Anyone know if anywhere in Dublin stocks this baby?

Bespoke Cyclery have them, but they're not bricks and mortar (though are Irish). On Track may be able to order in some of the Velo Orange stuff too, so worth asking in there (On Cook St)

Cool bell. I think a decent bell is a very underrated piece of cycling kit.

Not on the continent. The mainlanders love ringing their bell.

There is literally no way of making that sentence not loaded with sexual innuendo but I tried.

Thanks for the link. Lovely stuff there. Though, the bell isn't the same mechanism as the photo - their one is a springy bell. I read bad things about those ringing when you go over bumps!

I'd like to order the bell I'm looking for from an Irish crowd, but if not, I'll have to go with these dudes.

So I'm all ears ...

I think that is right. AFAIK here it is the other way around, no need to supply but cyclist must have one on bike. Never enforced obviously.
