    looked in the FAQs?

    an answer is there.

    I looked into this a few years ago & came across this:

    But if you read some forum posts, you'll see any adapters aren't exactly ideal and either front disc only or a suitable frame is the best ways to go.

    I used one when Disc's first started to come popular on an old Kona frame, though it worked ok once set up, I think it would be better to start with newer frame that is made for a rear disk brake.
    This is why!
