    Are your wheels disc ready? If not you'll have to budget for new wheels too...

    And I take it that your frame and forks have the correct mounts...?

    For £50 your deffo looking and second hand and to be honest I wouldn't touch second hand brakes with a very long pointy stick. Bear in mind that very often they can be the difference between an enjoyable ride and a quick visit to casualty.

    IMHO you would be better off saving your pennies for a bit and buying new when you can afford it.

    To be honest, a £50 set of V's would perform better than the same spent on discs.
