Can I still use dual brake lever on mechanical disc brakes front and rear? I’m not experienced with disc brakes. Also does it matter which one goes first on lever ? Thanks
 
The rotor is going to be tight fit. I m going to put it on the outside hub adaptor with the 6 holes that I marked with black line in picture. My big question here is do think I can get the caliper adaptor bracket down on axle ? Here’s the link to adaptor down too. I just don’t want to wear the paint off the rims with rim brakes. Or sand them.

Looks like you'll have to stretch your frame to get the disc in there.
The holder shouldn't be any issue.

Thanks. I thought it would stretch, but didn't how much it would stretch. I already had to modify the whole hub for chain alignment as you seen in photo above.
 
depends on which dual pull lever you use on which brake goes where. If you have the handle where the cables go into the handle with 1 infront of the other than the front cable goes in the front hole. If you use the handle where 1 cable is over top of the other cable then it doesn't matter where they go. The handle that has the cables in front of one another the front cable gets pulled a little further when you pull.
