Hafny Bar End Bike Mirror, HD, Blast-Resistant, Glass Mirror, HF- MR090

These mirrors are ABSOLUTELY INCREDIBLE! I did not want big mirrors or those itty bitty ones either, papa bear said these are just right. Yes, they are on the higher price point of similar mirrors BUT, classic example of "you get what you pay for"! The glass quality is automotive top grade. The stainless adjusting screws overall quality are the best I've seen and owned many. I put these on my 2018 electric fat tire mountain bike and they are as good if not better than my mirrors on my $50k Harley. It's rare for me to rave especially about bike mirrors, but when I look for something specific and it surpasses my expectations, I think the seller deserves the excellent feedback and sells the daylights out of them. I bought two one for each side.

I've tried half a dozen other handlebar mounted mirrors on my bicycles over the years, and Hafny is still the best of the lot.It has a decent field of view, is fairly adjustable, reflects good image quality (both glass or stainless), and most of all is compact and stays out of the way. Tried too many other mirrors that protruded out too far, or had an awkward field of view, or barely reflected enough light to be useful, or didn't adjust nicely.The Hafny's "automotive grade" glass is quite durable, copes with scratches and moderate use. The stainless version is even better with tough use. But it loses a half star because the rest of the plastic structure isn't equally durable. There's one (almost invisible) seam in the outer ring that becomes a break point in case of impact -- which the mirror is obviously prone to absorbing in a fall because it is at the outer end of the handlebar. When it breaks, it really breaks -- it's hard to put the flimsy bits back together with glue or tape even temporarily. You can't expect much more for the price, but it would have been nice if it degraded more gracefully -- I would prefer a metal ring that bends or dents rather than splits, so it could be repaired at least temporarily. Or if the glass was designed to attach at the center (which is more protected) rather than be bracketed by a vulnerable outer ring. But keep in mind it's comparable in durability to pretty much every other mirror product out there.While the field of view is decent and the ball-joint adjustability is good enough (not quite 360°), I still find myself twisting it to its limits and wishing I could turn it inwards or upwards another five or ten degrees for the perfect angle. It's flexible, but not as flexible as a gooseneck mount. A second ball joint would probably help for fine adjustment. But this is still a better situation than any other mirror I've tried since the angles work at least 95% of the time. It also holds up well in bumpy conditions and still remains adjustable by hand even when the screw is tightened fully.I recently switched to the anti-glare version (after irreparably breaking a previous Hafny stainless steel mirror bracket). The anti-glare glass is really effective in bright light, but note it is a bluer and very slightly dimmer image. It's not enough of a difference to matter to most people in darker conditions, and the anti-glare effect is worthwhile otherwise. But if you ride a lot at night or your eyesight demands a brighter image, consider the regular glass or stainless steel mirror.

Ive been using a sprintech drop bar mirror which is considerably smaller then this hafny on my first road bike for about a year now (and it's worked great, with no complaints). So i got a new / second road bike and decided to try out the larger Hafny bar end mirror and its worked out better than expected. I would really prefer no mirror but I live on mountainous roads which are narrow, hilly, and twisty, so looking back is not always the best optionI love that you can adjust and then tighten with allen key to hold position. I leave mine slightly loose to allow for adjustments and bumps on objects when off my bike. even though this is larger view mirror, its not too large. My knees never come close to hitting the mirror at any turn radius on my bike. the larger mirror makes it It easier to view cars from behind than the smaller spintech on my other road bike. With that said I still find myself adjusting angles here and there as my posture changes on longer rides.Mine came with a tinted blue lense which I was not aware of when i placed order and thats important to note. I have noticed that the combination of tint and sunglasses makes it harder to view cars, even in bright sunlight. If its overcasty or getting dark you will lose view far quicker than with an untinted lense. I would still buy the blue tinted lense over the non tinted only because it looks pretty and matches the blue accents of my bike. In the winter time when the days shorter and less sunlight I switch over to mountain biking.

I like the mirror, I like the mounting, but it riddles no matter how tight I make it.I just can not ride with it riddling!Can someone please help me? Update: Hafy sent me a replacement mirror and this one work. No more riddling.Now it should receive 5 stars but I'm leaving is at 1 so if someone is having the same problem I think they mite be more likely to read this review.

First of all these mirrors are a bit pricey for my budget, but I got them because they are glass, flat and absolutely have no distortion. They do not bounce, shake or otherwise move while riding. When I need to take my bicycle through a door, or when I park it at the grocery store; I simple fold them up and when I get ready to go I just fold them straight down into position and they are good to go; no readjustment required. I have my left mirror adjusted to keep an eye on vehicles coming up on my left and my right mirror aimed directly behind me to stay aware of other cyclist coming up behind me in the bicycle lane. To sum it all up; these mirrors are great and I would recommend them very highly.

This is a great bonus for cycling in cities and traffic, while it is smaller than I would have preferred the glass is excellent giving a clear view, much better than others I have seen, it is also rock solid no movement or vibration at all and very easy to install.I thought it would have been bigger and maybe the manufacturer might make a bigger one I can also see the argument for limiting the size where vehicles are close by.I am very happy I purchased this and should have done so before, it is invaluable in heavy traffic which is my commute.I followed carefully the reviews before deciding as I had bought others which were very disappointing and really useless.UpdateHaving used this for some months I continue to be impressed as I can fold it out of the way if necessary and easily position it again without tightening which I had not expected

This product is awsome, you really do get what you pay for. I’ve used a Zefal spin mirror in the past but this is soo much better. The quality is superior, the mirror is screwed and fixed into place (unlike the Zefal which kept moving and coming loose) and the actual mirror is the perfect size. Not too big but big enough to get a great view of road behind you. I recommend this.

Very useful mirror, clearly see what's behind you.Stable, and vibration free.Recommended.

I’ve bought 6 or 7 of these mirrors fir road bikesThis is by far the bestWhy?Easy to fit / mirror stays in place / vibration proof / excellent visibility

Pleased with this mirror it gives you a good view of traffic behind. The mirror can be easily moved to the correct angle and stays where it's put. Vision is not distorted by vibration.Very easy to fit.

I've had a few bike mirrors this has the best view and most importantly doesn't move it's set and forget unlike the others I've tried

well made bike mirror. Perfect for my folding bike

easy to fit and give a clear rear view , no vibrations

Super quality mirror. Easy install, lots of adjustment to get the right position.

Really pleased with this bike mirror. Works a treat stops me falling off the bike when turning round.

Fits well and look good, doesn’t seem to shake as much as others with thin arms.

Quality and perfect for the urban commuter / traveler.

One of the best bike mirrors you can get

I intend to buy another one for wife's bike.
