Totally agree, I don't like the helmet mount for the looks. But I did have a funny exchange with an aggressive police officer (long story), he calmed down when he saw the helmet mounted GoPro. Irony, the GoPro wasn't running, I had an issue with the SD card that day.

I hope to get the CFO to approve the funds for a new GoPro and a handle bar mount this year. My one issue with a handlebar mount that is quick/easy to change from one bike to another. I don't want the camera limited to one bike.
