About Blackburn
In 1975, Jim Blackburn set out to design stronger, lighter, more innovative and more reliable cycling products. The first were bags and racks designed for touring. From there, Blackburn grew. Over the next 30 years, Blackburn's spark of innovation would lead to many revolutionary products, like the first high quality aircraft aluminum rack, the first dual stroke minipump, the first oversized mountain minipump and the first dual stage/dual stroke floorpump just to name a few. For 2005, Blackburn's creative spark is burning brighter than ever. And as we head into our 30th year, Blackburn is re-dedicated to designing smart, reliable, no nonsense accessories that are essential to your riding experience.

2.0 out of 5 stars May not be what I needed, May 26, 2007

By	XRing "XRing" (MASS, USA) - See all my reviews

I have to agree that the mirror 'arm' is too short.

However, my helmet is one of the larger made.
(Bell Faction Dave Mirra Multi-Sport)

I also think I should have purchased a mirror with a larger diameter.

Since the mirror arm and mount adjustment socket-balls have such
a limited range of movement, I had a very limited choice in where
the mirror base (double-sided-sticky) could be installed.

I have to look way up and left to see the mirror, and
that might take a lot of getting used to.
Had I been able to mount it lower, it would be easier
to use (without rolling my eyes so far over).


While out riding today, I found that the mirror can be removed
from it's base. Built into the flat mounting section, there
are two little 'snaps' that hold two segments together.
While I was reaching up trying to adjust my view,
the whole thing popped off in my hand.
I snapped it back on later when we stopped for ice cream. :)

There is much more vibration ( = fuzzy vision) than
is seen in my handlebar mounted (Blackburn) mirror.

If you ride on bumpy roads a lot, forget this mirror!

If I get another one, It will be bigger and have a longer arm.

5.0 out of 5 stars Easy to Use Helmet Mirror, November 4, 2007

By	Linda Sigismondi (Gallipolis, OH USA) - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

I was surprised to see the negative reviews of this item. I have been using a Blackburn Helmet Mirror for 4-5 years. I was only ordering a new one to go with a new helmet. I have used a third eye helmet mirror and a wire helmet mirror in the past, and find the Blackburn much easier to attach and adjust. I have been using a helmet mirror since I began serious cycling in the 1980's. Though it is much smaller than a handlebar mirror, it gives a more accurate picture of the distance of the approaching vehicle.

1.0 out of 5 stars Too short, thus rendered useless..., July 5, 2006

By	N. Maddix "moonlightrose44" (Iowa City, IA USA) - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

This mirror may fit on any helmet, but the legnth is far too short to see anything. I was looking for something a little longer and wider. For the reference, my helmet is a Bell Ghisallo ('05).
