If you really need disc brakes have a reputable framebuilder braze or weld on the proper fittings. Brakes are too important to do half-assed.

I also agree that except for constantly riding in muddy or wet conditions, front only discs will give you all the power you need. Rear brakes lock easily enough as it is.
