I'm looking for one of those helmet mirrors made from a bicycle spoke. They're made, apparently, by a guy named Chuck Harris. I've searched the web until my eyes cross and I can't find these mirrors anywhere. Well, one place has them listed but "out of stock."
If anybody has a spare one or can get one at their LBS, I'd happily pay for shipping in addition to the cost of the mirror. The folks I ride with swear by these mirrors, but it seems they all got them long ago and far away.
Juju,
Mary has one. Here is a thread where she shows a picture of hers, plus in the later page she gives his contact info:

Thanks, Lisa, but I already wrote to the guy and got no response. Hoping someone here can help.
Maybe he moved, or got too old to make them anymore, or he got sick.
Yes, it's possible. Just thought I'd give it another try before I give up.:)
Here is a website that carries them:

I use the sunglass style myself and love it.
Thanks, Midget, I appreciate the effort, but none of those is the original Chuck Harris made-from-a-bicycle-spoke mirror. But no worries--I checked out the club site that Xrayted turned me on to, and I've just ordered a couple of Chuck Harris mirrors from them. Yay!
Glad you found 'em!
