This is really nice, and the follow-up comments are nice, too.

That was a pleasure to read! Grant describes himself as a one-trick pony. I'll disagree and say that he's also a strong writer. Esteban San Diego, Calif.

[RBW] Re: Dirt Rag Grant Profile
Yes very nice complement made by Paul Price... who would have thought centerpull brakes would be back on bikes (well some bikes)? I spec'ed the braze on Racers on my new Coho Randonneuse and down tube shifter bosses ( hint for GP). He also eloquently explains Grants' marketing genius, done with minimal advertising except word of mouth, a few minor ads and excellent sites such as this one and Jim's Cyclofiend site. I know there are plenty of others players in this revolution but Grant is a guiding force. ~Mike~ On Jun 15, 5:53 am, JoelMatthews wrote: > > Check out the comments.

Now if only GP and Paul would get together and offer a set Hilsen option with Paul Racer level braze ons. The Hilsen and Racer Ms are a match made in bike heaven. Thanks for the link, btw.
