Hafny Bar End Bike/Bicycle Mirror, Stainless Steel Lens, Safe Adjustable Rearview Cycle/E-bike Mirror, HF-MR083 (Black 62mm)

I’ve had a couple of other bike mirrors, and I’m liking this more than all the others. It is extremely well-made and very sturdy. The mirror surface is excellent. The mirror is easy to adjust yet stays in place even going over bumpy roads. Compared to the mirrors that stick up and out from the end of the handlebar, this one is compact and unobtrusive.

After reading some critical reviews, I decided to give this product a chance and am glad I did. Here are my observations and comments. It is a sturdy mirror that is very useful for checking for cars or faster cyclists catching up on you. I got a larger size one and it has a wide enough angle of view eliminating the need to turn and twist your neck trying to catch an image. Compared to the third-eye helmet mounted one that I used before it is a huge improvement. Just a quick snap glance gives you the info you need. The quality of the mirror is adequate for the job. Close examination clearly shows that it is not a high-quality surface mirror. But then again it is not designed for astronomy research or close shaving. It does show large objects approaching from behind and that is it. The mirror is slightly convex which does distort the image somewhat. On the upside the curvature also increases the field of view. I am not sure how much it actually helps but does not hurt much either. The mount is very sturdy. I was concerned about annoyingly shaky images caused by mirror vibrations, but it is not a problem at all. The image is easy to read and that is all that matters to me. Installation was easy but did require a 5 mm Allen wrench with is not included. I ended up rotating the insert 180 degrees compared to the recommended picture (drop down offset) because that way on my mountain bike the mirror was partially obstructed by left forearm. Now the mirror sits about an inch or so above the handlebar and it solved the problem. I suspect reviewers who had the mirror break off just over-tightened the screw. If your bike does not have to be put in a rack or loaded into a vehicle then tightening the screw to immobilize the mirror is probably okay. But if the bike needs to be handled, it is safer to play with the screw to make the screw tight enough to securely hold the mirror for the ride, yet light enough to allow the mirror to be movable by hand so that it can be swung safely in for loading and unloading. Semi-tight adjustment also allow tweaking the mirror angle to your liking while riding. Other reviewer already suggest it as well. One improvement a manufacturer or an end-user could consider: replacing the inner hex screw with an M6-25 butterfly or wing screw allows adjusting the joint by hand while on the road and eliminates the need to carry an Allen wrench with you. Overall, it is a very useful product and a good value. So much so that I just ordered a second one for another bike.

I would give these 4 stars for 3 reasons. Just the other day, after about 2 yrs use, suddenly it fell off. I was lucky to find the small black plastic parts that are wedged so when you tighten it inside your handle bars they expand and tighten against the inside of your handle bars. There is a thin kind of O-ring of a kind of rubber that loses its elasticity in time, for me about 2 yrs. When that little ring snaps your mirror will fall out. It was at night and very lucky I could find the tiny black parts against the black pavement. I did a temporary fix by using a rubber band I wrapped where the O-ring had been. That was about 2 weeks ago and not sure how long that will last, but will save the money for now. Also if you get the non-glass mirror, even if you're careful, the reflective material gets small scratches much more easily than glass. It's not so bad until you have the sun behind you then the tiny scratches will significantly haze your view. The pluses are it was easy to install. Also, I like very much the ball joint design as it holds its adjustment very well, far better than 2 other brands I've owned. Only once in a great while, compared to other brands of handlebar mirrors, that it needed to be tightened. I won't buy this particular model or brand again because of the scratching problem, and because the mirror took some getting used to for width of visibility as the mirror is fairly small. I also think the quality of the rubber-like O-ring, being that it's protected out of the weather inside the handlebar, lost it's elasticity far too soon. It's only luck I didn't have to buy a mirror due to my own rubber band idea. I hope this helps.

Second purchase after buying one five years ago for another bike. Good quality product; made in Taiwan (as opposed to the PRC). Mounted it on a cruiser. Easy to install and adjust. (it would have been even easier if I had the right sized spade drill bit rout out the end of the rubber handlebar cover.) Doesn't jiggle; good clarity. Decent price, too. I keep it firm enough to hold a setting but with enough play to enable easy adjustment. Satisfied.

Just got this, and installed it in about 5 minutes. The hardest thing about the install was removing the old plastic end cap from the bar. Once installed, it appears firmly anchored and not at all wobbly. The mirror has a wide range of adjustability, and folds in if in tight quarters. This install is on a flat (not dropped) bar, so it's easily visible. This is much simpler than any other mirror I've tried. Very nice product. Will update this review if any problems. UPDATE: Have now done enough riding to be able to say that this mirror is very stable. It doesn't wiggle, bounce, twist, or require adjustment. I'm not sure what other reviewers were experiencing when they reported such problems, but my guess is that they didn't tighten it enough. This is an excellent product. UPDATE 2: Bought a second one to put on another bike. This one also installed easily in about 5 minutes. It is also very stable.

It’s a decent mirror as far as being sturdy and minimal vibration. But my gripe is optics, not good.

Easy to fit. It’s a great mirror. No more having to strain my neck by looking around anymore

A diferencia de otros , este da más amplitud para ver. Es pequeño, no estorba y fácil de instalar. La herramienta (llave) para instalar no viene incluida a diferencia de otros.

Montaggio semplice,ho tagliato l'estremità della manopola poi infilato lo specchio ho stretto la vite,il materiale è di buona qualità e si vede bene la strada dietro, rimane fisso non balla e lo specchio è di lamina d'acciaio cromata

Tiens bien , deuxième commande toujours réglable dans tous les sens même après plusieurs années 👍

Llevo usándolo mucho tiempo, es pequeño, discreto, resistente, no se mueve y se ve muy bien, muy muy buen producto.
