By the time you buy their mounting accessories to get it on a bike, you might as well buy a Go pro camera.

From what I read, the Cube is much easier to set up and operate. I have two GoPros and most of their mounts and underwater cases. For a basic $99, the Cube looks pretty good for basic action clips. Seems to be set up the same way I would set up my GoPro for sports action vids. I like the single, multifunction button on top with three basic inputs for full control. No so sure about a magnetic mount, though! They say it's stable at 35mph, but what about 135mph on the track? All that wind, then just hit one small bump and it's gone, I would bet!

Here is the camera I used

http://www.tachyoninc.com/bikercam.php

It was $229.00 on Amazon and came with 3 different mounts, a waterproof cover, and power cord with CL adapter. It can record in 720 or 1080p. And uses a 32gb sd card for storage. It records in 15 minute sections so it makes it easy to find the footage you need.

Here is how I mounted it to my bike:
