Those disc brake adapters are generally considered unsafe. The frame just wasn't designed for the torque on the stays like that. Last time a company you could actually sue tried it they had to add a torque arm going up to v-brake boss:


Even for people with steel bikes who can weld an adapter on, they generally add an extra bar of reinforcement between the seat stay and the chain stay when they do for this reason.
