Stay Safer with BeeCool’s Handy Mirror Accessories

Why Rearview Mirrors Make a Big Difference

eBikes are fast and powerful — which is great until you're surrounded by traffic or riding in unfamiliar terrain. A rearview mirror lets you see what’s coming from behind without turning your head, helping you stay balanced and focused.

Whether you're changing lanes, turning, or just curious about what's behind, a mirror is your silent guardian. It’s one of the simplest ways to boost your safety on every ride.

What Type of Mirror Should You Use?

There’s no one-size-fits-all mirror. Your riding style and bike setup will determine what works best.

Handlebar Mirrors

Great for city commuters or casual riders. Easy to install and offers a wide view. Just make sure it's secure and doesn't wobble.

Helmet Mirrors

These move with your head. Ideal for road cyclists or tourers who want a consistent line of sight. Takes a bit of getting used to.

Bar-End Mirrors

Perfect for those using drop bars or off-road setups. Sleek and durable, but they offer a smaller viewing angle.

How to Choose the Right One

Pick a mirror that:

  • Adjusts easily

  • Stays put, even over bumps

  • Has a wide-angle or convex view

  • Resists glare and vibration

If you often ride in city traffic, go for a larger, handlebar-mounted mirror. For trail riding or racing, low-profile mirrors are better.

Setting It Up the Right Way

Installing a mirror only takes a few minutes, but it’s important to do it right:

  • Mount it on the side with traffic (usually the left).

  • Adjust while sitting on your bike — your elbow shouldn’t block the view.

  • Make sure it doesn’t shift when you ride over bumps.

  • Test it in real-world conditions. A parking lot is a good place to start.

Using Mirrors the Smart Way

Having a mirror is one thing — using it properly is another.

  • Check often, especially before turning or changing lanes.

  • Glance, don’t stare. A quick look is enough; your focus should stay on the road ahead.

  • Pair it with shoulder checks when needed. Don’t rely on mirrors alone.

  • Keep it clean and stable. Dust or vibration can ruin visibility.

Common Mistakes to Avoid

  • Relying only on your mirror — always stay alert and aware of your surroundings.

  • Installing it loosely or at a bad angle — it should show what’s behind, not your arm.

  • Buying tiny or cheap mirrors — they often blur at high speed or crack easily.
