I think discs are the hot setup in wet weather. Stopping power is better, no doubt, but they're cleaner. No mess on the rims. They do interfere with rack mounting, but Waterford/Gunnar have solved that with the Rock Tour. The caliper mount is on the chainstay. My dream bad weather road bike would be a Ti bike with discs and the chainstay caliper mount. Wonder if Habanero can do that?
