Accessories

Hi everyone,
I was just given a Schwinn Crosscut (hybrid) and wanted to start buying accessories for it. One of the items I seem to have a hard time finding is a affordable front rack. The handle bars are also in the shape of a figure 8 (sort of) and I'm not sure what kind of mirror will work with it. Thanks in advance for any suggestions you may have.

Helmet mirror?

What kind of racks can your Bike Shop get?

I normally like the bar end mirrors. Never done a helmet mirror (yet) but may if I have to. I Don't currently have a bike shop. Had one 20 or so years ago when I bought my Schwinn Mesa. Bike Store closed, Schwinn got bought by Huffy and started being sold in big box stores. I suppose I should just get over it and find a new one, but I just haven't found one I like.
