Abstract
A mirror assembly adaptable for use on bicycles having either drop handlebars or upright handlebars. The mirror assembly includes a rigid arm which is preferably bent at an angle between its ends to form a first member at its proximal end and a second member at its distal end, the arm having a rigid hook extending adjacent from the proximal end which is positionable around either a brake lever stem on drop handlebars or a handgrip on upright handlebars. A mirror is pivotally attached to the distal end of the arm. The mirror is mounted on the distal side of the arm when the hook is mounted over the brake lever stem on drop handlebars and the mirror is disposed on the proximal side of the arm when the hook is disposed under the handgrip of upright handlebars. The hook is preferably removably attached to either the brake lever stem or the handgrip by a flexible strap assembly which wraps around the hook and its support. The strap assembly includes a flexible strap having a ring disposed on one end of the strap and securing means such as Velcro attachment means.
