It is illegal to use them in UCI races. Some of the non UCI events will allow them. It may change in the future.

Some of them do … but they are not legal for competition. I’ve heard they are worried about injury from sharp rotors in crashes … but I don’t see how it is different from XC? Disks are definitely heavier, but we are talking an oz or two. Anyways most of them don’t because they are not legal to use in competition.
