recommend me some good mirrors...
 
Hello. Just bought a new (to me) bike and am looking for some adventure friendly mirrors. I like the idea of folding ones but wondered if they would vibrate or b sturdy enough?
Cheers. Karl.

First. No matter how great they are ... they all break at some point. Then you will buy what is available locally ... do try to make your present purchase with as universal fitting as possible ... makes it easier to mount the next one.
Second. Cost. As they all will break .. don't go expensive.
Third. Looks. Something that looks nondescript rather than 'pinch me now'.

I disagree about breaking of good stuff. Look at double take mirrors. It's the only option for truly robust mirrors.

Inexpensive for me, but I ride on roads/trails where I tip over. These are sturdy and don't vibrate more than any other mirror:

I put my money in my travel budget. I have the EMGO mirrors on two of my motos. Pretty common to see these on rough road bikes around here. Double take is common too, mostly KTM riders, and probably are "better" mirrors in minor ways. They all fold back, and they all have glass that breaks.
