Would these look good on an XB? Surely better than the Mickey Mouse mirrors but I would like to get input on them.

Not my thing at all. I would prefer a more solid mount no matter what the style of mirror.

I thought so. They were cheap and I'm riding with one mirror right now. I was trying to get some Rizoma mirrors off of e-bay but I was outbid - Ratz! I'll keep looking.

Just go down to a local bicycle shop and tell them you want some sturdy bar end mirrors for a mountain bike.

I seen the Rizoma Dynamic mirrors and I broke down and paid for them. Better to get quality then something I can't see out of. I don't like the way the bar end mirrors look so I'm glad I went this route. Thanks for the input.

Check out the CRG mirrors. They would look good.

Why would you say get a Nazi helmet with them? Not funny if I don't know why.
