 Check out the comments. The comment by Paul Price of Paul Components
 is nothing short of glowing and just plain cool.

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.  Good and interesting interview.

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.

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.

prototypical GP quote:

What are your interests aside from bicycles?
Evolution, astronomy, Bob Dylan, fishing, poetry, film photography,
behavior, hiking, pull-ups and dips, and most of all, my fantastic
family and dog. Not so much, my cat.

This is really nice, and the follow-up comments are nice, too. I
posted it to my Facebook page, along with a link to my own interview
