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?
Since I commute in an urban setting and I want to get the most detail in my videos for getting license numbers, and motorist/vehicle descriptions, I set my Contour switch on high, 1920 X 1080P, 30fps, maximum quality setting. Even in that particular setting and with a 16GB class 6 memory card at 8min per GB battery life, I still get over 2 hours worth of video.
