I think I should put it this way: bikes are probably most definitely the right choice, unless your using certain karts that make up for how good bikes are. Take for instance the Jetsetter. Once you know how to use it, you can be just as good or better against someone with a bike, and it becomes safer in normal races, so you can drive without the fear of being bumped while performing a wheelie. It really just depends how good you are :P
