it is a possibility .. (NB still a rim brake )
Disc brakes buy a new fork .. add up 2 wheels a fork the discs and levers ..
then compare the sum of those parts buys, [& Labor to have it done right].
with just buying a disc equipped bike already set up and ready to ride..
Thanks! I have decided to go with calipers (Tektro or similar), i would like to know what are the needed specs to get them online.
