I was just about to post that link up!
On my main bike, no! It takes away from the riders skill (and the enjoyment of doing skids!) with too much interference from machines and technology...
However, on a second bike, i think it would be awesome. Think what you could actually achieve with an E-Bike... You could get a bike developed using F1 tech. What about a KERS recharging system??? The ABS and TCS would mean you could ride harder and go even faster which i think would be sweet as! Motocross speeds on a bike that weighs less than the rider, instant torque from an electric motor... It would be immensely quick

Not sure ABS is really needed - isn't modulating brakes/cadence braking part of rider skill??
I've thought an ERS would be good for e-bikes, would possibly help make the batteries a bit smaller/lighter.
Not sure how big an ERS system would be though.

Its clearly aimed at amateur riders, the rest of us know how fairly well how hard to pull a lever and know when we do and don't want the wheel to skid.
On the front especially, with a noob on board, id have thought by the time the wheel had had chance to lock, you're already on your arse? Its not like a big heavy BMW motorbike or similar, where the mass and inertia of the bike might give you a chance to save it.

I hated abs on a motorbike...as for a mtb??
If your that bad at controling your stopping you shouldn't be on a trail...
On a car van etc its brilliant
