    I am considering either a rebuild of my D27 or a swap to a 30 with Disc brakes. Question is, will I have to run a booster to power the brakes or is the stock master cylinder sufficient and what about a brake proportioner?

    A booster isn't necessary, but if you are going to put hanging pedals, you may as well. A proportioning valve is very helpful so that you can maintain even braking. I'd also suggest a dual res master cylinder if you are going to keep the frame mounted location..
