In ideal case, when there is no frictional force present, the bicycle should keep moving at constant speed.

In ideal case, when there is no frictional force present, the bicycle should keep moving at constant speed. But in real world, there is friction between mechanical linkages of bicycle and between road and bicycle tyre which producrs a retarding force acting opposite to our applied force. So, when we stop pedaling the bicycle, the retarding force due to friction becomes greater than accelerating force applied by human pedaling the bicycle. Due to this reason, the bicycle starts to slow down.

When a bicycle is moving, generally two forces are acting on it...... 1.force applied by us through pedal to move it 2.resistance force applied by the surface of road contacting with the tyre of bicycle... which try to stop the bicycle bicycle moves because the magnitude of force applied by the person...

When a bicycle is moving, generally two forces are acting on it......

1.force applied by us through pedal to move it

2.resistance force applied by the surface of road contacting with the tyre of bicycle... which try to stop the bicycle

bicycle moves because the magnitude of force applied by the person is more that resistive force ......

but whwn we stop pedalling it.......force applied by us become zero........and resistive force become more.......which result in slow down of speed of bicycle.......

It is because of friction present between the surface of bicycle's tyre and the road. Its not only with the bicycle but with any other object you will see this phenomenon. For exp. as we stop accelerating the vehicle it reduces its speed and comes to rest.
