Great pics.  :4_17_5: :daumenhoch:

The first Hoffman forks were a bit dodgy as the head tube was so thin. That soon got changed to a thicker gauge tube.  :)
I find it strange how this wasn't picked up by Matt. As he had been riding them hard for a while.  ???

i used to run zima forks after...............think they had the same problem, the forks themselves were way strong as were the zima forks but the stearing tube was the problem.......

The first ones were made in the states by se racing. Then Hoffman started to make them themselves in the ramp room factory. But that was only for a while as production costs were so high. So eventually production went to Taiwan.

plus it didn't help having such a laid back head angle.
