I have just purchased a reasonably good 200W 10Ah 36V folding bike. It runs fine. However the twist grip throttle is not the half width type that is "inside" of the right hand bar but the "whole" width of the right handle. This means that it is not suitable for fitting a bar end mirror for two reasons: firstly the mirror would be permanently changing angle as I twist the throttle and secondly there is no suitable fitting for this kind of end-bar mirror.
So I need a mirror which is either INSIDE the outer throttle grip or perhaps attached to the brake lever, and I can even move the Shimano assembly so that it is inside of the mirror and still reach the gear change lever.
So I need a mirror that can be secured on the bare bar and have a twisty neck that can be adjusted for angle and stay put.
I've seen only one mirror like this:
Flexible Bike Bicycle Handlebar Mirror
...and it doesn't look too brilliant.
Does anyone know of a good quality convexed mirror of this type which gives a decent field of view? Thanks for any suggestions.
PS: My bike frame is not suitable for a frame-attached mirror.
