About Blackburn
In 1975, Jim Blackburn set out to design stronger, lighter, more innovative and more reliable cycling products. The first were bags and racks designed for touring. From there, Blackburn grew. Over the next 30 years, Blackburn's spark of innovation would lead to many revolutionary products, like the first high quality aircraft aluminum rack, the first dual stroke minipump, the first oversized mountain minipump and the first dual stage/dual stroke floorpump just to name a few. For 2005, Blackburn's creative spark is burning brighter than ever. And as we head into our 30th year, Blackburn is re-dedicated to designing smart, reliable, no nonsense accessories that are essential to your riding experience.

- Took a while to get used to
I ride on suburban back roads (mainly) where there's not too much traffic, but I like to listen to music while riding so I knew I had to know what's coming up behind me. It took me about a week to get used to this mirror. Now I wouldn't want to ride without it. Its the only mirror I've ever used so I can't compare it or really comment on the quality. I've had no problems and the mirror gives me a clear view. Oh yeah, the directions are useless !!

- I can now see what's behind me
I used this mirror for the first time today on a 15mi ride and it worked well. It was easy to attach and adjust, providing a view of what's behind me. It came with 3 double sided adhesive pads, so if one doesn't work, the other 2 should.

- basically worthless
I was extremely disappointed in this mirror. For starters, the arm is just too short. You have to be able to put it on the very front of your helmet in order for the mirror to reach your field of view. On my helmet there isn't a sufficiently large flat area on the front to use the adhesive.

On top of that, they include a two-sided adhesive (on side sticks to the mirror arm, the other to the helmet), but only one side of the adhesive is sufficiently sticky! It would probably work ... Read More

- Needs getting used to, but will work fine.
I bought this after having a handlebar mirror that jiggles all over the place. This one doesn't jiggle, but I'm not sure this is superior. It is nice to be able to see traffic behind you in your peripheral vision without having to consciously check. Looking at the mirror itself gives you a pretty clear picture of the traffic. I think it will work for me eventually as I get used to it, but here's some caveats:

1. You must mount it so that only your left eye can see it. If you mount ... Read More
