I've been using the Take a-Look mirror for over a year now and won't go out for a ride without it. I like the idea of the pliable shaft on the Flashback RVM because it should be able to have a more custom fit on a wider range of eyewear. However, one problem I've had was that the ball and socket mirror tended to get too loose (3rd Eye) and not hold its position well. Don't know if that would be the case with this one.
