can this bike upgrade the brakes from rim to disc in the future?

Cannot. Even if you want to, it's not cost effective. You need to buy new brake disc, wheelsets that can accomodate discs, etc). It's also not safe to upgrade just like that because disc brake forks are slightly different in construction to rim brake.

or just get the bike that have been upgraded to disc brake? is it cost effective?

just get the disc brake if that's what you want. But take note that this Twitter is mechanical disc brake and not hydraulic.

ayam using revant. ok je. lagi tahan dari ori oakley
but if mau nitpicking la, the view ada very very sikit distortion. not as perfect zero distortion like ori oakley. i'd say negligible
oso the fit ada sikit gap dgn the frame. maybe coz the lens thinner a bit than ori but definitely no rattling. fit ngam n snug n secure

I agree on this. I own an optical shop and i ride too.
i brought in Never hide and wear them myself, for the price its more than enough, even their photochromic lenses not too bad.

Intro a few cyclist to try them and they're enjoying them, especially for those who needed power adapter clip ons.

Just get a disc brake bike. although its heavier but the stopping power is much superior.

but disc brake bikes needs more maintenance compare to rim brakes.
- disc rubbing
- contaminated discs
- bent discs
etc. some you can just diy to solve them.

i do miss the simplicity of rim brakes, currently looking for a 2nd hand TCR rim brake, extra bike for collection. laugh.gif
