HANG OUT will be held again this year at the Aichi Prefectural Forest in Shinshiro City, Aichi Prefecture!
This is an exhibition-style interactive event gathering renowned domestic and international brands specializing in trail running and backpacking. Additionally, the Damonde Trail, a trail running event, will be held at the same venue on Sunday, making for two days of fun that transcends various genres. And just like last year, this year's flyer design is by Mr. Motonobu Nakamura of EDIT, who we also work with at RAL.
Of course, Circles will be there with plenty of things prepared for our booth!
And this year, guess what!! With the full cooperation of Aki Corporation, we have teamed up to make it possible to unveil the KONA 2019 models in Japan for the very first time at the HANG OUT venue!!
In fact, with the KONA 2019 model exhibitions for shops not even held yet, Aki Corporation has kindly provided us with 10 carefully selected, unreleased domestic models—mountain bikes, gravel roads, and touring bikes—handpicked by JUS specifically for the visitors of HANG OUT!! You'll have to wait and see which models will be lined up on the day!!
What’s more!! As I mentioned at the beginning, HANG OUT is an interactive exhibition event, so you won't just be looking at the KONA 2019 models; you'll actually be able to test ride them!! We are planning ride tours within the park, and since there is a gravel double-track inside the venue, we want you to jump on as many bikes as possible and experience their latest specs for yourself!! We have even received permission to post on social media, so please brag to everyone that you were the first in Japan to test ride the KONA 2019 models at HANG OUT!
And that's not all!!
For those of you who find a bike you love after test riding it, we will be accepting orders at the HANG OUT venue just like last year!! There might even be a little something special if you order on the day!?
In addition, you'll be able to test ride the SimWorks Doppo ATB, and we will also be exhibiting and selling RAL products and the newly arrived BEDROCK SANDALS / Cairn3D!! We are bringing a lot to this year's HANG OUT, so please look forward to it!!
I hope to see those of you who usually can't make it to our Nagoya shop at the venue.
Please make sure to clear your schedules for October 13th (Saturday) and 14th (Sunday)!
