FAQ

Does it work with drop handlebars?

Yes, the Watch Your Back installs into the hollow bar end on drop bars. It works on both drops and flat bars as long as the bar end is open and hollow.

Does the convex lens distort distance perception?

Convex mirrors make objects appear farther away than they are, which is standard for wide-angle mirrors. Most riders adjust quickly within a few rides.

Can I adjust it while riding?

The ball-joint is designed to be set before the ride and stay in position. Fine-tuning is done stopped; the friction hold keeps it stable while pedaling.

Best For

Road cyclists, commuters, and any rider sharing lanes with motor vehicles who wants rear visibility without the head-turn. A genuinely useful safety upgrade for daily riding.
