All the guys telling me to ditch my friction brakes for disc? Not sold on the hype.

I've been running friction brakes for 12 years on a Grove RT in Austin and never had a drop. A buddy swapped to disc last summer and blew a caliper seal on a 10-ton pick. Has anyone else seen disc set ups fail more than they admit?

Boy, I once torqued a bolt so wrong my toolbox ran away from me.

Disc brakes have their own set of headaches, don't they.
