Super-loud Chinese pedicab bell

Pedicabs need a big bell -- all the momentum they are riding on is hard to stop quickly. These guys in Suzhou had a cool set of bells using a old gear to more than one bell, which were struck by an armature in the center turned by the rotation of the front wheel It made a great big ring!
