As Chris highlighted, TMR also says it's potentially unsafe to ride a bike slower than 10kmh
How do you even keep your balance if you’re essentially pedaling at a brisk walking speed?
9-10kph is still fairly easy to keep balance without thinking about it IME. But without a speedometer, you're going to have to go slow enough that balancing is something that takes effort if you want to stay under that speed...
That should not pose a challenge to anyone not currently learning to ride a bicycle
Easily if you have any balance at all.
