I'm running the R50 on some Boscos and it works well, and my wife has a C50 on her Toscos which also works. I'd try swapping the C50 from your wife's bike onto your Chocos to test it out.
Looks like Spurcycle just released an upgraded aluminum version of the R35/R50 (comes in black or silver now), twice the price though. https://www.spurcycle.com/products/r50-pro-aluminum-mirror-slv Danny Madison, WI On Tuesday, May 12, 2026 at 6:36:07 AM UTC-5 J Schwartz wrote: > thanks, > I put a C50 on my wife's bike with a wavie bar.
