well people believe disc gives better modulation and better feel, especially in the wet. This is supposed to allow them to feel the limit of traction without exceeding it. That's the whole idea of better feel and modulation, isn't it? If guys are still riding faster than they should be, then is it because they're not "feeling and modulating"?
