It's strange going from a fleet of bikes down to just one. Nice in it's own way.

disc front and v rear - how does that feel? thinking of doing it on my own bike

Works really well. Had the chance to add disc tabs to the back but decided against it. Acts as a bit of fail safe too.
Avid arch rivals with compressionless cables and cool stops. Good modulation and power.

@amey Need that 0.95 fam! Yeah out of the UK for a while. Gravel commute win!

disc front and v rear.

They weren't uncommon back in the late 90's/early 00's, so it work well as the rear disc is always a touch too powerful, having v brakes mean you can actually get away with modulating both equally.
