Electronic bike brake design removes levers, stops when you grip the handlebar
An electronic bicycle brake system has been proposed that brakes without levers, activating when riders grip the handlebar. Dutch inventor Maas van Beek (마스 반 베이크) unveiled a design using pressure sensors inside the grips and a central control module to trigger braking. The system integrates braking into the handlebar and includes a motor to assist braking force, along with a mechanical backup for electronic failures. The concept has been patented, but no working prototype exists yet.
