UCI to ban disk??
Moderator: Moderator Team
So there is a murmur going around my shop that the UCI is planning on banning disk brakes for cross in 2015 (road will still be allowed). This came from our Scott rep and the supposed reason is that people are getting cut up to badly in crashes. Can anyone conform or debunk this?

LOL. Being cut by brake discs. Some mountain bike races are very crowded, yet I've never seen or heard that happen.
I've been burnt by them in a cross race. (A pillock swinging his bike around whilst being lapped)
And seen someone put their hand on one in an mtb crash. He should consider himself lucky to be wearing gloves. Not that they could have been called gloves after the race.........
