Thank you for all the answers.

Dawn of Co-Motion mentioned the possibility of a stiff disc fork on T@H several years ago before Co-Motion started offering a front disc brake. I am sure that he could give you an answer and some insight as to how they worked out the disc fork. If the disc fork is still a concern then you could spec a V brake on front and a disc on back. That combination works well on my tandems.
