Its only 2 gears, so not a big deal to figure out, and anticipate what gear you want, and your not actually engaging the brake to shift between the two. The only challenge is to figure out what size cog to put on the hub. I got it right for my use on the first try, roughly 17mph on the flats, 10 mph on the climbs, and coasting on the descents.
Overall pretty simple, had one on my Schwinn Racer growing up, lots of kids had them, guess we all figured it out.
