I've just thrown my fifth set of brake pads in the bin - if I were to build this bike again today I'd definitely use a disc brake on the front.
I think I'd also go for mudguards with more wrap - these are good, but the problem with good is that you get frustrated that they're not great, which happened yesterday when the spray soaked my shoes.
I might experiment with some PDW ones, but I'm more tempted to make my own, which would be a fun I think.
Has anyone seen a commercially available carbon fork with a standard road A/C that mounts a disc caliper?
