It´s obvious where a thread like this would go.
An exercise in doom and negativity. Pessimism and schadenfreude. Well... i have participated so there is that.

I have a feeling things may equilibrate after a while. Rims are not like drum brakes, they're basically big rim brakes and the Venn diagram for use cases doesn't seem to overlap completely...interesting to see how things shake out in a few years.

Rim brakes are still great. So are discs. Ride bikes, have fun. Accept the vagaries of the semi-free market.
