Mirrycle Road STI Bicycle Mirror Bicycle rear-view mirror designed to fit Shimano STI levers ………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………. I’ve bought at least 5 different types of road bike mirrors but this one seems to the best. It gives a great view of what’s behind and was easy to install. I’m sure some might think it’s not aerodynamic but I guess you’ve got to sacrifice for safety. My only complaint is adjusting it for different angles. It seems like it was built to stay in one position. You can move the mirror to adjust but it feels like it not supposed to be moved. Love this mirror, it is perfect for your STI shifters. Easy to attach and to remove when not needed. The only con is that when installed your shifter is open a little which could allow water into your shifter. I never ride in the rain so not an issue for me. I just began riding again after a 20 year hiatus. Besides the helmet I quickly realized that I was missing my second most used safety device – a mirror. Previously my favorite was the old Rhode Gear mirror that included a metal stem and mounted around the shifter/brake lever hood with Velcro. When I found out that they were no longer available, my search began for the next best thing. After much research I kept coming back to the Mirrycle STI which I eventually purchased. True, it does come in quite a few parts but the directions and diagrams were very easy to follow. I had it assembled and installed on my bike in less than 10 minutes. The construction is impressive and the mirror quality, adjustability and visibility are very good. Two minutes into my first ride with it installed made me realize just how much I valued being able to see what was behind me. No more sudden surprises, I am able to keep my head facing in the direction that I’m travelling and I can move out of t I was very excited after the first 10 miles, or so, on my first ride with this mirror. Then when the roads got a little more bumpy, quite literally, all heck broke loose. I retightened several times, and finally the bottom piece broke.

Determined, I sent for another piece from the manufacturer, who very nicely replaced it at no charge. On my next ride, for the first 20 miles, or so, I loved how well it worked. Then with the vibration from our bumpy country roads, things not only loosened, but even without tightening, the mirror broke the portion of the Shimano handle, where it was attached. Needless to say, I’m done with trying to make it work. Great concept, but not sturdy enough for our roads! Unless you ride on smooth pavement all the time, don’t go through the hassle of trying this product. You will be disappointed.
