I think I read something somewhere that you actually get better braking power with the cross levers than the aero levers.
hmmmm this is good information, thanks!. I had already figured out that the cross levers weren't expensive - I just don't feel overly confident with the main brake levers since I can only get two fingers to touch them... I am going to wait and see what my fitter/LBS recommends, but I won't cry if I wind up with the cross levers.

Looking forward to riding my new bike outside, finally, late this afternoon! Now it is time for bed
