Sprintech® City XL

- Sprintech.eu

The Sprintech® City XL has taken many similar measures to its racing bike counterpar­t, improving where necessary, while keeping many aspects the same with the original city bike model.

Made for mountain bikes, city bikes, e-bikes, and scooters, this mirror utilises a straight or slightly curved bar, allowing cyclists traversing difficult terrain or busy cityscapes to keep an eye out for danger at every turn. This is essential especially for those cycling in urban environmen­ts, where a majority of cycling accidents take place. And with thousands of cycling accidents taking place every year, safety in these places is crucial.

The surface area of this new XL model has increased to 29cm², and similarly has been made with safety glass. In busy cities, mountainsi­des, and coast lines, rain, saltwater, and weather can be intense, and therefore very damaging to bike mirrors and other cycling accessorie­s. The switch to safety glass makes these mirrors far less likely to corrode, and therefore usable for many more years to come. Surely, a worthy investment to keep you or your loved one safe.

Like the Sprintech® Racing XL, this reinvented City mirror can also be used on either side of the handlebars, unlike the older, smaller model, which was designed to be used as a pair of two; one on each side. For city cyclists eager to explore the world, this feature should be especially exciting, as it means no matter what side of the road you are cycling, the Sprintech® City XL can be put to good use. Whether you’re cycling on the left or on the right, simply swap the side the mirror is on, and enjoy the sights. For the internatio­nal cyclist, this is the perfect Christmas gift.

These mirrors, too, are sold as a single unit, and are currently only available in Black.
