The words " Rhen Shun " seems Chinese to me, though I cannot imagine original Chinese letters. We Japanese pronunciate Chinese letters differently from contemporary Chinese pronunciation. We imported the Chinese letters and pronunciations more than 1000 years ago.
    I have not got more information about the new Sugino Rene herse cranks yet. http://www1.odn.ne.jp/~aaa65240/suginoprody600.html The site of Sugino has not been up-dated recently. Isn't Sugino succeeding in rebuilding their business?
