More Info:
I plan on outfitting this frame with entirely modern components. I can install disc brakes but I need a Trek adapter bracket for the back, so I'm gonna get a disc wheelset and some Avid BB5 Calipers. I want to run it 1x10 with a SRAM X9 group, and a cheapish 120mm fork.

they're not super sick mtb sw4g tho.
but really I have these avids and nothing else to put 'em on so i'm probably gonna use 'em for this. unless I find the money for a cx build soon, then maybe I'll keep the v brakes.
