Some Electric hub motor bikes can do some, of the regenerative effect , the motor, turns generator.

anything else is approaching snake oil .. free lunch .

where are the peer reviewed engineering papers ?

looks like it is a rather weak brake response, in an urgent braking situation
it will be like steel rims in the rain , way too long a stopping distance,

someone will die.

when I grab the front brake lever I want it to make the bike to commence stopping

Is there a second disc brake on the wheel in this scheme, that actually works?
