    How do you have them positioned? I have mirrors on my bike but they kinda useless, the slight movements I make on the handlebars+bumps in the road make them too hard to see. If I put them more at the center of my handlebars so they move less then I can’t see anything but my own bike.

      I only have one on the left side and it’s mounted close to the outer end of the handlebar. Mine looks like this:

      And it’s pretty sturdy. I’ve had flimsier mirrors before that had the same problems you describe.
