Title: --- Hoffman Flash XL 1997 ---
Post by: Stodgy on September 09, 2006, 11:57 AM: Finally got round to taking some pictures of the Flash!

Rather than a traditional race build, I went for a Miami Beach Cruiser look as the Hoffmans just seem to lend themselves to fun builds. I'm really pleased with it, just looking for a Hoffman Easy Chair seat and it's done. Parts list at the bottom...hope you like!

Post by: Stodgy on May 21, 2010, 01:34 PM: Wow - this is an old thread! Almost 4 years old!

The bike was very different in the end - full race gear and got rid of the retro-tat on it.

I'll find a pic later.
