I have no problem doing a soft bump in second aroun 15 mph. I don't know if it is just my car, but I always use second gear at around 15 mph with the double clutch technique.

I use it so that I can judge lights and coast to them in time to never fully stop along with stop signs. I can coast all the way to 15 mph just before the stop sign using my brakes at the end and never use my ignition to start. Seems pretty seemless and I get great results.
