ANybody been able to stay with lower cadence and still have decent power ?
There are lots of reasons to use a higher cadence while racing.

If you're talking only about time trialling and you don't have to attack or respond to accelerations then you need to use whatever cadence gives you the most power. If you have a powermeter it's not difficult to figure out what works best.
