Just to keep this dumpster fire going, here's one man's view of how the global bike conglomerate forces reluctant pros to ride with murder discs that offer no benefits over angelic rim brakes:

“I’ve had some bad accidents in my life so I don’t risk my life on a random corner but I’m confident enough with the disc brakes now, especially to stay with the guys bombing it on the descent, but I’m just not going to be the one attack. We came into those finals with the roundabouts that are wet and it went from hot and humid and ice socks on your back to kind of drizzly and cold and rainy, so your body’s just like, ‘What the hell is going on?’ It was a wild ride.”
