Disc wheels on a bike = awesome in a straight line with no wind. What works for cross-wind? Take a look at what the top competitors are riding on at Ironman World Championships in Kona, HI.

Essentially, a disc would double your side facing surface area making it extra hazardous. What do bikes use during speed record attempts?
