I'm after Discs as there is no rim wear, so only the rotor and pad should ever need replacing. Theoretically they will also have better stopping power in the wet- of which there is much of in Manchester. Modulation should also be better than side pulls if set up correctly.
I'm not convinced about the Kaffenback- for the same reasons I discounted my Roadrat. Though with the all the love for Pompinos it could also be worth a test ride along with the pomp itself.
