Mirrors

[DAMIEN1307]

I was thinking the same but I couldn’t find anything that wasn’t going to cost me $80 or so for two mirrors. I needed to buy two left hand mirrors. One for me and one for my wife’s ebike. I will let you know when I get them

Ive been using these for at least 10 years, when I first bought them they were only 10 bucks though...lol...The only change I made was to the mounting...I got rid of the plastic type handlebar hold downs and instead, used some doubled up plumbers strap with 10 mm nuts on either side of the threaded bar on the end of the mirror shaft to get them nice and tight for extremely little vibration...And there cheap for the pair that will mount on any side, less than 20 bucks.

You mean straps like this? I’m assuming a 3/4 inch emt would have an outside diameter of about 7/8. What if I bent the ears so they were parallel with each other and put the threaded rod through them

A clamp like this might be better
They also come in a L&R set

Here is a pick of how I doubled it up and attached it...Gotta think outside the box...Ready made stuff for our purposes rarely works well for us...lol...Dont forget the spilt ring lock washers...lol.

It would even be nicer to have actual URL links rather than just a picture to find out where to get this ready made clamp...lol...I don't know where this comes from to even think about ordering one...lol.

IDK exactly what clamp someone would want so just search Scooter mirror 8m 7/8" handle bar clamps

I've used those in the past. Even doubled up on them. They're eventually going to break.

They work great on my trikes and don't vibrate. I have tried many plastic mirrors and they are all junk
