1983 Hyper
1983 Hyper
"Greg Grubbs" personal factory team
from eby ad:
What have here is Greg Grubbs' personal factory team Hyper frame and fork from 1983. Hyper was the brainchild of the late Billy Farrell from New York and was only in business for a short time. This is one of the first frames from the first production run. Greg only rode it a short time as it was too small and flexed too much for him with the twin tope tube and eliptical down-tube configuration. They built a longer, stiffer Hyper for Greg that he is keeping. The serial number is 683294 but neither Greg or I have any information as far as decoding it. a piece of BMX history and a personal frame from 2007 ABA Hall of Fame inductee Greg Grubbs' personal collection.

Respect yourself enough to walk away from anything that no longer serves you, grows you, or makes you happy.
Beware of false knowledge; it is more dangerous than ignorance.

Hey I'm golfing with Grubbs tomorrow! He'll probably spank us all like he usually does.

Re: 1983 Hyper
I remember billy from way back then. He and I used to ride out at James J. Braddock BMX Track out in New Jersey (ABA Sanctioned), and he was always thinking of new ways to to produce new frames, where he would premier them and what pros he would have ride for him. He was truly a gifted friend, and I still miss him much. The sport was a better place whith him in it.
