Unless the shifting is REALLY stiff, I don't think you should have any problems with the Archer setup. As far as I've seen, you can determine chain pull for every gear separately if required. But of course, do share your experiences once you get the bike.
Focus on Effigear performance as well plus if you have the option of running a standard rear hub and a locked freewheel (to compare how it shifts, aiming at my comments of being required to backpedal and all...), that would be awesome.
Primoz I will discuss this with Joe also and let you know.

Primoz I agree that the Archer system should work, as the recent test of the Spur in PB shows it with a modified thumb shifter (pic) to change the gears with just the one cable.
IFR's approach to this new bike is perplexing to me... if it is secret enough that it has to be covered up, why use side-view shots of it for a major press release? If it's supposed to get people interested in a new bike they have coming out, why is it still covered up? And if it's an attempt to use guerilla marketing tactics to stoke interest, won't that fall a little flat when they release a barely-tweaked Session?

Think how many posts there have been about it on this site alone. Covering it up has generated loads of interest about what is under there; is it just a session? Is is Nico’s bike? Is it the new Intense proto? Where are the pivots, it’s ABS, it’s Horst link, it’s VPP? Etc.
Good or bad there has been a lot of publicity about to just from the first initial ‘spy shot’.
Looking good... Intense proto, little far away,but it's something

Based on how the bike is sitting with the shock removed, it looks like the bike is a mid-high-pivot. I'm simply basing this on where the axle is relative to the main pivot; I may be wrong about this if the bike is currently sitting way lower than it would with the shock attached and bottomed out.
I just saw a headline from bike radar but for some reason my copy paste isn't doing it's thing. SRAM developing an ebike motor. Would be cool to see if they somehow integrated the Hammerschmidt style hi/lo system for the output of that were possible.
