where did the XC thing come from? never heard of an MTBer complain about disc brakes. Besides, they've been there for a very long time now.

Can be avoided easily enough. Don't fall...

Perhaps they mean cyclo-cross?

maybe the discs aren't the problem but rather the bunches of pro cyclists vying for the same bit of tarmac at high speed

Tongue firmly in cheek.

What if race like the CTCT or 94.7 decide to follow suit? Lots of people riding MTB's with disk brakes in them.

Poor roadies - such fat tire envy, and now they cant even have disks!

 

Just buy a mtb - it will make you smile and greet again...

But then they'd have to learn to ride properly
