I was just looking for another good set of wheels on Craigslist and 80% of the wheels for sale were both more expensive that those from Hong Kong and were disk wheels.

If disks are so popular and if people are standing in line to get them, why would there be so many disk wheels for sale and why would there be so many top end wheels?

I think that more and more people are experiencing the major disadvantages of disks and are ending their use of them. All of the previous disk bikes I had also had provisions for rim brakes if you had the proper wheels. What are the odds that these people are returning to something tried and true?

Neutrinos have bad breadth.
