the disc setup will be complete. they're a closed system so they'll have a certain length hose and be fully bled ready to be fitted. and yes with a disc. I'd get the juicy 5s, codes are heavy and not alot better. although the link to the 5s youve posted are fronts only. you could look at 7s too
as for forks you wont get much for brand new, try ebay, Fox Vanilla 125R go for about £130 depending how much scene tax there is. other than that look at marzocchi Dirt Jumper Series or MX series

by the way DO NOT buy hayes brakes they're terrible and a pain to work on really? I have hayes hfx-9 HDs, 8" rotor and bargain priced at £60 a set. works sh1t hot and I've not had to adjust the front since installing it. nothing but praise from me. ridden daily for about 2 1/2 months now.

well ive had HFX-9s before and i hated them, wooden feeling and if you need to bleed one its a right old chore! i think if they work leave them to it, they're not maintenance friendly IMO!

iv got a set of downhill nines and they are immense and you can get a brand new set for £100 now!!
As for forks I used to run dj2's but now run '07 dj3's which are heavy but very good on ym jump bike

Deore brakes are very good - shimano are reliable, avid are good but build quality in some areas is not as good as shimano
hopes are ace when they are a good set, a nightmare when they are a bad set - i've had both from new, one was best brake i've had, other was terrible - sticking piston issues, possibly poor machining.
I've got a set of fox floats 100 going spare I keep forgetting to ebay, but they are xc forks so probably not what you are after
