If you are only using sneakers with your MKS pedals, then you are at a serious performance disadvantage. Clipless pedals are far superior.

If you are using cycling shoes with slotted cleats that go into your MKS pedals, then, I don't know, there's not much of a performance disadvantage compared to clipless pedals, but I don't know why you'd want to use them except to feel retro.
