Thanks Mark

Are they easy to fit and set up, what about changing the rear on the side of the road?

Do you know a rough cost? dont wanna bother the man at this stage of planning..cheers

I have fitted a DacTek one which places the disc inside a new slightly larger rear hub. The hub has a tubeless tyre fitted direct and held onto the layshaft with 5 allen key screws (lay shaft needs to be in good condition).
It took a while to get it set up correctly, which was to do with the servo box position by the new break peddle and actually bleeding the brake properly.
It was expensive, but in my opinion looks better than an externally mounted ones.
