yeah you can swap them.. either by swapping the trailing arm and ebrake cables and brake hoses, or by removing the hub, bearing, and brake setup from each trailing arm.

what do you hate about them? the only benefit disks have are better cooling (if you're overheating your rears you need to learn how to drive anyway) and easier maintenance.

also... BRAKES.

si brakes seems to work way better than cx and vx brakes imo. when you press it you get a reaction alot faster than the other ones.
