Summary

"A number of Velohorns were purchased and distributed across Canada to those police agencies with bicycle patrols. The Velohorn is a cylindrical warning device that fits into the end of a bicycle handle bar. It’s placement is well thought out, and convenient. The activation switch lies along the handle bar end so that the rider need not move hands from the normal steering/holding position to sound the horn. The warning sound is considerably different from the conventional bell sound associated with bicycles."
