Classy. More practical, and popular if controversial in Vancouver, is the
Airzound:

That produces a puny 115db, but works on an unmodified bike. $19CA.

There are a couple of schools of thought on the thing, but from my point of
view it doesn't make sense to be the only class of vehicle on the road
lacking a device capable of being heard by all other road users. Ding bells
are great for alerting pedestrians but don't really cut through the metal
of, say, an SUV cab with blaring heavy metal tunes inside, as is often
necessary. However, I'm a fucking asshole, and thus may not properly sense
the cultural nuances that make this device a poor choice.
