Has anyone put new/better brakes on their spree? mine doesn't seem to want to stop very quickly or very quietly and I wanted to maybe put aftermarket brakes or just something that is better then what I have now.

not mush conversions would be a direct bolt on. The easiet bet is to get a SYM DD50 Disc front end and modify it. That would be the most easy to find.Its always a good project if your into Mc Gyvering things!
