Being new to the sport of road riding (3 yrs. on a bike,) and also retired, I have an abundent amount of time to ride.

Not wanting to look to much like a Newbie Roadie, I hesitatated with the purchase of a bar end mounted Mirror. But having the ability to see behind my back at a glance, it makes for a safe and easy way to stay out of the way of possible traffic problems as well as watching for an attack by your friends. Sprintech Bar-End Mirrors are very well made and easy to use and live with. In comparison to the helmet mirror, that made me uncomfortable, Sprintech mirrors are a very good choice. I elected to use only one on the left side.

Works well as a preliminary traffic check

I have used these for a few years now, and have found them to be superior to the other bar-end mirrors on the market. They are easy to adjust, relatively stable when installed properly, and reasonably scratch proof. However, I use the mirrors only as a preliminary check for traffic. If traffic appears in the mirror, I wait for it to clear; when no traffic appears in the mirror, I look back to visually confirm that the road is clear before changing lanes. The mirrors are a good substitute for having to look around several times in heavy traffic, but the optics are not sufficient for the final decision to make a lane change. Overall, I feel that the mirrors add to both safety and convenience.

They don't stay adjusted and you'll be constantly readjusting them rather than paying attention to what's ahead.

My wife likes them but I prefer the ones that attach to my bike mirror. The issue w these bar mounts is that they loosen and rotate when the bike hits a speed bump or the like. Eventually they just droop at the end of the bars and cannot be adjusted as the socket joint is too loose.

Didn't work for me.

Mounted easily & that's about it. Mirrors are convex which gives wide field but smaller image. I couldn't see anything until it was on top of me. I tried riding with glasses-mounted mirrors and when I saw something in them would look at the bar end mirrors. Even knowing what was coming I could not pick it up with the bar ends, even in the drops with my face a few inches away. Mine also had trouble holding their adjustment over bumps.

Disappointed

I purchased this mirror especially for times when I am riding in traffic on public streets and roads. Because of its convex style, the mirror makes it difficult to see oncoming traffic until it is right next to you. It would work better if it were a regular mirror rather than convex. This would give you a more accurate view of oncoming traffic.

Inadequate at any price

I have this installed and agree with the other reviewers that it is essentially useless and not something to rely upon. Unless the car behind you is driving with daylight driving lights on, you need to still look over your shoulder to confirm the absence of any cars before you make any movements.

very stable sleek mirror
by Don

I have a couple of these. The image in the mirror is small but it's enough to see a car or a pack of riders coming with just a flick of the eye.

There's a lot less of the vibration you get with other mirrors. I do have to adjust the mirror if I hit a rough section or pothole.

Barely Adequate

By the time you see an automobile behind you in these mirrors, they are only about 30 to 50 feet away. They reduce the size of everything to the point that you can hardly see anything. You can almost hear an approaching car before you see it. The only time you can see an approaching car at a distance is when there is significant glare reflecting off of its windshield, or when they have their lights on.

This mirror is barely adequate - though it's stylish, definitely not for commuting. The view is limited, and could be improved by a quarter to half-inch width. For the budget conscious, don't bother with this. The one thing that is nice, is the easy installation.

These mirrors provide an adequate rear view. I do not rely on them 100% to show me what is behind me but they at the very least capture the big stuff coming towards you. Highly recommended.
