1984 GHP Pro Long

THIS BIKE WILL BE BORN AGAIN

i grew up in Subic Bay which is a naval base in the Phillipine Islands making it extremely difficult to get quality American parts, most of what i got was department store junk and lower end brand name stuff. This was my first "pro level" bike and i picked it up basically the way it sits for $50. As i continued to ride and progress i kept changing my frame and components and kept everything i wasn't using in storage....which my mom eventually defaulted on, causing me to lose everything. This picture (which i still carry in my wallet) is what brought me to this site and started my interest in collecting old school bmx with the ultimate goal of re-creating this bike.

Looks and sounds like a great bike- You need to rebuild it, will be expensive, but not impossible nd well worth the money for the nostalgia.

Re: 1984 GHP Pro Long

Great story man.  No help here, sorry.  I recently picked up my first bike and I finally found the frame and fork for my first "good" bike.  Good luck on the search.-ben


I've got a wonderful future behind me.
