Thanks for the great tips everyone.

My mistake - it's actually the LHT Disc.
UPS status shows delivered & gf sent me a surprise picture





I'm actually looking into Tiagra STI's & now I'm in the process of looking around for a 26 inch wheelset w/ disc hubs; may just build one up.

I'll keep everyone updated & any other suggestions, I appreciate !
Not really familiar with the touring category of cycling so this is a good learning experience for me.
