I'm considering disc hubs even though I have not yet committed to disc brakes. Except for a minor weight penalty and a cash penalty (indecision tax), is there any downside to say, DiscHubs vs. Classic King hubs?

If you compare Chris King DiscoTec and the Classic. They are the same quality and internal just Disk one has mounting for rotor. To answer your question, No disk hubs are not prone to taco.

You'd think so by looking at the amount of dish in the wheel. But it doesn't seem to be a problem. Could be that disc wheels aren't built with stupid light spokes.
