1999 GT Performer

Five years ago this month I lost my dad and miss him dearly.  Because my dad always supported my love for BMX with bikes, ramps, clothing and taking me to the track, I wanted to build a bike in his memory.  My dad's love was flying planes in the Air Force and he was a true leader and performer over his 30 year military career.  I thought it only fitting to restore this 1999 GT Performer in his honor.  The signatures you see are from his friends who served with him at the Academy in the late 50's.

1991 Haro Sport

In the 80's and 90's you could tell who made a frame from across the street. This '91 Haro is one of those unmistakeable frame styles that stands out among the rest of the competition. After I owned and sold a chrome one I immediately wanted another. It took about two years to find one again and I personalized the heck out of it with custom 990 brake mounts on the front and rear, custom mixed paint applied via airbrush, enough custom decals to cover four bikes and a laser engraved stem to top it all off.

1987 GT Performer

GT is one of my favorite old-school brands and when I spotted this for sale in Colorado Springs I had to have it.  It was already powdered blue so I didn't have to change anything but parts.  I did create these custom colored decals just to make it personal and mine.  This is one of the best all-time freestylers there is.

The Hoffman Polls Are Open

Voting for the Great Hoffman Bike Build Up is now open here. Stop in and see some seriously cool old and new Hoffmans in the submission thread.

The Great Hoffman Bike Build Up

Hoffman Bikes was started in late 1991 with the first Condor rolling out in the Summer of 1992. Mat, his friends and his company have made history these past twenty years. The 2012 product line includes the new old Condor replica that we've all seen here on BMXMuseum.com. Show your love for Hoffman's and build up a new ride or save an old one.

2007 Hoffman Rhythm

I remember seeing my first Hoffman Condor around 1994 or 95 at Sk8 Underground in Moreno Valley, CA (ridden by Eric Clark who worked there). I've loved them ever since and have been on a quest to build a respectable collection of Hoffman's from all years. This one popped up on Craigslist last year and I had to have it because of the color. I bought this exact same model in 18" for my oldest son years ago and always wanted one for myself. I swapped a few of the stock parts to give it a personal touch and love the way it rides. One of my favorites for sure.
