There is a downside to using road bars on the Change.
I have one configured w/ road bars as a gravel bike using the newer MTB frame.

It does affect the fold to become not as compact, unless you can arrange/fit your road bars at a height that enables you to turn in after fold and not hit the frame.
If riding and folding compact is what you want, then consider just leaving it as a flat bar.
I use my bike for local group rides as well as touring and headwinds can be beating on me the whole day for days, so I do prefer the road bars for whatever wind hiding it gives.
