Best thing I've ever tried

Driving with a Take-A-Look mirror since 2008. On my second mirror since the first, I died spilling on an icy bike path in Anchorage. The helmet saved my brain, by the way. It is attached to the helmet with an adapter, which makes the mirror very stable. I've tried it on my glasses but it seems to throw me off balance. When the bike path ends, I pull into the main traffic at four points on my daily commute, it's very easy to "see" what's going on behind me. I'm a daily passenger, now I drive 34โ€ฆ

  • This is amazing

The best of a bad crowd. Could have been a better mount

I have used several bike mirrors on my glasses over the years and keep coming back to this one although it is far from perfect. The glasses could be improved. This mirror attaches fairly well to standard goggles, but may not hold securely to cycling glasses with curved temples. However, until someone finds the best bike mirror for glasses, I recommend this. There is another good mirror to compete with this one that uses a plastic mount called the "Third Eye". Plastic fasteners fatigue andโ€ฆ

  • Does not fit all

If you're used to this style then it's fine

I'm almost seventy and my last experience of riding a bike (not counting motorcycles) was in early adulthood. I've never had a rearview mirror on a motorcycle. Since this product is relatively cheap, I figured it's worth a try, even if I don't like it. If you've already ridden with glasses or a helmet with rear-view mirrors on and are used to it, this might be "just the ticket". Whatever it is, it works as advertised. Common sense should have told me what challenges this mirror would have, andโ€ฆ

Very helpful! for accessories

Very useful! Easily attaches to my glasses. However, it's almost too heavy for them and can cause them to slip off my nose, other than wearing them with a helmet and the helmet straps help hold them in place. The mirror is very easy to adjust. It also makes it easy to take them off your glasses, adjust the mirror to be flat, and slip them in your pocket or bag. It took me a little time to learn how to use it properly. I get a little nervous because sometimes I'm so focused on what's behind meโ€ฆ

The best bike mirror I've ever had!

This is by far the best goggle/helmet mount bike rear view mirror I have ever owned and I have used about a dozen others. Reasons I like it this way: Highly adjustable right and left, goggle mount or helmet mount the metal can be bent in certain places to fit exactly (plastic versions cannot be bent) stronger than plastic versions which are more prone to breakage - Can be folded to Folds perfectly flat for storage (I don't know of any other mirror like this that folds completely so you can putโ€ฆ

Pros
  • Weight
Cons
  • New competitors have arrived

Original or compact?

The most frequently asked question: what to choose, the original or the compact version? The original model mirror measures approximately 37mm x 29mm with an 81mm fitting. The compact dimensions are approximately 37mm x 18mm with 46mm anchor. (See photos for dimensions.) So the original is 61% larger than the compact, but 76% further from the attachment point.1. Because the original is farther from the eyes, it's a little easier to focus on. Most people have no problem focusing with any mirror,

Pros
  • A sea of positive emotions
Cons
  • Modernity

Look who goes: Sports

So I've seen bikers with little helmet mounts and sunglasses that double as rear view mirrors and I've always wondered how well they work. I do quite a bit of track and trail cycling as I avoid roads (and cars) as much as possible. That being said, some of my rides take me outside where I worry about the cars behind me, especially when I have to make left turns. As usual, Revain had a solution to my problem. After looking at several options, I settled on this particular bike mirror and took the
