A lot of TTers race on fixed, but train on gears. If fixed was "harder" or "less efficient" then it'd be the other way around!

Cadence isn't really a limiting factor on power (unless you are in completely the wrong gear).

And do those fixed TTers beat the times of the geared ones?

(No need to answer that as I know they don't!)

I don't think anyone can argue that fixed is more efficient over undulating terrain and changing winds. So something that is less efficient is therefore harder work so therefore giving a better workout to achieve same average speed.
