1984 GHP Long

This bike began after I purchased a white spray bombed frame only from the original owner.  After 6 plus months of gathering parts and a scramble to get it built before the deadline of the 2014 calendar contest build, here's what was created....

NOS Dia Compe Brake set (MX1000 brake, DC cable & Tech 3 lever)

NOS Suntour seat clamp

Rechromed GHP 90 degree seat post

Show mounted Cycle Pro Shotgun II seat

Rechromed 180MM Redline 401 single pinch cranks with double dimple spindle

Redline 42T bubble font gear

KMC chain

NOS Araya 7B rims

NOS Asahi chrome spokes

Phil Wood hubs

NOS Cycle Pro Greg Hill signature snake belly tires

Items of note:  The parts selected for this build were parts used by Greg Hill in the early to mid 80’s.  He ran Phil Hubs prior to SST’s (I would have loved to have a set for this build), Hutch pedals (he actually used a number of pedals during this time period), Araya 7B’s for years, Redline cranks with a 42T gear, Cycle Pro tires and seats, etc.  All parts were OG with the exception of a couple bolts and the two decals (handlebars and crank arms).
