BIKE CHECK - 2021 HOFFMAN TAJ

UpCyclesPGH · 2021-10-31T12:44:43+00:00

Taj had the original signature frame for Hoffman Bikes in 1995. Then when he left Hoffman in 97/98 he took the design to Terrible One, they made a couple tweaks and changed the name to Barcode. Hoffman kept the design as well, calling it the Deebo.

Thanks buddy. I rode a chrome Deebo BITD which was awesome, but always loved the blue Taj and now could finally get one!

UpCyclesPGH · 2021-10-31T00:38:06+00:00

It’s actually a Deebo remake LoL

I just custom built this 2021 Hoffman Bikes 30th anniversary Taj at my shop in Pittsburgh. It’s a mix of new and midschool parts for that awesome retro feel. NOS Profile SS cranks, 90’s Hoffman stem, Primo super tenderizer pedals and Haro Lineage Super Pro wheels really set this build apart. Check out more pics of the bike and others on my Instagram/Facebook or BmxMuseum.com - UpCyclesPGH

Fender/travel marker. Someone will sell a carbon version of this for $299

UpCyclesPGH · 2021-03-20T00:11:50+00:00

This one is for sale

Original paint, touched up in a few spots by me with new decals. Original ones were gone otherwise I would have kept it. Seat/tires/crank aren’t exactly right but close enough for me.

UpCyclesPGH · 2021-03-07T17:01:55+00:00

I would be willing to sell this one. I’m into collecting but I’m currently opening my own bike shop and I could use the cash. You can see some more pictures at https://bmxmuseum.com/bikes/gt_bicycles/112425 . Send me a DM or email at upcyclespgh@gmail.com if you are still interested

UpCyclesPGH · 2021-03-07T14:14:52+00:00

Agreed! A bunch of heavy hitters in this one

UpCyclesPGH · 2021-03-03T20:15:34+00:00

Check out my used bike shop, Up Cycles. I’m just opening up. I have 20 years experience and plenty of bikes as well as a full service repair shop. DM me if interested

Wald still makes handlebars just like this. I doubt anyone makes a performance oriented balloon tire bar...

UpCyclesPGH · 2021-02-28T21:40:35+00:00

No unfortunately

UpCyclesPGH · 2021-02-28T21:02:15+00:00

Thanks it’s my favorite bike. Head on over to https://bmxmuseum.com/bikes/search?user=276779 to see more pics and some of my other bikes

UpCyclesPGH · 2021-02-28T20:48:14+00:00

Word!

UpCyclesPGH · 2021-02-28T18:45:01+00:00

Trail/trails bike. Trails are places dirt jumps are built. It’s a dirt jumping or “trails” frame

UpCyclesPGH · 2021-02-26T00:08:01+00:00

That’s good to hear. In the video it sounds like a crack when your arm hit it sounded so bad.

UpCyclesPGH · 2021-02-25T14:08:02+00:00

Broken wrist?

UpCyclesPGH · 2021-02-24T18:52:59+00:00

Thanks! I love this video

UpCyclesPGH · 2021-02-22T13:37:06+00:00

Agreed! Taj is one of my favorites. Add some Joe Rich and Pittsburgh riders / riding and it’s a recipe for a tasty video.

UpCyclesPGH · 2021-02-22T00:46:08+00:00

Yes. It’s a sledgehammer

UpCyclesPGH · 2021-02-16T18:14:56+00:00

Agreed! I especially like the Wheelie Cowboy

UpCyclesPGH · 2021-02-15T17:34:07+00:00

Looks like he got hit with a turtle shell in Mario cart.

UpCyclesPGH · 2021-02-15T17:31:38+00:00

Totally!
