I am looking for a replacement mirror for an old (c. 1980s) RhodeGear handlebar mirror which has cracked. The style of these mirrors was simplicity itself. The mirror part is round (circular) and attached to a bracket which is shaped for draping over the brake caliper mounts/handles (not too sure what you call them). The bracket attaches with a velcro strap around the caliper mount, and the whole thing is very portable between bikes. The mirror is large, slightly convex and provides excellent rear vision. I'm pretty sure these mirrors were sold for at least ten years, and were fairly popular.
I brought one over from the USA (left hand mount) with me when I immigrated in 1986, but it cracked in transit. I bought a right hand mount in 1997 in Newcastle, and I'm kicking myslef for not having replaced the carcked side then. Can anyone help me find a replacement?
Just the mirror part will do. I don't need the whole assembly, but will take what I can get.
Thanks in advance, and keep on truckin'! The best you can ever do is never make the same mistake twice.
