As much discussion as I've seen indicates that Pros will be adding another set of bikes to the pile of equipment they take to races, alongside the multiple wheel sets with different tyres. Disc brakes will need to get lighter to become universal, since reliable race worthy cross bikes are still well over the minimum weight and the fact that they have to be carried makes keeping them light even more important than it is for road bikes.
