I tried the vintage cycle lamp and whilst it shows promise the iso-elastic mount had too much sideways movement, so the image just shook left-right instead of up-down.   When I'm next in B&Q I'll give it some more thought.

In the end I used elastic bands to strap the camera as rigidly as possible to my bike; to a handlebar lamp mount (the lamp went swimming in the canal last year), and to an old-skool lamp bracket that mounts on an axle.   This proved to be better than an elastic mount.   In the resulting video you can also see a late Christmas present.   What do aunties and uncles always give as presents at Christmas?   Socks of course, but my family being outdoor types these aren't ghastly I-wouldn't-be-seen-dead-in-those socks, but Smartwool Outdoor socks.   And very nice they are too.   There are also Smartwool Cycling socks, but I don't pretend to know what advantages they offer cyclists over the Outdoor variety.
