This is an open discussion thread for the news Professional road racing will soon be using disc brakes!

It appears to be a matter of time that all road bikes will be fitted with disc brakes.  Backing this technological shift is the Union Cycliste Internationale (UCI), which confirmed that it has approved the use of disc brakes for selected events in August and September 2015.  Each team has been given the green light to out-fit their bikes with disc brakes for any two events of their choice in the two-month time frame.
