What year???
« on: December 14, 2015, 09:49 AM »
Hi peep's,

First up wanna know what year my Hoffman Taj was made? I'm thinking 97" due to the decals? Frame 1" thread less.
[ Attachment: You are not allowed to view attachments ]
Second is the era correct super stem, first stem maybe around 99"-2000"?
[ Attachment: You are not allowed to view attachments ]
or 95"-98"
Not to sure which year they changed over to 1-1/8?
Any advise much appreciated.

Ok cool didn't know that!

I was under the impression the early 1" had threaded headset & bolt which threaded internally into the steerer tube, or large nut with external thread (which mine has got) , thread less headset!

or later version's 1-1/8.
