I'm a "newbie", so hope I post this question clearly. We just bought a used tandem TT, it comes with a mirror, but it is in the back, doesn't do the stoker ( or me) much good, since he is blind. :eek::eek: I don't know how I could adapt it to use in the front, because my shifter in on the top of my OSS stalk. (or is is called a handle??) Without thinking I bought a mirror that fits on a DF, not gonna work with the TT. I need mirrors that work for me. Any suggestions?

Thanks,
TP:eek:

I use a helmet visor-mounted Take a Look on my upright tandem. Would that work?

There's also an eyeglass-mounted version.

Blackburn has a mirror (https://www.terratrike.com/shop/accessories/rear-view-mirror-blackburn/prod_55.html)that mounts well with your shifters.
