Use whatever works for you.

I'm a helmet mirror fan. It is always lined up. I can swing my head to the left to really look behind and as I'm doing it I can see in the mirror what is on my right. Also in a turn I can keep my eyes on the road but move my head to keep track of what is behind.

Also I have five bikes and two helmets so a helmet mirror costs less .

Handlebar and frame mounts can be a pain to ride behind in a tour when the sun is at the angle that hits the mirror and is in the riders eyes who is behind.

If you like the mirror and you use it doesn’t matter if it is frame, handlebar, helmet, or eyeglass mounted.
