Thanks for a reminder why I'm not that fond of disk brakes. I have never owned an MTB and had no intention of using one for a reason. The reason is that the bike was and is primarily a means of transportation for me. Specifically transportation on paved roads. Fitness is a welcome side effect, sport is only interesting if it somehow furthers the main purpose of getting around. YMMV. MTB got disks for the very reason that MTB are made to ride in mud as a kind of sport, so getting the brake out of the dirt zone makes sense. So does making those somewhat more resistant to wet mud. -- Wir danken für die Beachtung aller Sicherheitsbestimmungen
