There are two Hypers. The first Hyper had Greg Grubbs riding for them.
They had Red, White and Black uniforms. The rider in one of the adds
(Billy Farrell I think) dad started it. The second Hyper started around
1990 by Clay Goldsmid and Erick Weinstetter. The first prototype was
featured in BMX Plus! with both owners standing with their pride and
joy. Hyper started out making a small batch of two piece frames, the
HPR-20. Then the long lasting Metro. Then the Boxster. Erick left the
company in 1994. Hyper riders from the early years included (besides
Clay and Erick) Billy Harrison (he rode for Privateer/Peddlepower also,
he was a U local and Pro), Rob Dolecki and Ron Lesnak, two fast AMs out
of New Jersey. Then Eric Carter and Brian Foster. In 1993 Eric Carter
won the NBL National #1 Pro plate, riding a stock Metro frame.
