Would Not Ride Without It!Jul 27, 2010 What....was I really tossing my neck from side to side on every bike ride ?!? This mirror works great and I feel so much safer on my rides...plus the neck pain is now a thing of the past!
Nice!Jul 26, 2010 Mirror is of good quality and works great on my Schwinn Hybrid. Very easy to install. You have to cut the end out of your hand grip. I used a new blade in my razor knife and it looks good. Easy to fold back for tight spots/storage etc. and easy to re-adjust while riding if need to.
best bike miror on the marketJul 26, 2010 The Mirrycycle bar end bike mirror is the best bicycle mirror on the market for the money.
Miracle, No, but pretty darned good!Jul 23, 2010 I ordered a pair of these mirrors, and was pleasantly surprised to find they were glass, not cheap, fuzzy acrylic. Though I may come to regret it, if the bike gets knocked over and the mirrors break. You can buy the mirrors, separately, as well as the bits of mountings, arms, etc. if they do break. The mounts are fully adjustable by loosening a few screws, and tightening them with a provided Allen (hex) wrench. You can tighten them enough to make them immobile, or leave them looser to adjust them while riding. I wouldn't have minded a nice set of mirrors like this on my motorcycle, back in the day.
I ordered these a few days ago, and mounted them immediately, the only problem was not a fault of the mirrors but a fault of the cheap bar end plugs. When I attempted to remove them, to mount the mirrors, one broke off, and left the stump of the plug still in the handlebars. I was able to pry it out (screwdriver in the thru-hole). These do come with very clear mounting instructions, in English only. If you read Spanish, French, German, instead of English? You are Short On Luck, though the illustrations are quite clear. Where you see 3 washers put three washers, if you see one, put one. The only decision you need to make is whether to use the larger or smaller piece in the mechanism. Use the smaller if you have typical MTB bars, larger if you have bigger bars. If your bars are huge you may need to insert rubber, to make them fit.
Clean clear mirrors, simple mounts, repair parts available, obvious instructions (with line drawings in case you DON'T read English.) What's not to like? Well if break soon, it would be a pain, but the mounts/arms are structural engineering grade plastic, very light and strong, so I expect they will be fine.I'll come back in a year or two and let you know.
Bicycle mirrorJul 16, 2010 This is a nice mirror for my Trek bicycle. Not all mirrors will work for my bike. It lets me know if people are coming up from behind to pass.
