I'm considering a Swift but I would really want drop bars (and probably a FD) so I'm guessing the stock v-brakes would have to go. That led me to think well, why not replace them with discs, and I saw a pic on xootr's site of a Swift with disc brakes.

Actually I have never put a drop bar on a bike or done any work with brifters etc so I don't really know how it would work... most of my bikes have been flat bars but I've been addicted to my road bike since I bought it 6 months ago. The only problem is that it's not very portable, hence the Swift idea.
