CycleSmiths introduces first ‘ Naked ’ mirror

Rancho Cucamonga , California based CycleSmiths has introduced what it describes as the “ first ever ‘ Naked ’ mirror - a revolutionary new line of frameless mirrors to edge out the competition .” This “ first-of-its-kind Naked mirror design has no housing thanks to the special hardened glass which is three times stronger than a car ’ s windshield . Because of this , the CycleSmiths Naked mirror is the first all glass mirror on the market .” The first style of frameless mirror launched is the ‘ Naked Lollipop ’, which features a “ clean , subtlytapered stem and round mirror that ’ s just as at-home on retro bobbers and choppers as it is on modern cruisers and baggers .” The company says that the pivotless design won ’ t vibrate out of place after tightening and only requires a 5 / 32 ” Allen key to adjust . Available with a chrome or black stem and with clear or smoked 2 1 / 4 ”, 3 ”, or 3 1 / 2 ” round glass to suit individual styles , the stems are available in standard length , which places the mirror center 4 ” up and 4 3 / 8 ” out , and shorty length , which places the mirror center 3 ” up and 2 1 / 4 ” out . “ Since the glass can be easily removed from the stem , the stem can also be coated to match custom color schemes .” CycleSmiths ‘ Naked Lollipop ’ frameless mirrors fit standard Harley-Davidson controls or any mount that uses a 5 / 16 ” x 1 5 / 8 ” stud ; designed to fit on the right or left side it can be mounted on the top or bottom . Founded in 1993 by a group of family and friends who still operate the company today , CycleSmiths products are designed and built in-house in Southern California . CycleSmiths is known for its ‘ Bowed Banana ’ footboards , and the company is proud to have developed “ the world ’ s first 1 1 / 4 ” handlebar , dubbed the FATBAR , which has since become the industry standard .” Doug Clarkson , the creative genius behind CycleSmiths , is a graduate of the Art
