Its different since you're fixed, though.
Depend I guess, a fixed with low gearing, sweep back and a front brake would be fine with big MTB flat pedals.
I think big strap would be fine for everyday riding.

But then your back to just running regular flats with straps. Ie why have a more expensive clipless pedal, cleat, and adaptor.
I guess it works best if like Dom you have one pedal système on all your bikes, or if you only have one bike you use for everything. Although in the later case I'd just have double-sided shimano pedals like most people do.
Still I want some for some unknown reason.

Generally, if my bike is nice enough to require clippies, I don't want to lock it up outside the shops, so I have a beater with flats on it. Its different since you're fixed, though.
I'd just put flats and straps on it for general use, then change pedals when I rode it 'properly'. Takes 30 secs and is one less thing to think about.
