History: Got this frame from a guy in Aus:




Waza and Trev (Super Max Cromo) took the frame, repaired it, rechromed it:



They sent it to me for the easy part!!!




This build is dedicated to Waza and Trev, who have put in some sterling work, all for no charge at all. There should be more selfless guys like these around - top bananas!!!

if you think this build is good, wait until you see the job they have done with the next GHP. Truly remarkable repair job, I can tell you. Watch this space.

Looks great! Are those Sugino/Diamond Back cranks in the first pic?

Another gem build Neil. And wth Star bars! Super sweet.

Yeah - I only took the frame and forks though.

Yowza! Nice build!

from rags to riches!! That was a big diamond in the rough!! Great work Neil!! Give some us the same hookup on the chroming!!

Looks awesome but I think it deserves a straight seatpost, especially with a long frame.

It has a straight seatpost, mate.

look like harry Leary Turbo cranks. NICE JOB

Cheers for all the kind comments, guys.

Hey sub - My work computer only allows me to see the first and frame picture, Reilley called me and told me there a pic of it with a straight post. HAHA! Sorry, about that!

lol - no dramas, mate.

Very sharp Neil! Greg will be proud!

Cheers Joe.

Nice one Neil, another GHP added to the 'family'.

I raced a GHP Pro Long in 1986/87. It was THE best BMX bike I ever rode. It handled better than anything else I had ridden.

Yours is very similiar to the one I owned. I am still trying to track it down.

Very nice.

Awsome GHP! I'm kinda trying to track down a buddies old Pro II. I used to have some of those Odi sig. grips....but a pet ate them..LOL. I'm gonna kill that lil....

Hey subwax - I got home and was able to look at the finished pic! That thing is sweet! I was happy with the first pic, just without the laid back post.... Great job on it!

Nice build Neil...looking forward to seeing the next one!

Very nice Neil !! You did a great job on that !! Gotta love those GHP's!! Do you plan on riding that, or just looking at it ? They ride soooo nice .

Sweet GHP! I'm usually not into colored tires, but that is a very will balanced build

Yes....cools awesome Neil. Very well done! I like the tires as well.

Cheers guys.

I have got a new GHP on the way, so will ride that - these frames wont be punished at all.

Nice. How many badazz GHP do you have now? You realy pay attention to the details.

Got 2 built up Longs, another one waiting to be done - a Pro II, 2 Pro I's and a mini.

Short answer - never enough!!!

She looks S##T hot..... nice build
