Dunno, maybe not a great TT position on your bike? Maybe you're not a great bike rider (nothing at all meant by that)? All I know is that every girl/woman I ever worked with used a rear disc at EVERY TT. Some mentioned the wind but none ever had any serious problems and it was for sure faster. They had a 3 time Olympic TT champion as either a teammate or director and she made sure I put a disc on every bike. I tried to get a hold of a disc for the track (Hellyer, outdoors) every time I could, which wasn't often enough but it was never a big deal. I think a lot of people get it in their head that it will be a problem and succumb to that.
