So like so many of us COVID has basically taped an extra fuel storage strait around my gut. I made a deal with myself that if I can lose 30lbs I would consider myself worthy of spending money on speed and buy some race wheels (something I've always wanted but never had) assuming racing has come back. I had a discussion with the LBS about in 2023 buying a new TT bike after I pay off my car (yeah buddy). They recommended not getting race wheels and waiting until 2023 because I should be upgrading to disc brakes. So it's kind of a two tear question. So it got me thinking. As far as I've been lead to believe rim brakes are still faster than disc, but every single manufacturer seem to be pushing disc brakes. At this point if you're not forced to spend any cash is it even a good idea to invest anything in rim technology? Or do you think rim will always have a couple sets of wheels and plenty of replacement parts to go around?
