A disk hub eliminates the possibility of stripping the threads, which is a serious concern if you are riding low gear ratios, like on singletrack.
Wait a sec. You have an aluminum frame that has 110mm spacing in the rear? That seems so odd.
By the way, I have a Redline Monocog, too. It's however a steel frame (a 29er) and is spaced 135mm. Did Redline make a different Monocog earlier? What kind of frame is that anyway, with 110mm spacing in the rear?
