We’ve only got Vs on the Dawes, didn’t die in the alps despite heavy load. Only ever almost died once, somewhere outside Jumieges where I misjudged the grade of a road that was 20% straight downhill into a the Seine.
By which I mean going Vs only will be fine, anything more than that will be good...

Thanks for encouragement!
Frame is built for rim brakes. Shall I just live with it? Have to have frame repair anyway, would people stick a disc mount on the back end? Would like to use the original fork with a V, thought I might set a rear V up as a drag.
