Road Cycling “It is by riding a bicycle that you learn the contours of a country best, since you have to sweat up the hills and coast down them. Thus you remember them as they actually are, while in a motor car only a high hill impresses you, and you have no such accurate remembrance of country you have driven through as you gain by riding a bicycle.” -- Ernest Hemingway

A local shop that just opened stocked the Sprintech mirror. I purchased one and tried it that day. I am glad I did. Installs easily, easily adjusted, and does not vibrate. Gives good field of vision. I will use it more and then evaluate whether to use it solely or in conjunction with my third eye. I think that if I get one for the right side I will probably do away with the third eye.

I just watched the video and was impressed. I think I will try a pair. Thanks!

Probably will get a "Take A Look Mirror" also. I think I will try these first though. Do you use anything in addition to the Sprintech? Can you use them while riding in the drops?
That mirror must really work! Dude did the whole ride with no helmet! He must really feel safe!

Do not have the exact one posted but a similar model from Biketiresdirect.com. I have tried every mirror known to man and that is the only thing that works for me. Could not find the sweet spot with several helmet mirrors.
