I am thinking of upgrading the equipment I have on a 11 year old mountain bike.
I am mostly concerned with the brakes. I currently have it fitted with V-brakes but would like to upgrade to discs, however because of the age of the bike I only have the necessary mounts on the front (retrofitted rock shoks).
I would like to know if there is any benefit from only having a disc brake on the front (The front seems to have the biggest effect on stopping a bike) If not are there brackets available that would allow the fitting of a disc brake on the rear of an old style bike.
Any help is much appreciated
