Wow, you can name a handful of 'road' frames that can take discs, it doesn't stop the fact that they are outnumbered about 100:1 by road frames that CAN'T take discs. What's your point?
And lets not confuse the definition of a road bike, eh? A 'Road Bike', as opposed to a touring, hybrid, cross or mountain bike etc, is a term which the vast majority of posters on this forum would understand to mean 700c, skinny tyred, drop barred bike with a lightweight frameset. There are very few road bikes, as described above, built to take discs. This is what the OP alluded to in his original post, so yes, there is an issue of availablility and I don't think there's a single person who'd disagree with that appart from you.
P.S. Yes, I'm so scared of this new fangled disc thingy that I already have two bikes running Hope Mono Mini's.
