Meet The Hoffman Bikes Family (USA edition) **high bandwidth warning**

I collect USA made Hoffman bikes gear (92-96).... The Condor frames are mainly what I wanted to collect but I have one of each of the major frame revisions of the Big Daddy as well.

I managed to track down all the Condor frames, forks and super forks except for the 94 Condor fork and the gen 2 superfork. But I got pretty much everything else.

Finally got them out for a group shot. It was a bad day for taking pics of chrome bikes because it was so sunny, but I had a limited window that I was allowed to use the roof so it had to be done. I carried 7 bikes up 5 stories of stairs and got some pics!

Enjoy!

92 Condor
This ones almost catalog correct. Pegs are incorrect, the levers are the wrong colour and the grips are wrong but close. I thought the Odyssey plastic pegs really worked for this bike.

93 Condor
This is the only known complete survivor of these found, believe it or not the stickers would have been the same colour as the 92 above.... Was lucky to be able to buy this earlier in the year. Even if for no other reason that I was able to get 93 Condor forks and SE patriot bars in one go! It was missing the tyres when it was found but it's had the correct tyres added since. Otherwise every part was OG.

I have a feeling those frames may have hit the market in the last year.. could be wrong though.

Yes, very. SE made Hoffman Patriot bars.

The ones on the 94 and 96 are the same bars but not made by SE, they just have different end caps on the clamp bar.

Re: Meet The Hoffman Bikes Family (USA edition) **high bandwidth warning**

So I was looking at your reference thread, and I might have a 94 HB fork on my WAL Riot.

A friend of mine had a Condor from I think the 2nd or 3rd run, and I seem to remember trading forks.

They're same same as the gen 2's really. With no pegs they are cooler because you can see the peg boss but when the pegs are on there you can't really tell them apart. The stem on there is a gen 2, I had to shim it with a coke can....real pain to get that right. Would you believe a top nut popped up for sale on here for a gen 1 superfork....just on it's own, an orphan nut... one of the local aussie guys grabbed (i was too slow) it and it will possibly end up in my hands. I just happen to be missing the nut.

The 95 F+F is high on my like list...not so much the build as a whole but definitely F+F.
