    I wonder how hard it would be to mount a truck’s airhorn on a bike.

    That wouldn’t work on the bikes that have been left unattended, though, hence the kicking.

      You could probably get a ton of mileage out of an aerosol air horn, if those are available in your area.

        Years ago I did have an air-powered horn for my bike that you could pump up with a regular bike pump. It was pretty loud. The thing with bike horns, though, is that the times you’d want to use them are also the times when you need to be grabbing both brakes. I find just shouting works as well.

          Hmmm. Interesting, I hadn’t thought of that. So maybe there’s a need for a bike horn that’s super loud and that you can trigger with a finger while you’re braking.

            Yeah, that wouldn’t work. Brakes aren’t only for emergencies. In fact, they rarely are.
