[python] Re: hands free braking aka coaster brake component

Somewhere someone wrote that the backward pedaling is not used with the bicycle. I think especially for recumbent bikes that's not really true. I'd really hate it if I couldn't correct the pedal position when waiting in front of a traffic light to get a good first push to start pedaling and balancing. I just can not start from every pedal position.

But maybe with a low python recumbent, where you can reach the ground with both hands, this problem is not so important. And I think when you push the bike backwards on the ground, the crank also should turn backward so that it is possible to get the desired pedal position.
