If you wanted to keep the original front brake lever, you will need a BB7 road disc caliper, as well as a new front wheel.

All of this could easily cost you over $300 in parts alone even if you shop around for deals.
I didn't know the figures but I was spot on.

So it'll be cheaper getting a new bike in the long run.
