rear view mirrors

[paul]

would like a little input here. i believe a rear view mirror is very important on our bikes but still trying to find a good one. the one i have now straps on the grip with Velcro and of course spins and i am not real happy with it. i have seen ones that you clamp to the handle bars and ones that go into the bars like a plug. what is the best way to go?

Have you looked at motorcycle mirrors? They come in hundreds of styles and can handle vibrations like no other. Here is a link to a motorcycle aftermarket parts warehouse superstor thingamajigger...

This is the one I put on my bike. I like the looks and it is very functional. Traveling in the bike lane I needed a Left hand mirror. If you do choose a mirror, make sure it is for the side you need. Some are universal and some are designated left hand or right hand.CHROME BLADE MIRROR CHOPPER MOTORCYCLE BICYCLE NEW HD - eBay (item 310013131767 end time Jan-13-08 18:03:57 PST)

Here's the back side of my mirror its suppost to be unbreakable the mirror is but the housing ain't and for the right side which I'm using on the left cause I like it low. I got 2 of them from fleabay cheap I relly like them and as you can see easy to mount. Look close and you can see the superglue repair.

I was in Wal mart the other day and noticed they sell rear view mirrors for bikes (Bell brand)
It looked like they were a strap on design (velcro).

Looked to be a wide angle mirror but kinda small....might be hard to see with all the vibrations?

Hi just so you-all know, Whizzer uses small long-neck motorcycle mirrors, which thread into the control sets but could easily use a strap around the bars.

Small sized motorcycle mirrors, or moped mirrors will work nicely.

I also have a bicycle thing that clips on eyeglasses, kinda cool, kinda wierd.

I got reamed... I paid 14 bucks for the same thing.

Plastic bar end mount with reflective mylar instead of glass. Oh well. At least I can vaguely see through it.
