yeah, comparing the specs might give some clues. But the bmxmuseum sheet is 1997 and the bikepedia is 1999. And don't know if bikepedia's comprehensive - says built only 1999, but seems there's a 1998 on museum (http://bmxmuseum.com/bikes/hoffman/27516), so may be best to ask the dudes in the Hoffman thread themselves about the difference between jr and George
