HafnyBar End Bike Mirror, Unbreakable Stainless Steel Lens, Safe Rearview Mirror, (62mm Stainless Steel Lens)

Another day I was crossing Catford Bridge in London, a curved bridge, and this huge lorry passed by me; I could feel the wind coming from the big wheels. One little mistake and I would fall under the lorry. I immediately thought that if I had seen that lorry in advance, I wouldn't try to cross the bridge along with it. So I purchased this mirror, and I can say it's fantastic. The stainless steel mirror gives a beautiful and clear view. I also bought two other popular mirrors. The Corky Urban Mirror is lovely, but it's too tiny, and vehicles seem far away when they are very close; I didn't like that. I also purchased the Peddler Take a Look Compact Mirror which you can use on your glasses or helmet, but because my vision has been failing to see things close, this mirror didn't work for me, but it's an excellent mirror if you have good vision or use prescription glasses. I'm so happy with this Hafny Bar End Bike Mirror! Thank you for creating this superb product.

I've just started cycling at a 'mature' age and haven't yet developed that balance to be able to fully look over my shoulder in traffic so this is a great help.It's easy to fit and includes sleeve for larger diameter handlebars. I have drop bars and this fit nicely on the end with the mirror twisted out to the side. The mirror is clear and gives a good view of approaching traffic. I feel much happier and more confident having it.

This mirror fits perfectly into drop handlebar ends and provides a great field of view thanks to it being convex and reasonable diameter. I did use some flat rubber to make the fit more secure.When it comes to fixing the mirror to the handle bar attachment do not over tighten the clamp that holds the thin stalk on the mirror as it looks like it will easily snap if knocked (it's poorly designed and far to thin and should really be reinforced with metal or just thicker); tighten so that it just grips the stalk providing a bit of resistance while allowing a small amount of adjustment as this will minimise the risk of breakage while still preventing annoying vibration of the image when on the move.The only disappointment is the reflective surface that is so easily scratched. Do not be tempted to wipe with a finger or back of a glove as it will scratch, even using a clean tissue left a feint spiral. While the mirror is relatively new this does not impact on the image quality but I imagine in a couple of months it's likely to be an issue...not great as this isn't a cheap mirror and I wish I'd gone for the HD glass version.

I bought this after starting to cycle again and not confident to turn my head to see what traffic was behind me. This mirror has transformed that. It's very easy to fit on the end of the handle bars, and easy to twist to the correct position to see behind. I like that it folds under the handle bar when you store the bike away so it doesn't get knocked. I have found it very stable so it is easy to see the cars behind. I would highly recommend it for cyclists like me who are nervous in traffic. It really helps to know what is behind you.

How did I ever cycle country lanes without this? Certainly not a substitute for a look over your shoulder before turning etc. but improves situational awareness. The body is made of plastic but a good quality plastic, and the mirror folds back easily to prevent damage, the mirror is big enough to see behind without being that big that I would worry about extra drag. A doddle to fit with just a single allen key required, although you may need to cut a hole in the end of your bar grip like I did.

My old bike had a mounted mirror on the frame, which did the job in general. I've always found a mirror vital in city riding, just like I would when driving, because a quick glance now and then keeps you aware and, in turn, safer. That mirror went with the old bike when it got stolen unfortunately.When I got my new bike I felt blind without a rearview mirror. After a couple of cheaper sub-tenner purchases (what a waste) I decided to pay a tiny bit more and it's worth it. Once installed, it's really easy to tighten so that it stays firm and at the right angle, even after miles of rough road and gravel. I'm really pleased and how anyone cycles without some sort of decent mirror is beyond me.

Fits the Ergon GP3 grip on my Brompton. Just drilled a hole and it fits really well.

Well made item,easy to fit,quite small in size.
