As far as I can see the actual energy it gains would be from the movement of the rider's body as it goes along the road
In other words from the roughness of the road surface.
Hence it would be of little use on a perfectly smooth road - or cycle track
but if you are riding along a bumpy track - or any road in Liverpool - then your body bounces up and down ad you go along
normally this all goes into the suspension and/or spokes etc etc - but this system acts as suspension but when it rebounds then it does so in a useful way and produces some forward drive.
SOmeone above mentioned using it on an ebike - presumably with central drive and this seems to make sense
However, I cannot see that it will produces much actual power - and it is even less certain that it will produce enough extra drive to make up for it weighing 6kg!
or, for that matter, enough to make it worth spending that much on it.
If it was cheaper and you could take one for a test ride to try it out then I might have a go - but....
