tyre arrived to.
I wish that was equally easy to fit 🙄

Glad you like it man. It’s actually a gremlin riding a bike. Bit unique man. Hope it serves you well bro 👍😎

 

[Breto]

That’s another reason I love my tyre machine. So much easier man…👍

I was going to take the rear wheel out, take it to the shop and then bring it home.
I asked my arthritic hands but they convinced me to take the bike to the local independent workshop, push it in and ride it out.
Now who wants the next bell?

What's the unfortunate part, USN?

 

[ferraiolo1]

He passed away in a brutal Mc accident shortly after installing his bell. He was a member on here as well.

 

[Deleted member 706]

Sorry to hear that, not the retired submariner?

 

[ferraiolo1]

Yeah it was him.

My condolences to his family and friends.
