If you're using rim brakes then a BB30 > EBB will give you a quick fix way of adjusting the chain tension without having to readjust your brakes. But I guess adjusting chain tension from the BB is always a bit trickier, plus if you're using a BB30/similar shell, then doesn't it work like an expander, giving it the potential to work loose? Also can you do it with the cranks on?
Bc of those questions and Bc you're after discs, paragon-style rocker dropouts make more sense to me generally, but even more so if you're making a choice from scratch.... Rather than say SS'ing a BB30 CX frame.
