I learned how to ride switch foot partially for being able to swap the most heavily weighted leg, partially so as to be comfy on traverses on steep mountains (much better that your inside foot be rearwards if you clip something hidden in grass or bushes with it) and partially as endos/stoppies in corners are a lot easier for me with the outside foot forward. I'm barely worse at jumping or hopping with the opposite foot forward and can forget I've got the "wrong" foot forward. I can also forget which way is "forward" on a snowboard too though. I'm quite ambidextrous too so maybe it's more easy for me to learn to be ambipedal?

A 16-Year-Old Made This Gearbox-Equipped High Pivot Enduro Bike Prototype
I think the writer might need to look up what a “dearth of” anything is.
Really cool project though, good on that lad.

Spotted: Prototype High Pivot Canyon Sender
It's not necessarily useless with an idler. If you mess around in Linkage, you can put the idler in a good place for anti-squat but with theoretical pedal kickback. I say theoretical as it's claimed quite often that it's not real or not a problem...

RiDE Creatives Shows Off Unique Gearbox DH Bike Concept
How do you think the shock being 'high' has anything to do with it being a high pivot? That's not a way you can judge a bike's kinematic but you could make points about aesthetics and CoG

The Inside Scoop on Norco's Prototype Downhill Bike
You are quite wrong on a few points there. All F1 teams upgrade their cars in season; largely aerodynamically but they also can change the mechanical parts/platform if they wish. The cost cap sees to the latter being more difficult though. They could do a new chassis if they wanted but it would take too much cash away from aero development which is going to give bigger gains. Mercedes changed suspension geometry on the front of their car during this season though, for example.
They all use their wind tunnels all year (well, not during the 2 week summer break) but there’s a sliding scale depending on championship position to determine how many runs they can do. There are hundreds of engineers working back at each of the teams’ factories who also work with CFD but that’s also limited by championship position.

Kavenz Announces Pre-Order Availability For Gearbox Frame
@road-n-dirt: It’s not riding style, it’s the trail, there’s plenty I ride you’d have lost control and have no chance of getting up the up if you stop braking on the down (for example there could be a really tight turn through rocks just before the bottom (and still a massive drop off the side)).
