2010(?) Co-Motion Mocha questions - upgradable?

I am looking into buying 2010(???) Co-Motion Mocha with couplers as a "travel touring tandem" and perhaps as a "gravel/ easy trails" tandem. Currently have BIkeFriday Twosday for that purpose but thinking that this could be an upgrade. Anyway, here are my questions for those who own or owned a similar model:
1) The bike comes with rim brakes that is why I put a question mark for the seller's claim of the year. Not sure how hard and expensive would it be to change it to disk brakes.
2) While we are at it - are there options to put in the front suspension fork? Not sure if anyone makes decent ones for 26 that would be ok for tandem.
3) For those who had both 6x SS-coupled tandems and BikeFridays - can you comment on how these compare in terms of the packing/unpacking setup?
