Yes, that's a kickback coaster brake at the rear. I couldn't change his mind.
Why not, they're a great and reliable system, shame you couldn't convinced him that it's illegal to ride without a front brake.

@Björn is in the Netherlands, where just a coaster brake is acceptable.

So reliable that you only need the coaster in the Netherlands, but if you have rim brakes only you have to have separate ones on each wheel.

It's not on our side of the pond. Probably half of the bikes here come with a kickback brake. My issue is that those bikes probably never go above 15kph.
Problem was that a Velosteel was the only 32h hub I could find and they don't have the best reputation. SA had one in their catalog for '14/'15, but it hasn't or never will come out.
