When I was a little kid, their commercials were one of my tv favorites. Not that there was much on tv I liked back then.

Leaning hard in a curve even anti lock brakes can cause enough reduction in traction momentarily to break loose, and once it's loose in that situation, it probably ain't coming back. Even happens to cars occasionally, but they're not gonna low side on you. If they ever put that auto braking feature on a bike, they'd better put an angle cutoff switch in the circuit. Even then, I wouldn't trust it.

Autonomous brakes work pretty well on a car but they usually only work while adaptive cruise control is on. Sounds dangerous on a bike.

Hamms was a good beer till about the mid 1960s when it started being bought out by larger beer company’s. Think it is just a name used by Miller Brewing now. My dad drank it all the time. The pictures in the beer commercials were taken at a resort about 5 miles from where I grew up.
