I've been riding this bike with this mirror for the past week or so.
The positioning is pretty good- this puts a mirror relatively close to where I wanted it. As
jlaw mentioned, the mirror doesn't move much- it doesn't droop much after its set, and it's a pretty stable mirror.
However, as I mentioned before- it has a really large field of vision of things I don't care so much about. Because of the curve of the mirror, it's not giving you a lot of detail- even in the big part of the mirror. And because of the curve you can see high into the sky AND down under your BB.
noglider the mirror can't be oriented differently- it's fixed in relation to the bar- so you can't orient the mirror horizontally without mounting the mirror in a different location.
