Advice on vintage Supercycle bikes?

Hey all, new to this forum and proper biking in general. I'm a student looking for bikes to commute here in university. Been seeing a lot of listings for vintage Supercycle bikes. From what I gathered, looks like its a Canadian Tire brand, and people generally have mixed feelings about them.

tbh, I don't need a serious bike, but do prefer something useable and somewhat of a "beater bike" that I can work on and use to learn about fixing it up and all. Most are between 60s-80s, with a few having vintage disk brakes.

A friend advised against ones with vintage disk brakes because it'd be hard to find replacements in case anything happens to them. Anyone have any advice?
