I've been thinking about whether I need to do that on my tallbike as well. I'm running a chain from the top bottom-bracket to the bottom bottom-bracket, and then back to the rear wheel. So I actually will have two sets of pedals and should be able to use one to hop over the top part of the bike. We'll see if it works. I just put together a contraption (made out of two derailleurs) to maintain tension between the bottom brackets. Again, we'll see if it works
