Back in the 90's I used a bike with a "forward" seat post and clip on's. It worked pretty well for me. I did find the forward seat post a key to get me in a good aero position. I'd try the two bikes on a time trail on a similar course and see how the difference. A lot with depend on the set-up and your ability to get aero and comfortable. Good luck!
