That’s a beauty. Yes, read that build - painful - going to get some DA cables for the rest and stick with jagwire at the front.

Sounds like a good plan! I'm super happy with mine, finally got round to getting some 38mm carbon rims for it before christmas, so will have new shoes soon. Also, definitely take it to RadBikes if you have any issues, Tom and Ben are great. I could see if I can find that noodle I used for the front brake and drop it in there for you - it helped a bit from memory but I have hydro now

Yes, ish

28 is fine, not sure about 30. Probably depends more on the surface you're riding on
and @Lanterne_Rouge nope, no braze ons at all
To elaborate, rear cable disc is a PITA, but doable. I think @PhilDAS found Dura Ace outer to be the best as its compression-less but a lot more flexible than other compression less cables.
Edit: actually found my old post about Spyres and looks like 160 rear might be better actually as it gives a clearer curve to the brake cable
Neither frame exit point is ideally angled for cables and anything over 140 mm discs. But again, it will work with 160https://www.lfgss.com/comments/12924655/
