I went to the local bike shop today to see what they said about some brake upgrades...my rim brakes are getting pretty worn and I am just not a fan after testing a bike with some decent discs. I asked the guy working if it would be worth it to upgrade to disc brakes and told him I had a Fisher Tassajara. He asked if I had mounts for them on my fork/frame, and if I had the adapters on my wheels, which I do. He said my best bet was a decent pair of mechanical brakes which wouldn't totally break my bank.

Do you guys agree? What do you recommend? I am pretty new to the upgrading and stuff, so I don't know much about what is quality. I guess my price range is pretty flexible...obviously I don't want to spend a huge amount and I don't need the absolute best, just an upgrade over what I have now. I'll be racing this spring/summer, hopefully on my lbs team Thanks!

Oh yeah, where is the hot place to buy from?
