ProsHigh quality and gives a wide rear view.
Excellent quality product and works perfectly on the bar end of my drops. I have the 50mm mirrors without the arm on my other bikes which are neater in appearance but the 80mm gives a far wider field of view, and gives me greater confidence at a glance that I have not missed anything.

Such a large mirror on drop bars does look a little odd but I feel much safer with the clear view of the road behind. I can see at glance if it is safe to pull out to miss a pothole or a bit of debris. The short arm gives grater flexibility of positioning than my others without the arm. Works perfect for me as I have trouble twisting around these days.
Difficult to adjust when in motion

ConsAdjustment is very sensitive so not easy to make a minor change when in motion.
ProsGood field of vision
As a senior returning to cycling after several decades I felt nervous when wanting to look over my shoulder to check on traffic before attempting a manoevre. Overall I feel much safer with the rear view mirror but found it VERY hard to make a minor adjustment while in motion, usually losing the required field of vision completely for a moment but today was my first day. A little bit fiddly to install.

I bought this mirror as a replacement for the one I had on the tandem for approx 16 years.
It wouldn't fit as I wanted but the jubilee clip which came with the mirror made a very good fit.
We have only used the tandem a couple of times since I fitted the mirror but found the mirror very good.

ProsQuality, design and safety
I have been using a smaller Busch and Muller mirror up until now, and the quality has been excellent, I have just needed to tighten up the bolt from time to time, hardly surprising though as it get wiggled about when I turn it in to park up. I wanted to try a bigger one though and this is brilliant for seeing what's behind. The quality is excellent. I bought two, one for a Moulton and one for a Thorn. As they fit in the end of the handlebar end fitting is easy and I am managing to use the mirror in conjunction with a paint of Ergon grips on the Moulton.

The acid test is if it went missing would I replace it? Immediately!

Fit with Ergon grips?

Will this fit with Ergon GP5 rohloff grips?
Kind regards,
John

The GP5 has a stop, meaning you cannot just slide the grip inward; if you modified the grip, removing the stop, yes you could fit this.

We would suggest this though - SJS Cycles part number : 49857
