Tiger Eye mirrors have been handmade in America for over a decade. Constructed from high grade glass optics and a stainless steel bicycle spoke they are lightweight, durable, and fit almost any helmet. A favorite of a former Tours Director, Arlen Hall.
Installation instructions:
- To install the Tiger Eye mirror, place it the northwest corner of the helmet; not too far in front or it will block forward vision, and not too far back or you will have to look too hard to the left to see it.
- When attaching the mirror to the helmet the large rubber-coated U portion of the mirror that slides onto the edge of a helmet should be squeezed almost closed and then gently opened just enough to get it started on the edge of the helmet, then push it on the rest of the way. This will insure a tight attachment to the helmet; half of the U should be between the brow pad and the inside of the helmet, and the other half of the U on the outside of the helmet.
- Since every helmet is different, the final adjustment requires some bending of the spoke to get the mirror where it needs to be on a particular helmet. Don't be afraid to bend it, it's a bike spoke and it won't break from bending it. Place your left finger in your left ear and bend the spoke until you can see your finger. This will require you to take the helmet on and off a few times and hold the mirror onto the helmet while you are bending it and testing it’s position. Once you have that position, set you will need to turn your head very slightly to the left to see directly behind you.

I love my Tiger Eye! Easier than it looks to put on the helmet. No sticky stuff. Infinitely adjustable. When I bump it, like I always do, it doesn’t break, just have to slide it back in position instead of buy a whole new one. Excellent rear vision. Been riding with a Tiger Eye for almost 20 years now.
Lynne Tolman –
I’m about to buy my second one. The first one lasted two years before the mirror became unglued from the backing and fell off. But I like the spoke attachment, the adjustability, and the clear rear view. The missing mirror will probably turn up as soon as I click “place order,” and if so I’ll try to glue it back on.
