Next time I visit my parents' house I'm going to resurrect my father's Hoffman. It was nice back in the late '90s when he was riding, hopefully I do it justice.

Those are some really short bars.

hockeyteeth 10-19-07 11:35 PM

That's your only diss on the bike?! They are just foreshortened because of the angle. Perception's funny that way.

I put some Oury grips on the bars yesterday. What do you guys think of Ourys? I'm not liking them on the bmx. The flanges don't even face inward toward the levers, which seems kinda dumb to me.

wethepeople 10-19-07 11:42 PM

Ourys lick so much ass, I hate them with a passion. Kill them with fire.
