    Anyone here use a mirror on a road bike?
    I'm thinking there might be one that could pop into a bar end.
    There's one road in particular I cycle on a lot that gives me the heebeejeebees and glancing back briefly only ads to the danger as the road surface itself warrants your full attention.

    Just wondering if there's something discreet I haven't seen.
    Marty.

    Road bike mirrors instead of bar tape plugs.
    Hope the link works.
    No idea how effective they are though.
    Possible cheaper elsewhere.

    Cheers. Yeah exactly something like that.
    Handy to gauge if traffic from behind appear to be giving you a wide enough berth without taking your eye off the road.
    Saucy though but I'm sure there's cheaper options.
