No matter what you do, you still have the ultimate potential endpoint of being stuck out somewhere with a dead battery pack and an annoying ride home compared to a freewheel system. (It's worth mentioning that the other main reason you don't see regen used much on bikes is that freewheel systems allow the use of gearing, which greatly improves starting torque, which really is what matters for ebiking comfort. Direct drive systems are less efficient, so they are already starting from behind the curve with regards to making regen worthwhile.) https://www.bikeberry.com/pages/direct-drive-vs-geared https://www.bikeberry.com/pages/direct-drive-vs-geared
