Blackburn Road Bike Mirror
An essential measure for any safety-conscious biker, the Blackburn Road Mirror will help ensure that you can keep track of what is coming up behind you. The Road Mirror is constructed with a durable frame with an L-shaped design for convenient viewing, and fits on any standard road brake hood. Blackburn's Road oval-shaped mirror is mounted on a swivel so you can adjust your viewing angle, and comes with a limited lifetime warranty. About Blackburn In 1975, Jim Blackburn set out to design stronger, lighter, more innovative and more reliable cycling products. The first were bags and racks designed for touring. From there, Blackburn grew. Over the next 30 years, Blackburn's spark of innovation would lead to many revolutionary products, like the first high quality aircraft aluminum rack, the first dual stroke minipump, the first oversized mountain minipump and the first dual stage/dual stroke floorpump just to name a few. For 2005, Blackburn's creative spark is burning brighter than ever. And as we head into our 30th year, Blackburn is re-dedicated to designing smart, reliable, no nonsense accessories that are essential to your riding experience. more

This mirror is great for fast riding in an urban environment. When properly mounted it allows you to check for traffic coming up from behind with just a glance while keeping your eyes on the road ahead to avoid getting "doored". It fits perfectly on the Ultegra STI brakehood on my Trek Madone 5.2...

Blackburn mirror a blur
I used the Blackburn Brakehood mirror for one ride. As stated is other review, I could not see a thing until I was almost at a stop or riding on a road that was as smooth as glass.I think the plastic is waaaay to thin and flexible. The mirror wobbled all over the place. I had the velcro pulled...

Not happy
This mirror, although the position is good when riding, is not practical. I was constantly trying to avoid hitting the mirror against anything such as a wall, pole or anything else. This is because it sticks out so much from the handlebars. You cannot flip your bike upside down to work on it with...

Rattles all over the place
The velcro strap simply doesn't hold the mirror securely. You can see behind you only when you come to a complete halt.
