Best compact head for Gitzo traveler tripod


I just ordered a Gitzo 1541T compact traveler tripod and I am looking for a head.

I am looking at RRS BH-30 and at Acratech GP-ss ... which one are you advicing me to buy?
Other ideas?

I am a bit more biased for the RRS, because it is a bit lighter and because the Acratech is not available at the moment (but Acratech says it will be in a month) and the GFP-s is too heavy...
If a would go for RRS, I think I will buy it with the screw-Knob clamp, so I could use also third-party ArcaSwiss-like plates on it. Do you see any drawback in this kind of clamp? Is it easier that the clamp will get itself unscrewed?

Thanks in advance for your advice,
Francesco
