Just do it. For me discs are a must. Minimal maintenance and superb stopping power. I wouldn't want to go back to rim brakes. I like being able to outbrake cars

Yep, 4 miles each way. Take your time on the way in and you won;t need a shower. Maybe take some wet wipes or a flannel to wipe yourself down with in a toilet cubicle.

To those who won't commute because of no showers, you just have to work at it a little. I commuted 17 miles each way for 4 years, 2 or 3 times a week to a place with no showers.
I'd always have a shower before I left home.
When I got to work I'd strip down in the disabled toilet and then wipe myself down with a wet cloth, towel and liberal deodorant application.
Usually had to put a fan on my desk on for a bit to cool down in summer.

It really made me appreciate where I work now with full facilities. Couldn;t be happier with where I work now for commuting.
