Bicycle safety is always on my mind. The roads are getting busier and I’m getting more active with my lycra clad friends at the weekend.

You can get a decent reflective jacket and a bike radar unit (At around £165) to make you safer. They work.

I have tried a mirror that sits at the end of the handlebars but they can break off when you rest your bike against a wall.

I have also tried the mirror that you can add to the end of a racing cycling bar but that fell off too after a few weeks. The mirror looked a bit naff.

It shook when going along so it is very hard to see a car coming from behind you.

So I tried out this wrist mirror from Ebay at around £4.99. I tried two positions.

The result is you can only see a car when it’s right beside you.

You have to have your arm bent out to see anything.

A complete waste of money.

So how does it work… it doesn’t so do not buy it.
