Title: a mirror for my Rad Rover 6 Plus Step-thru.
Post by: radgranddad on September 17, 2021, 10:25:04 AM
The kink in my neck today tells me I need to look into a mirror for my Rad Rover 6 Plus Step-thru.  No pun intended.
Rad has a mirror of course, but that mirror is compatible with all ebike models except RadRover 6 Plus and RadRover 6 Plus Step-Thru.
I'm guessing that is due to the fact most of the handlebar space is taken up with the grip, brake and UI Remote.

I know there are mirrors that attach via the ends of the handlebars, but was hoping to avoid that method since the storage I have for the bike would make that a prime candidate for getting whacked when I store it.

Any ideas?

They fold in real easy. Then just unfold. Takes a second.

Very nice!
Thanks much for The simple solution. I guess I wasn't thinking about the fact that they could fold in.
Cheers!

I do it all the time and they stay tight.

I have two Mirrycle mirrors on my MiniST and they're amazingly rugged and adjustable without loosening up.  Mine are mounted differently due to the need to clear between a tree and a fence at a neighborhood trailhead.

Big thanks.

Purchased Mirrycle MTB Bar End Mountain Bicycle Mirror, delivered today, installed and tested this evening. 

Bang.

Issue solved and no more stiff neck.  At least from that... ::)
