I used clipless pedals on my sirrus for years but changed to flat pedals for the past 2. Just do whatever fits your needs, it is not unusual to pick one or the other on any bike.

The trade off for efficiency that the aerobars can give you is that the weight of them drastically alters the bike's handling. From what they weigh, it shouldn't be a big deal, but because the...
