Mirror for Humpert butterfly bars
« on: February 20, 2013, 05:01:23 pm »
Anyone any thoughts on a suitable mirror to fit to my Humpert butterfly bars.
The clamping is the issue since an end fitting would not work.
UK source if poss.

Would these be OK?

Looks ok,
I use one of these, they come with a bar end and a clamp on fitting.

So it clamps onto the bar rather than pops into the bar end?
If so, that could be the one for me.
Do you use Humpert bars?

Thanks

Matt,
I have used Humpert bars, but now prefer Thorn Comfort bars which suit my age and riding style.
I don't use bar ends, I use Ergon GP1s which are very comfy.

The B&M star mirrrors have a bar end plug and a clamp on fitting, either can be used.
Both fittings can be seen here,
