Was waiting on having to buy a 60 quid clamp on oberon, but today bastardised an bolanger push bike water carrier and the HK ripp offs to achieve the solution i want for handlebar bar end rngs, filtering / filth avoidance, and getting through gates.

Went for a spin, and does the job as intended. Thumbs Up Idea

Have to ask. Was the intention to hide the clocks? As that appears to be the result.

It's definitely mounted at the wrong angle. I can't see it being much us as is, unless it's his make up mirror Wink

A ginger bloke who happens to be a member overs the years happened upon the idea whilst making eggs.

The scan is a great makeup mirror, and whoever said the other mirror is on wrong is a fucking retard. My build and height and the bike upright is what the mirror is set at, well bent to. Cool

It allows rear view under the arm, for spotting filthy coppers and ped boys.

Thumbs Up

My mistake, anyone who can afford to throw away £30 on a convex mirror because they're incapable of doing a life saver clearly has more money than sense and so isn't likely to understand my comment above and besides; Speed cameras and £60 fines would be of no consequence to someone that thick... affluent.

It's not supposed to be a substitute for shoulder checks. It just gives you a very good view of behind you at all times and for quite a wide angle. It's a bit childish to claim it's anything other than helpful.

I used to prefer riding without mirrors, now I wouldn't be without them. I do see where you are coming from though.

That's 2 confused for you now, if you explain yourself in less than a thousand words I may understand, although I don't want to hear about your grandad in the war or the thickness of a tank wall.

Cheers ginge.
