Pins + Waffle sole = plenty of grips.
You can bunny hop a bmx without "retention". Unless you ride with locked-up ankles you get plenty of grip around enough of the stroke to slow down.
I rode this year's Clunker on my polo bike with DMR V8s, a sub 40" fixed gear and one front canti brake. I didn't fall off and I finished somewhere between 10th and 15th.
Stop arsing around and start talking about lockrings, ffs.
