I've had a few Third Eye Pro helmet mounts, 2 glue ons, 2 visor mounts. I really like the visor mounts, only trouble seems to be when I drop the helmet, it tends to land on the mirror and snap it off. The glue on mounts stay on pretty well, but my present helmet doesn't seem to have many flat areas to put it on.
I've tried handlebar mounts, found they vibrate too much and require a long look down to see what's behind you. The helmet mount just needs a quick glance and is the best for checking on ramps (turn your head to the left and you can see any traffic on the on ramp behind you) The bar mounted mirrors just can't match the dorkiness factor a helmet mount provides. The visor mounted models are shorter and don't seem to stick out as much as the glue on models.
I'm a special needs person when it comes to bike mirrors - if I turn my head to look behind me, my next look forward finds me and the bike pointing in a different direction. I'm dangerous without a mirror!
