Upside-down

I find that my mirror (BM500G) works best upside-down :eek: Yes really!

I can see right down the lane behind me, not obstructed by my arm
I have more hand room
I can get under barriers
I can turn the bike upside-down

Anyone else tried this?

i have to admitt im going to try it as i find they are very deceptive as when you first look a car might seem a very long way away but in reality its not and if you dont act upon your first impressin and leave it any time and pull out you could be in trouble...:eek: ...

Wiggle Are Truly The Best Supplier

yesterday i spoke of my woe as had broke mirror, i ordered another from wiggle at 3.45pm...but be careful as if you change your option and go for free delivery it is just that, i nearly didnt and would have paid £3.99 postage on a £8.99 mirror....i didnt think i would need bike for a couple of days and opted for free delivery...GUESS WHAT... i still recieved my mirror today :) .. thumbs up for wiggle.......:) :)

I have one of the first Reevu helmets with built in mirror (what happend to them?) It's handy for knowing if a truck is trying to overtake, amazingly many flash they're hazards to say thanks for pulling in.
