I was stripping the bike when I noticed the seat post clamp had the Hoffman logo. I could be a replacement part but I'm pretty sure the bike is an early 2000 Deebo or EP. Also yes i know it's wrong to paint it with the forks still on, I'm just to lazy to repack bearings. If I'm wrong about something or you know about the bike please let me know. I will post more pictures when it's done.

I’m not 100% that it is a Deebo, the head tube gusset isn’t right and the seat stays had a wishbone.
What doest the serial number on the bb say?
That’s not remotely a deebo! Shapes completely wrong. The deebo is effectively an oversized hb taj frame.
what’s the top tube length? EDIT: i don’t think yours is an EP, the EP’s all have a square looking wishbone on the chainstay/bb, which yours does not have. yours also doesn’t have a seat stay bridge. the older EP’s also had frame stands by the post as well as different seat stay tubes with bends near the middle of them.
I can say with 100% certainty that is a Hoffman EP not a Deebo. EPs are way more common and the seat stay is a giveaway. Also the angle and where the downtown meets the headtube shows it too just not as obvious as the seat stay.
