Introduction
Picture this: you are riding your bike down the street, and a pedestrian steps out into the street. You go to ring your Electra Domed Ringer Bike Bell, but there’s no ring when you pull the lever. What do you do now? You can fix it! This guide will assist you in disassembling and removing rust from the metal band attached to the lever—the component responsible for the ringing sound when the lever is pulled. Fixing an Electra Domed Ringer Bike Bell with a faulty metal band yourself is a fast and easy process that will also save you money and prevent unneeded waste.
