Title: best radrunner mirrors yet?
Post by: wkindred on June 16, 2021, 07:50:15 AM
while riding my juiced hyperscorpion over the course of several months and enjoying the benefits of the large motorcycle-style mirrors, i started to ponder how well these same mirrors would work on my rad power radrunner.

i had tried several available mirrors on the radrunner from a custom-modified version of the mirrycle bar-end mirror through 3 iterations of hafney mirrors over the past 14 months...none seemed to be a completely satisfactory option.

...then i ordered the juiced hyperscorpion mirrors.

i love these things - best mirrors for the radrunner yet, in my opinion!

inexpensive - $20 (plus $8 shipping).

secure, direct fit - bolted right up in a couple minutes.

large field of view - right in the sweet spot for me.

...and look cool!

(...and speaking of cool, note the himiway ebike headlight mounted motorcycle-style in the photos. will be reviewing this headlight vs the rad premium headlight in a near-future post).

Nice.  I like your headlight mounting location.

I suppose my only question would be how many people have tripped over that post (sprinkler?) sticking out of the concrete?

the headlight is the himiway "ebike headlight" available here -

https://himiwaybike.com/products/ebike-headlight

i used $29 in free gear codes himiway has provided to ryan (forum admin) to purchase the headlight -

https://www.radowners.com/index.php?topic=801.msg3990#msg3990

brighter and wider field of view than the rad "premium headlight".

requires a connector swap (opposite) and polarity reversal when wiring to headlight's circuit board.

i'll be doing a comparison review of the 2 headlights in the near future.
