Cheers, Peter! Thanks for everything, your input is appreciated around here. Take it easy today... Can't imagine you've got riding weather out your way... But I'm sure you are used to that by now.

Hell, that's getting personal, Tater! What are you going to do when Campy comes out with road discs?

Hell, that's getting personal, Tater! What are you going to do when Campy comes out with road discs?

Well, they will be the very best, of course. I always said I would retire when road bikes got discs..maybe a little early.

I suspect that EPS mated to a form of Formula wet discs are probably somewhere in the factory at Vicenza. BUT my last conversation with the boys at Campagnolo NA about this is in their(including Campagnolo, SRL) conversations with the people Campagnolo designs this stuff for-pro racers-is that none really ask for nor want road discs for the common problems and issues mentioned. Compatibility with neutral service wheels, fade and failure during steep, STEEP descents, weight, aeroness.

SO...not gonna be in 2015(discs in the pro peloton), nor I suspect in 2016 either..but we'll see.
