Gunnar makes some, but they'll cost a TON more to get both brake options, PLUS the $800 they'll charge for the S&S mod. If I could find a frame comparable to the Double Cross without the (in my opinion) really funky geometry, I would absolutely consider it.
Steel, disc & canti mounts, vertical drop-outs, break-apart. I see the challenge. Nothing to my knowledge except the Wazoo with the couplings added meets this, and the geometry is better also. If you would reconsider on the disc brakes, all kinds of options emerge.
