Maybe with a 2-speed and one-way bearing they need a shifter for reverse driving.

I don't see the point really - with the power out there in BL (especially a Neu on 6S) there is really no need for a 2-speed. With the low-end torque output of a BL motor, a 2-speed doesn't provide much benefit. And from my experience with my LST2 on BL power - the shift between 1st and 2nd gear would usually pull the front wheels up and frequently cause a brutal back-flip at speed.
