They have two models I'd love the test ride, the Hokkaido, and the Kyoto.
Both are equipped with Nexus hubs and dynamos. Nice. They have suspension
forks--but I think they would have been better served building them out of
chromo as you mentioned they'd done in the past. Would probably shave a
couple pounds off of the 38 pound weight for those who care about such
things. Alu frame and doing fork probably due to customer demand. ;-)
