Isn't that the same setup Lee has used in the past? Familiarity with kit is important too. Plus there's a few hundred grams less weight to carry everywhere. I'm not sure what I'd do - it really depends on how much smooth(ish) double track/ fire road there is. If there's bugger all you can ride on the aerobars I'd question taking them.

Looks like Lee Craigie has gone for flat bars and no aero bars - I wonder whether we'll some of those on 'adventure'/gravel bikes regret it when it comes to the really sketchy bits, i think i'd like the added handling ability of wide flats
