I ride Time also. One of the biggest reasons is the 10 degree easy release cleat.

Clipless pedals on my road and gravel bikes. Flat pedals on my mountain bike. Works for me.

I like (have) Time RXS, have been using them since 2006 when I bought my first new bike since 1977 and gave up qull pedals with toeclips.
Good float, easy to clip in, cleats don't scratch the floor if I forget something and have to go back inside. Relatively tolerant of dirt if I have to stop and pee. Big enough that I can ride briefly in regular shoes.

I'd venture to guess that "little time" is spent in traffic and really getting used to the pedals. It's been a few months now and I'll be honest, I'm still scared to approach intersections lol. I still try to roll up to it and not have to get off. I do have my pedals set to the loosest possible which has kept me from faceplanting once already. Now with that said, I'll ride my hybrid which has flat pedals and I immediately miss the connected feeling I have with clipless. I may even throw some hybrid SPD-flat pedals on that hybrid.

That may be very true for mountain bike or gravel, but for road riding, (you were not specific) I have used Look and Shimano for decades on the road and never had an issue with mud clogging since I don’t put my feet down in mud, just tarmac. Time may have excellent pedals, but for the road, I see no reason to switch for a non-issue. You showed your hand toward bias against Shimano about not being able to switch bikes. I would think carrying the proper size Allen wrench could readily swap pedals between bikes in less than 3 minutes.

I have ridden using rat traps and clipless on road and mountain for decades. The MTB pedals were Shimano and they did clog but was alway able to slam my foot on a rock or something to clear them. I used them because I am primarily a roadie and like to be able to sprint up hills out of the saddle. I could see pinned flats being very beneficial if you lived in a muddy area.

Now we need VegasJen to chime in. She just may have an opinion.

I built up a new road bike to ride clipless with confidence. Since my hip replacements, that means a step-through frame. I have a pair of the Shimano flat/SPD combination pedals, but after using them I really feel that they are awkward in either usage, in no small part because orientation be comes important, and a distraction. So in order to keep casual-shoe-capable, I bought some stealth cleats, this is, SPD shoes that look like tennis shoes. That way I can ride to a doctor appointment on my new double-sided clipless-only pedals and not click and clack around, slipping and wobbling while looking like a dork after I get there. That's important here, in my mind at least, although I may have crossed that line already, I'm afraid. :p

Crankbrothers only make MTB pedals, and he mentioned earlier that he uses MTB pedals.

To me clipless pedals are like car seat belts, you quickly get used to them and then riding without doesn’t feel right at all.

Appears I missed that in his original post: “Clipless and flat pedals both have their pros and cons. However, I enjoy using clipless for sprinting. Clipless pedals also help to reduce the strains on my knees and quads when I do a quick acceleration from a slow speed.”

Just adding to this thread to make it to 10 pages.

That sounds exactly like me. I love that feeling of being connected to the bike.
