Description

Taj Mihelich is arguably one of the most inspirational and creative BMX freestyle riders of all time, setting the tone for new school BMX from the 1990s onwards. 2025 marks 30 years since his original signature frame from Hoffman Bikes: the wishbone seat and chain stays made it one of the most revolutionary frames of the time, and the double wishbone went on to define the T1 Barcode he built with Joe Rich.

Our tribute build sits on the re-released 21.5" Taj frame and the Hoffman Superfork, blending mid and new school stock with a nod to the late 1990s. Old stock Primo, PWRBT and Fly parts run alongside a Federal Pro front hub, a Tall Order Drone rear and Odyssey Aitken Street tyres, with modern geometry and 11.11 kg on the scales.

Features

  • 30 year tribute build. Built on the re-released Hoffman Taj frame, 30 years on from Taj Mihelich's original signature frame and its wishbone stays.
  • Mid school parts, modern weight. Old stock Primo, PWRBT and Fly parts sit alongside new gear, and the whole build comes in at 11.11 kg.
  • Full Odyssey brake setup. An Odyssey G3 gyro, Monolever Medium and Evo 2.5 calliper, so you can spin the bars and still have a rear brake.
  • Odyssey Aitken Street tyres. Street tread in 20 x 2.25 on Salt Summit rims, with a Federal Pro front hub and a Tall Order Drone LHD rear.
  • 21.5" Hoffman Taj frame. A long top tube and the Hoffman Superfork with modern geometry, so the tribute rides like a current bike.

Assembly information

Your bike ships mostly assembled in the box. Finishing it takes most people 10 to 20 minutes with basic tools, and the video above walks through every step.

  • Fit the handlebars and line them up with the front wheel
  • Fit the front wheel, pedals and seat post
  • Check the brakes and tyre pressure before the first ride

Tools: Allen key set and a 15mm, 17mm or 19mm spanner for the pedals and axle nuts (bikes can vary between these three sizes). A socket is needed if installing pegs.

Rather have it done? Ask us about extra assembly before you order, or any local bike shop can finish the build for a small fee.

20 inch BMX sizing

A 20 inch bike is the standard adult BMX and suits riders from about 147cm up. At this wheel size the top tube is what changes the fit, so pick that by height.

Rider heightWheel sizeTop tube
60 to 91cm12"12 to 12.5"
81 to 106cm14"14 to 14.5"
96 to 122cm16"16 to 16.5"

160cm and up22"21 to 22.25"
160cm and up24"21.75 to 22"
160cm and up26"22 to 23"

Sizes overlap on purpose, so personal preference comes into it. If you land in two bands, riding style breaks the tie: longer for flow, trails and transitions, shorter for technical street and park.

How to measure

Stand your rider against a wall in the shoes they ride in, heels flat, and mark the top of their head. Measure from the floor to the mark.

Top tube is measured from the centre of the seat tube to the centre of the head tube, so it is not the same as the length of the tube you can see.

  • A 20 inch bike is the standard adult BMX and most riders end up there, so do not size a tall child down to a smaller wheel.
  • 22, 24 and 26 inch bikes are adult bikes with a bigger wheel, not bigger frames for taller riders.
  • Size up for stability through trails and transitions. Size down if you want the bike quick and twitchy for spins and grinds.
  • Top tube is fixed, but stem length, fork offset and bar position all shift how roomy the bike feels once you are on it.
