Spurcycle Handlebar Mirror
We believe in mirrors like we believe in bells. Ride with one for a week and you'll never again want to do without.
Our R-series is available in two mirror sizes to fit drop bar bikes, a 35mm and a 50mm diameter. They both provide a very similar view but the smaller mirror is more challenging to use, a tradeoff for the sake of minimal form. We consider the R35 our "pro" (vanity) mirror and the R50 our everyday touring model.
Designed to complement a modern drop bar bicycle. Not compatible with extreme bar geometries or positions. Some Enve bars and others without standard bar plugs also may not work.
Our C-series is available in two mirror sizes, a 50mm and a 70mm diameter. They both provide a very similar view but the smaller mirror shrinks the image a little to achieve a more trimmed down overall form.
Designed with "city" bikes in mind. Not for drop bars. Requires access to the bar end, which might require grip modification. Not compatible with full sweep bars.

Get One! Another Safety Game Changer!
My Garmin Varia Radar was a game changer, so much so that I won’t ride without one! This little inexpensive mirror is even more of a game changer. I use both on my rides. The radar lets you know if there is something behind you and gives you an idea about how close and how fast they are approaching but this little jewel lets you know pretty much everything that is going on and for a good distance. It is a HUGE “bang for your buck” concerning safety! It looks nice, very discreet, and the build quality is excellent and only adds a little weight to your ride. I chose the 50 mm size and I can see in detail, so I can’t speak for the 35mm version. A while back I tried a helmet mirror, told myself that I was going to give it time to get used to it but I absolutely hated it, I found that it was very difficult to position ones head so you could actually consistently see what was behind so I removed it on the first ride…I DID NOT LIKE IT! Not so with the handlebar mirror. I was super pleased with it on my first ride and it has become “a part of me” so I now use it without really giving it a thought. Some folks consider things like this a little “uncool” I suppose? For the price, it is worth a try. Even if you ended up not keeping it on your bike, but would be surprised if you didn’t.
