Title: Cheap action cam...

Pretty good value and all the reports I've read about it are good all apart from the download speed to the computer. Sports pack isn't available any more but can be bought seperately on ebay for £15ish.
Just picked mine up tonight for Airsoft and MTB'ing ;) :) 8)

Is this a high lift one that holds the valves open longer? :)

F'nar F'nar.  :D

That's a groovy little gadget. I might add it to the ever-incresing shopping list.

Has good reviews from the mountainbikers, other than being a bit intolerant to moisture. I ended up going with the ATC2000 for waterproofyness, but the picture qual degrades when things vibrate. Motion is fine, but vibrations over a certain freq seem to cause serious image wobble (a product of the sensor type, unfortunately.)

Things never look half as scary on cam as they do in real life when it comes to mountain biking though!  ;D

That's very true, it's impossible to replicate the real thing, and often I bring them home and think "delete, looks like I was doing 5mph down a train track".
