I've got about 60 degree range of motion (L-R) at neck so without the mirrors I couldn't even ride.

I think the rear view video would be a cool thing to have as well.

Default Re: rear view mirrors

I got a bunch of the old-style "pyramid" drag bike mirrors off eBuy. I like the style, they're cheap (At about $15 a pair), they have glass lenses with a steel body and dual reflectors. Got one on the left of my Huffy and a pair of them on my Schwinn. Tried Bar end mirrors on the Schwinn for a while, but I cracked one while moving it in the garage, and the other was obliterated when a gust of wind blew the bike over on a camping trip. I much prefer having a few inches of handlebar sticking out to take any impacts instead of my mirrors. Besides, my arms kept getting in the way of using the bar end mirrors. >.<

Keep on riding! ~Dakota Lynx
