Anyone between 25 and 45 years old that has raced BMX will know who Greg Hill is. I won’t give you a history lesson (you can read about Greg here), but I will say that most of my elementary and jr. high school days were spent reading about Greg in BMX Plus! and BMX Action magazines. Greg Hill Products (GHP) was a new company back then, making frame sets and bars. Though they didn’t last long, GHP is back again with much interest among those that know the brand name.

So I wanted to build a new race bike, and after a lot of thought and reading, I emailed Greg and inquired about one of his GHP frames. Greg responsed right away with his number, and I called the next day. I dial the number and who answers the phone - the man himself - the guy I used to read about as a kid. Greg answered any questions I had and I immediately knew I made the right choice by choosing his company for my next bike build. How many companies will give you that kind of rider-owned service these days?

The new frame arrived today, and to add to my excitement, I see that Greg personally signed the inside of the box. Okay, some of you non-BMX types may not get this, but that totally blew me away. I need to start ordering parts immediately, because I can’t wait to ride this bike. Thanks again Greg and GHP - I hope you guys are around for a long time.
