--- Quote from: n2cus on December 31, 2009, 06:49 AM ---Greg had just come off and incredible season of TOTAL domination in the Pro ranks (1982) and was kicking some tail in 83' also. GT bikes was his sponsor, but due to some contract (or lack there of) disputes, as well as a need for some new motivation, Greg shocked the BMX world by showing up at the 83' NBL Grands in a GHP uniform and riding a GHP bike!
Prior to this event, Gregs Dad had been running a little company called Star Products - most famous for their "Star Bars" and GHP was kind of like taking Star Products to the next level. Having the hottest Pro, a killer team, and good coverage in the mags, GHP thrived for the first year and a half. But the industry as a whole was peaking out, and evolving into different directions.
THIS IS A QUOTE FROM THE GREG HILL SITE

Star Products F+F were made by Voris Dixon as well ;) .
The NBL Grands have always traditionally been in Aug/Sept each year which coincided with GHP being started in Aug 83 , I'm big into GHP myself and have been for a fair few years now after picking up a Sept 83 GHP Pro some years back off a mate from bitd ( it was his last race bike ) . When my Sept83 20" is done it will be the little bro to my Apr84 24" .
Nice work on the stem with the finish , blue the bolts and it'll look real good ;) .
