Nah ... electronic magnetic brakes reacting on tiny amounts of magnetic material embedded in the cf rim will be the end-of-the-century brake-through. No actual contact between the brake and rim. By that time every bike will have a tiny fusion reactor built into the bottom bracket so power won't be an issue.

People will still be moaning the loss of rim brakes.
