Nope, no mounts. Therefore no discs..

You could if you changed the hubs and the forks(ones with mounts).
But you wouldn't want to do it. Might end up costing you a fair bit
Hubs+New Forks(with mounts)+Disk Brakes=$$$$:D

holy shit are you mentally incapacitated? look on the DMR website and find out for yourself! better yet, look at the photo and notice that NO there are NOT disk mounts on the frame, and thus NO you CANNOT run disk brakes on the bike as it is.

solution= fly brakes on cromo rim of some sortunfortunately not the solution - they run v-brakes, not U brakes. hence, the solution is more along the lines of Avid Ultimate V-Brakes

you can get a disc mount that goes onto your axle, meaning u can run a rear disc, but u will have to get a hub that will be able to carry a disc.

Do what leitch said- Avid V's. You'll end up spending more on the setup than you did on the bike in the first place (which is usually acceptable in this sport, but outlay outweighs return in your case)
