Something doesn‘t work well? It’s a brand new bike but it looks like there is something that isn‘t smooth as it should be? Old bike wirh cassette no problems, everything works and is smooth! New bike with freecoaster and can‘t do crankflip any more…

Normal. Freecoasters do not act like cassette unless you want the Profile Z coaster which will give you the crank flip you want.
my primo balance can because of how the paw bearings sit in the hub

this video should show what i mean
That’s mostly how freecoasters work, they work on a friction engagement system so crank flips aren’t as straight forward. Personally I’m not a fan of crank flips each to their own though! Higher end fcoaster hubs including the increasingly more popular freenight internal coaster/cassettes work better for crank flips.
