Didn't fall the first time but found dealing with a coaster brake and spd's interesting. Ditched the coaster in the end due to lack of control in wintery conditions and not wanting to use the front too heavily on the slippy stuff but not being able to pedal and brake with the back to keep it from locking. Ended up using my face as a brake;( the pedals have stayed and I've fitted a proper brake. How do they manage in holand?
