Review on The Beam - CORKY Urban Bike Mirror - Compact Foldable Rear-view Handlebar Mirror - Enhanced Visibility with 360-degree Rotating Convex Lens, Black by Robert Rasmussen

Revainrating 4 out of 5

Great little mirror for electric scooter

I've been looking for a mirror to fit my electric scooter and this seems to be the one. The other options either didn't go over the edge far enough to see past my hands, rumbled too much from road vibrations, or were flimsy and would likely break when the scooter was folded and transported. Corky Urban seems to be handling most of these issues well. Pros: The rubber seal allows for use with a variety of grips, even those that don't end up having holes for side mirrors. Let's get to the other end. Handle to see behind my hands and behind me - Vibrations are minimal so I can see things behind me clearly despite it being a small mirror - Folds up very compactly, much less worry about damaging it Cons: - Also expensive for a small mirror. - It's a small mirror - The screw at the end of the bar solution doesn't work if your bar is longer than the bar unlike other bar end mirrors which are long enough to be tightened well but luckily there is a rubber grommet, which solves this problem (albeit a bit ugly). Make sure you really want to take the rubber pad off because if you decide to put it back on it will be easier for you to fight the alligator.
