Found this bike (never heard of the brand), but it’s made of Easton tubing, and has this weird disc brake tab. Any idea if you can use modern disc brakes on it?
Looks like mounting points for mudguards and a rack.

Possibly is2000. Looks a little wonky though from this point of view

Is it possible its a kickstand mount?

Look like a sketchy IS mount tacked onto a spindly unreinforced aluminum chainstay

It’s an early disc brake mount. Probably no modern bakes would work.

I am wondering if that is for a disc brake. Why would a frame be built for disc and v-brakes?

I owned a 1999 sintesi x-wing. it looks very much like that one. if that is disc brake mounts it is is mount, but that’s going to be small discs you can fit. I ran with v-brakes.

Looks similar to the mounts found on one of my old bikes. I used a shimano adapter to mount the brake. I’ll have a look and see if i can get you a reference number.
