For roadies yes, MTBers had embraced disks in the 90’s and become
mainstream by late 90’s and the various mounting standards!
Thanks for a reminder why I'm not that fond of disk brakes. I have never
owned an MTB and had no intention of using one for a reason. The reason
is that the bike was and is primarily a means of transportation for me.
Specifically transportation on paved roads. Fitness is a welcome side
effect, sport is only interesting if it somehow furthers the main
purpose of getting around. YMMV.
MTB got disks for the very reason that MTB are made to ride in mud as a
kind of sport, so getting the brake out of the dirt zone makes sense. So
does making those somewhat more resistant to wet mud.
