Sparrow bar mirror options
I put sparrow bars on my Terry Classic. Love them and love the bike for riding around town. I'd like a mirror. Any ideas for a mirror that would work on sparrow bars?

You can use a Mountain Mirrycle mirror with those bars. You have to play with it a bit to get the angle just right (and it kills the aesthetics), but it's a great mirror.

if you wear glasses, or feel like having it on your helmet, the take a look is nice... just got mine in the mail today and it seems way more durable than it looks. I still may wrap tape around it, but it would do fine without it.

I never have really liked the Take-a-look type mirrors. Maybe because I've lost a couple. 
I do like the Mirrycle mirror and have one on another bike. I didn't think it would work on the sparrow bars but it looks like it might be fine. Thanks for the picture.
