Is it ok to use with a Road Bike riding position.

Look at www.thirdeye.com they have helmet and glasses mounted mirrors
and will send direct from the US. I have used a glasses mounted mirror
for a while now and find it great, never miss the rear view, but
requires you to turn your head.


You sure about that url?

I wear glasses, so glasses-mounted has been the way to go. I've had one
for over 25 years. Have used one with both dropped and flat handle-bars
and had no problems with either.
There's no need to import these as such. See your local dentist, ask
them for half a dozen, they'll give them to you. Then take one bit of
old spoke, a small electrical connector (Dick Smith or Tandy) and some
araldite or superglue.
You can probably figure assembly out for yourself, easy enough, adjust
with pliers for correct view when complete. I wouldn't be without one,
and have no problems adjusting from flick left (car) to flick right
(bike). Simple, cheap, light, compact, vibration-free, and you can spot
a likely arsehole well before they get close, for evasive action.
Cheers,
Ray
Has anyone used a glasses mounted mirror in Europe?

we'll be cycling in France in July for that once in a lifetime TDF week,
and I'll need to practice the left head turn for July when the third eye
is mounted on the left hand side of the glasses.

Get a 2nd one now and give it a go. You may never go back to just one,
I'm very happy with twin hood mounts.
