The main reason I posted was to see the reactions honestly. I've been riding disc brake bikes for over 5 years, and currently own more disc brake bikes than rim brake bikes, and I'm certainly not going out to replace all my rotors on my 6 sets of wheels with "safer" rounded ones, but we've had disc brakes for over 10 years and just this year has SRAM added significant rounding/chamfering to their disc brakes. Only shimano's newest high end rotors too. There is room for discs in everyday and mass start events if people are willing to acknowledge there is a small increase in risk in certain circumstances, and manufacturers minimize this risk in a cost effective manner going forward. Summed up nicely
Did people actually say it's impossible to cut yourself on a rotor, or just unlikely?
