Summary: Great mirror at a great price
Comment: This is a great mirror. Just as others have said, very solid with very little shake. No problem seeing what's coming. I had two concerns before buying it. First, I was worried it'd be too concave and distorted. It isn't. It's perfect and images are perfectly clear. Second concern, I was worried that it wouldn't reach out far enough to see around my shoulder on my narrow BikeE recumbent handlebars. Again, no problem. I can easily see around, yet it doesn't stick out too far where it'd hit stuff while trail riding. It was tough enough to take a fall, but I'm sure if it lands just right, (or wrong) where it can't swing out of the way, it'll probably break. Simple solution though. Don't let your bike fall over. Also, assembly is no problem. If you're smart enough to shift gears, you can put it together.

Summary: Like It!
Comment: This replaces a mirror of another type I used for 5 years until it broke. This new mirror was easy to assemble, secure to the handlebar, and to align for the proper sighting angle. The mounting parts have a very solid feel to them when assembled and tightened, and I have not noticed the vibration evident on my old mirror during road rides. I feel I made the right choice in changing to this product. I received the mirror in only 3 days too!

Summary: Very well designed mirror
Comment: I found this mirror extreemly well engineered with excellent instructions for the do it yourselfer. The vibration is minimal and the visibility of the road behind you is excellent. The only tool required to assemble and install the mirror is an allen key which is included in the package. I have a Giant Cypress bike which required getting out a box cutter to cut out the end of the hand grip. After removing that, I found another plug which requred some cutting and then pushing into the handle bar to make room for the mirror mount. From that point on, the installation went very smoothly. The one concern I had while assembling the mirror was that the screws seemed to be crossthreading into the brass inserts of each mating part. If I had read the istructions a little more thoroughly, I would have seen that this was to be expected. It was in bold type but I glossed over it. The brass inserts are designed to grip the screw tightly to prevent the screw from backing out due to road vibration. Again an example of a well engineered design.

Summary: Mirrcycle MTB Bar End Mirror
Comment: This is an excellent product. After installing, I rode 50 miles in rainy weather. It worked well, the mirror did not shake (as previous reviews have stated) and the image was easy to see. The mirror rotates to move out of the way when I put the bike in my car. I highly recommend this product.

Summary: Fantastic design!
Comment: This is a fantastic piece of engineering! When I first put it together, I thought it seemed a bit silly -- why does it take three bolts and half a dozen washers to strap a mirror on to a grip?
Here's why:
* The first bolt runs into your bar end, pulling two plastic wedges over each other to expand into an internal clamp, providing a firm attachment to any size bar end.
* Each other bolt/washer combo is not meant to prevent motion, but rather to allow it: you screw them down firmly enough to prevent slippage, but not so tight that you can't spin the plastic piece: height, horizontal angle and vertical angle. Bloody brilliant! And, if you're a clutz like me, you'll appreciate that this means most impact angles with trees, parked cars and "the ground" just fold the mirror back, like a car mirror, rather than crushing it -- spin it back, and you're back on the trail, no repairs needed.
So: five minutes of installation (read directions, cut hole in rubber grip if necessary, pop out plastic bar end plug, thread three bolts through plastic parts and tighten with the included hex wrench) and you have a mirror large enough to see the entire road/trail/mob behind you that is attached firmly enough not to vibrate or wobble, and can be adjusted one-handed while riding.
Mine was on my bike for less than a day before my wife demanded one for her bike too.
