Been out of the game for the last year (been a nice reprieve), and will start training again. My B14 has been sitting in the garage for the last 12 months, and before I hook it back up to the KK Road Machine, I was going to get an overhaul, or at least replace rusty/old parts.
So, my question revolves around disc brakes. Can this bike (http://2014.feltbicycles.com/...RI/B-Series/b14.aspx) get disc brakes put on? Is there an advantage to disc brakes vs 'traditional' brakes?
No clue on this stuff, and I assumed (yeah, I'm lazy) that a search here would turn up 1000 answers, most of which aren't relevant to me.
ALSO: Bike is originally spec'ed for SRAM components. If I wanted to switch to Shimano, is that a switch I could make? I assume it would need to be a complete overhaul, which I am not opposed to at all.
May have some follow up questions. Thanks in advance.
