It's a tough one. They're great in the wet but you need to take extra care with them.
I've bent mine a few times despite having a great Max Power guard.
I'm undecided whether to continue with a front disc for the next build.
BB7 for sure with good cable. Cable is really important to get the most out of the brake.
They're also quite heavy.
V-brakes are simple and effective. Light and easy to adjust. Just not amazing in wet conditions...
