Technically yes. But, for the Chang Jiang 750 their effectiveness can depend. The Chang Jiang 750 is a very heavy bike, so disk brakes in the front will not make a major difference. You will still need to rely heavily on the rear brake to stop. A disadvantage of having a hydraulic front disk brake is that if get a flat tire, the 4th (spare) wheel will usually not a disk brake on it. Make sure that you get a proper installation and you will be able to rotate all 4 wheels using the same disk brake. Some Chang Jiang 750 bikers that have disk brakes have told us that the difference is only slightly noticeable.
