When I first started cycling, I never imagined that even on days when it looked like rain, having my beloved bike equipped with fenders would make me actually want to go for a ride.
Listening to the sound of kicked-up raindrops hitting the fenders, and occasionally finding myself captivated by the way the droplets catch the light and sparkle, I sometimes feel as though I’m seeing things I never noticed before.
Haven’t you all experienced how encountering a beautiful key item that gently shifts your fixed way of thinking can expand the world you enjoy?
It seems that the passionate vision of us here at SimWorks, who create so many such key items, combined with the technical expertise and philosophy of the fender specialists at Honjo Mudguards, has resulted in a tortoiseshell-patterned product that anyone, for some reason, finds beautiful—even in this new digital age.
【SimWorks by Honjo Turtle Bell】
Material : Brass
Bell Style : Mechanical
Clamp Size : ~22.2mm
Price : ¥7800+tax
An elegant tortoiseshell-style bell that calls to mind a golden koi carp.
Using a SimWorks-original tortoiseshell stamp, each one is manufactured by hand.
The tortoiseshell pattern, a secret technique from Honjo Mudguards in Tokyo, complements the texture of the brass to create a rich presence and sound.
*Every bell is engraved with a serial number.
In fact, this is different from the tortoiseshell mold used for standard fenders. Because it uses a dedicated SimWorks-original stamping die, the Turtle Bell takes several times longer to manufacture than the fender version.
The rainy season is approaching, so along with Honjo Mudguards' fender products, please try enjoying life on two wheels by letting the rich sound of this brass bell stir your heart.
