Flipping a clip less pedal should be as easy as changing the bearings in your specific pedal but changing the left and right spindles before reassembly. Shimano pedals would be great for this and they make the best pedals imo.
I realize that you can use dual-side pedals. With standard setup, the right crankarm uses right threading and the left crankarm use left threading to prevent mechanical precession (gradual loosening of the pedals). When you flip the captain's crankset, the right crankarm will have left threading, and the left crankarm will have right threading. To prevent the pedals from coming loose, you can over-tighten the pedals but they might become seized.

Since this is your build 2.0, did you find a way around the pedal threading problems?
