Just looking at DC Rainmaker's tech review and it looks like only 2 out of 19 teams are using disc brakes (assuming that a team would adopt it for every member at the same time). Teams adopting: Quick-Step and Trek-Segafredo
Does this surprise you? I'm in the market for a new bike and would have expected to see much greater buy-in from the pros given the normal model where pro level tech drips down to average consumers. But it seems like it's just the regular consumers buying disc brakes. Why aren't bike manufacturers pushing disc brakes on the pros to help them sell the product to us normal guys?
