Pretty neat - I saw this one up close the other day. Thought it was pretty cool but questioned how long before someone ran into the back and squished the head:

I would be more nervous about how long it would be until it eats your shin in the dark! A regular ball mount is bad enough when it gets you. I'm happy with a simple rubber cover for $3.

I like that one so much I ordered 1 very similar from Amazon, 3 different times! I had to return 3, than I gave up and got the rubber one. They all looked really good, but the QC and clearances were so poor on the hole for the pin that the pin would only go in one side. For $55 I wasn't about to reinvent the wheel to mount it. I was also afraid it might rattle when I saw how crappy the fit was, even if I reamed the holes enough to get the pin to go in.
