FYI the new 2016 8H's have disc front hubs, and disc tabs on the fork. I also changed the gearing with 60T front chainring and 22T rear cog. I expect they will clear customs in the USA very soon. You will probably find some reviews on this forum in a week or two.

Hi, Yan, nice to hear from you again.

I wouldn't mind at all helping you find a distributor in Japan and even doing a little translation, regardless of payment. I simply have no idea how bicycle sales, container orders, and distribution work. That's why I was hesitant before to say, "yes, I can do that!"
