What form do you suggest they take? There's absolutely nothing wrong with them in their current form and the safety concerns are easily addressed by making disc covers mandatory.

Current form is without covers. Do covers make wheel swaps more difficult ?
Wait until a rider wins a stage of a race due to being able to descend faster in the wet because he has disc brakes, then you'll see more pros making the choice.
I always thought the limiting factor on descending was tyres and getting the line right rather than brakes ?

Do you think the Peloton should adopt disc brakes in their current form ? If so do you think the safety concerns (rotors, mixed brakes in the Peloton) aren't valid ?
