Great Video! I love all the details you covered. To answer your question; BTS did stand for "Better Than Sex" Story- One of my employees Dave Raffl had a story he always liked to tell about turning down a woman at a bar he was hanging out at, who wanted to go home with him, telling her he had to go racing the next morning, and racing a bike was better than going home with her and she could not believe he thought that riding bikes was "Better Than Sex"..... And I had to use name for something and I thought my overbuilt, oversized, super heavy street/jumping Morales frame was worthy of the name that my employee loved to use for describing his love of riding over girls. There you go. -Bob Morales
One of the local shops had one for sale over here in Australia back in late 97, i went up to buy a Hoffman Taj, but nearly pulled the pin on the BTS. They were cool frames
Couldn't go wrong with the Taj! A friend of mine showed up with a Taj complete to our trails one day and let me ride it. I don't know what kind of magic that bike had but I swear I was instantly a better rider on that bike, I didnt want to give it back. LOL
My 03 Hoffman condor pro team is a beefy beast of a vert/park bike , Alex triple wall rims xs 4x4 48h front hub, odyssey v-3 cassette 48h , Ramp room gen 2 love handles , it’s 43 lbs odyssey hammerhead bar ends , also have dirt bros patriot, Rad bts such a tank 😊
Ive always thought the Hoffman Condor with a set of love handles was one of the most perfect Mid-School bikes ever! Congrats on having such an awesome rig!
Fantastic! Yes I have the version 2. Ride UK got me aware (fall in love with) this frame back in 1997. They also mentioned it was definitely BTS = Better Than Sex" :) Thanks for the video :)

Love your videos, man. Love the little poke at Doug DeMuro 😂 Can't wait for the next video to come out
DK S.O.B Honorable mention
@@there_is_nothing_here 💯
A lot of early 2000 Mongoose's like the Rouge, Brawler, etc had the plastic cable guides if you were trying to source one
Thanks for the suggestion. I'll keep a look out
Boom!!!! That frame was serious beef.
So beefy PETA tried to stop them from releasing it!
I had 2 STA's and a Pork 💪🏽
You are forgetting about the dk sob . I still own one. I believe it's a 97. In matte green. Talk about beefy frame. Rip colin winkleman
You're right, the SOB was awesome, and so was Winkleman
It's a tank! The flatland frame was way better.
what a heap
