Parametric Cycle Mirror Handlebar Plug Mount

Suitable for mounting mirrors with a 10 mm ball mount system in handlebar ends (plug-style).

I have a nice Busch und Müller rearview mirror, which came with a plug mount that didn't fit into the equally nice but Busch-und-Müller-incomptabile aluminium handlebar of my bicycle. This parametric design allows the creation of plugs that fit non-standard handlebars.

Thanks to Stamos for the inspiration, though after considerable head-scratching, I ended up with a completely different design! :-)

If you're using a different style of mirror, also check out this customizable design by Ryoko:
