My Third Broken Bike Mirror, now with the handyman's friend: ducttape
Well what are we going to do with another broken bike mirror? I refuse
to buy another one. I took all the pieces, laid them over two strips of duct tape and pressed the splintered mirror back into the pvc frame. Looks like the "hall of mirrors" but I can still see approaching vehicles enough to know whether or not to squeeze right. How did it break? Just like the other two, bike falls over when parked and along comes a freak high wind storm. We get those here. |

Recumbent kickstands are for the birds. Regards, Ed Dolan the Great - Minnesota aka Saint Edward the Great - Order of the Perpetual Sorrows - Minnesota |

Regards, Ed Dolan the Great - Minnesota aka Saint Edward the Great - Order of the Perpetual Sorrows - Minnesota That's one reason why I'm building centerstands for my bikes from bar stock and angle iron. They aren't very light but they do the job of holding the bike up, even with a full touring toad or a week's worth of groceries. |
