I just went to the pedals with flats on one side and clipless (Shimano) one the other and like them way more than I thought I would. They're great, when I want to have the free I'm good, otherwise I ride clipped in.
Recently tried a 29'er, rented one with flats and quickly remembered why clipless are my first choice. Pedaling through a section of roots, the crank hit a tall one and the foot came off the flat. So the clipless are staying on, but it's a personnal thing. Some will prefer clipless, some flats. I just like having the option on a ride.
