Need a rear disk brake for my winter bike - any good deals out there?

Totally blown my old Juicy 5 on the rear this morning, been coaxing it back to life after every muddy/gritty ride for the last couple of months. Now it must R.I.P.

Anyone spotted any good deals recently? Don't need a disc necessarily.

New 2012 Shimano brakes are excellent, highly recommended. They come with resin pads which will only last a couple of wet rides so get some sintered replacements ready.

Cheers guys, unfortunately the XT brakes are only available on order approx 2 weeks. Most of the Shimano brakes on Rose website are also Euro set-up, i.e. right lever = rear brake.

I need some quicker than that or no riding over Xmas for me 🙁
