P-R: 5/6 of the final break *do* likey disc brakes

The more likely explanation is their supplier pushed it on them. I mean, there is no rim brake Roubaix anymore from Spesh, right?

Quickstep is on disc all year on all their bikes.

Lots of TAs have a 'feature' where you have a lever to tighten/loosen..then, on DT, you lift the lever to position it.

I was a little surprised at how hard they resisted going to discs. It was fairly obvious that the sponsors wanted to go to discs, and they were eventually going to have to adapt.

Sorry, meant to say the cleanest system where the lever is hidden and / or removed thus making the side profile cleaner.

A lot of TAs have a lever of course, but only a few units like the DT can either be removed or taken off so the end of the TA isn't jutting out a lot. With the DT you have to put the handle/lever somewhere, but in the Schwinn the lever goes back into the the center of the TA so it's always available for use and never lost.
