Examples of disc brakes causing injury in pro races Before disc brakes became UCI legal there was a lot of people arguing that they were more dangerous than standard v brakes in bunch races. Often it was highlighted that a very hot spinning metal disc could slice through skin or tissue very easily.
Discs have now been in pro and local races for quite a while - I was wondering if there were any examples of this actually happening?
Cheers
