Something i forgot to mention is that disk brake PADS and rotors do seem to have much longer longevity compared to shoes. Anywhere from 100% to 200% longer mileage life for the pads.

But the shoes are so easy to replace and relatively inexpensive that a conversion to disk is just not justifiable. Or at least not to me. I'll embrace just about any kind of conversion if it deems SIGNIFICANT benefit. Even an SBC transplant. Not there yet tho.
