Maybe you've already found what you're looking for with the mirror mounted on glasses. However, if you're still interested in the bar-end mirrors, they're readily available on ebay and lots of other sources. I've been using them since June and really like them. I've had just two problems with them: 1) the right side mirror kept dropping down to the useless point any time I hit rough asphalt and 2) either knee can knock a mirror out of position pretty easily. I discovered that the first problem was due to not having the bar end/mirror holder pushed all the way in. Problem solved. The other problem I've solved by being more careful about where I put my knees. The best part about the dual bar-end mirrors is that 8/10 people don't even notice them.

I thought that the bar-end mirrors is what I wanted. Several people on this forum recommended the glasses mounted mirror and I purchased one. It does work when it is adjusted correctly and the image in the mirror doesn't bounce. I do have to adjust the mirror correctly each time I put it on my sunglasses which is a little difficult, but the process will probably improve in time.

I have two concerns with the bar-end mirrors. One is that I have to rewrap the bars; I wanted mirrors that just replaced the plugs, but I haven't found any mirrors like that. Two, that they would bounce so much that I couldn't use them.

I may eventually try to use both mirror systems.

Thanks for the feedback,

Bruce
