Re: how to ride slower [CaptainSnail]
If that's the reason of your crash. Taking 50-100W out won't help much. That has happened to me twice, once at 15mph and another time at 25mph. I couldn't avoid crashing at 15mph despite the slower speed. Once your front wheel is stuck, you are already crashing.

Wider tires help avoid front wheel getting caught. Riding with flat pedals allows you bail out more gracefully.
