Sports reviews of Sprintech Drop Bar Mirror , Black, Pair

Customer Review: Sprintech Drop Bar Mirror
Sport shop rating: 5 Stars

Naturally, this entire review is personal opinion, but I've tried several bikes and helmet mirrors for my road bike and never found any worth keeping before the Sprintech. Despite positive reviews I hesitated to buy it because so many bike mirrors just don't seem to work. Either their field of view is too narrow and you can't see approaching dangers, so wide that the danger is there but too small to see, or it takes so much effort to focus on the mirror that you're blind to what's ahead of you for too long.

The Sprintech is different. It works just the way a road cyclist needs. You can QUICKLY glance down and see what's approaching from behind. For me its field of view is wide enough that it will reflect just about anything that's a danger, but narrow enough so that said danger isn't so small that it's nearly invisible. (Keep in mind there is some distortion like in any wide angle mirror, so objects are closer than they appear, but the important thing is you can see that approaching car.) Just like when driving you're going to want to glance over your shoulder before changing lanes just to be sure.

At first I doubted that a mirror in that position, where the bar plug goes, would be useful. I was wrong. It's a well thought out piece of engineering. It's simple to install- requires only minutes, but does require a bit of muscle. This allows it to stay in place over incredibly bumpy roads without needing to readjust it. Last but not least are the aesthetics. Most road bikers don't like to kludge up their sleek machines or add anything that adds aerodynamic drag. The Sprintech is fairly small and looks good.

It also comes in a left mirror only configuration Sprintech Left Drop Bar Mirror, Red Sprintech Road Bicycle Drop Bar Mirror. I only bought the pair because I have two road bikes and wanted a left side mirror on both. While it does mean my 'B' bike has a right side mirror on the left, it seems to work just fine.
