Bike Peddler Take A Look Cycling Eyeglass Mirror Helmet Adaptor Kit Review

First off, I love the Take A Look mirror. I recommend that product without reservation.

That said, this adapter did not work on my Atmos. The positioning of the straps and support system on that particular lid won't let me mount the adapter in any usable position. But I am not going to base my product score on that. I think helmet designs are diverse enough that it would be nearly impossible to design a simple adapter that worked on all of them.

But about the adapter, it is just a small piece of plastic with mounting adhesive. It is transparent so it won't be an eyesore when the mirror is not mounted. Simple and effective design. Can't say much more about it.

I like the idea of having the option to mount the mirror on my glasses or helmet, and if this product would mount on my hardhat, it would be well worth the price and I would use it and love it. Sorry to report that I cannot use it. I will just continue mounting the excellent mirror on my sunglasses.

Blackburn Bike Helmet Mirror Review

I have to agree that the mirror 'arm' is too short.

However, my helmet is one of the larger made.
(Bell Faction Dave Mirra Multi-Sport)

I also think I should have purchased a mirror with a larger diameter.

Since the mirror arm and mount adjustment socket-balls have such
a limited range of movement, I had a very limited choice in where
the mirror base (double-sided-sticky) could be installed.

I have to look way up and left to see the mirror, and
that might take a lot of getting used to.
Had I been able to mount it lower, it would be easier
to use (without rolling my eyes so far over).While out riding today, I found that the mirror can be removed
from it's base. Built into the flat mounting section, there
are two little 'snaps' that hold two segments together.
While I was reaching up trying to adjust my view,
the whole thing popped off in my hand.
I snapped it back on later when we stopped for ice cream. :)

There is much more vibration ( = fuzzy vision) than
is seen in my handlebar mounted (Blackburn) mirror.

If you ride on bumpy roads a lot, forget this mirror!

If I get another one, It will be bigger and have a longer arm.
