Agreed, the battery thing is golden, but regn... it really isn't the Holy Grail. Bikes just don't spend enough time coasting nor is there much mass there... E=MC*2. If you don't have any mass there you ain't going to get much energy back into the battery. Not to mention losses of all kinds in the conversion. You might have heard all this before. You heard right.
