I didn't fall off when I first used them, but I've fallen off because of them three times: Once after a club run, when someone in front of me slowed down around a corner as I wasn't paying attention; the second time at TrixieDix recently when I only had one foot clipped in by accident while trying to trackstand for the first time; and the third time on the Those London Lights ride, when I rode into a stealthy bench in Tron Square while being mesmerised by the lights. No harm done in any of these falls, just rode off and had a laugh about it. All at low speeds.
