Not being a disk user, I may lack crucial experience required to
understand, but since one has to use heavier tubing than one might
otherwise want in order to resist the hub area forces imparted by disks -
is it really THAT contrary to let the ride quality that results from tubing
choices take priority over brake choice? Now, if it were a matter of
selecting brakes that don’t work over those that do, that would be a
different matter, but the suggestion that Cantis and v-brakes don’t work is
silly. They do, they really do, and they don’t bring the frame
design/construction costs that disks do.

All disclaimers states above apply of course, but this strikes me as a non
issue.
