I can guess what effect frame rate and resolution will have.
What bit rate do you use? The default setting is low quality; is that good enough for road bike use?
I use the highest setting which record 1920 x 1080 and I set it to Medium bit rate. I also set my Contour HD to Low light Dusk exposure. I find that setting pretty useful for low light and the higher quality recording still can capture cars that buzz by me in a fast speed although I still have to use the Event/Pan crop in my editing software to zoom in on the plate.
