Quite a few of the <$60 FauxPros on Amazon are getting decent reviews, including longer battery life than the GoPros. Most show some problems at max resolution and framerate, but if you're not trying to make a demo for LucasFilm, you really shouldn't be trying to do 1080@60fps for your day to day riding anyway. Besides, at that price you can do front and back for less than the cost of a single GoPro, and I'd rather have two directions of 720p@15fps than one at high res.
