Effy, don't quite give up on the rear view mirror yet. Is it a cateye? I have the cateye that says "racing" on the back (like you would ever see a racer with one!) It would start to flop around at 25 mph on our tandem so I took it apart and fixed it. I can fix ANYTHING! Hubby calls me McGyver. (WAAAAYYY off topic but I once fixed hubbys broken throttle cable on his dirt bike with a stick and some zip tys. He rode it for 15 miles thru the desert like that) Sorry for the rambling, just got back from riding and I am a little amped.

So all you do to fix the mirror is take it apart and install a small rubber o-ring on each side of the socket where the mirror sits. Now when you squish it back together, the o-rings keep it solid. If that makes no sense I can take a pic of it.


Have fun,

Brenda
