We bought this horn for my daughter's new bike. I love the classic look of it, and the sound certainly won't disappoint. It's a classic, high-pitched quack of sorts that is slightly different in pitch when the air is forced out and when the air is sucked back into the horn.I would have given it five stars, based on how well it works, but the smell of the vinyl is appallingly bad. I could smell it before I opened the box it came in. After honking it twice, my hands stink terribly. I put it on my desk, and I think I'm going to have to move it, it's making me feel a little headachey.
We have a month before my daughter's birthday. I hope somehow the smell will dissipate, but I have my reservations. Stinky vinyl is often a permanent condition. I guess I'd sort of hoped the bulb would have been made of rubber instead of vinyl.
Like all things Schylling, it's a really great idea, but it's really just wasted when they turn to cheap, China manufacturing. What a shame.

Product Description:
Clarabell's Horn You get two tones (one squeezing, the other while the bulb inhales) from this retro bike horn, whose tone is much more a Clarabellian quack (see Howdy Doody if you're too young) than a deep Harpo Marxian (ditto) honk. Which is good on a bicycle. Measures 8" long with a 2-3/8" bell and a rubber bulb that will be either red, black, or purple. Includes a removable handlebar mount.
