Our History
Hyper Bicycles, Inc. was established in 1990 by former BMX Pro Clay Goldsmid. Initially the company produced high end BMX Racing frames and components. The company also established an ongoing commitment to supporting Riders and the sport through sponsorships of individuals and Teams. One of the first Riders to benefit from Hyper sponsorship was Eric Carter, who helped position Hyper as a leader in BMX by capturing a National Championship and being an excellent spokesperson and promoter of the brand. Eric moved on to a stellar career in Mountain Biking, while Hyper continued to develop BMX products and began exploring an expanded position in the marketplace.
In the intervening years Hyper has maintained its position as a leader in BMX, with a full line of products for racing and freestyle Riders. Hyper has also continued its commitment to the sport by sponsoring Riders, Teams, Events and Series. It became obvious that if Hyper was to grow and prosper new opportunities would need to be explored. Hyper has since become a major player in the Mass Market, and in Specialty Sporting Goods offering BMX, Mountain Bike and other products to a broad audience of consumers.
With a long history of active, successful participation in BMX, it was time to establish a similar position in the Mountain Bike community. The obvious best choice to manage our entry into the Mountain Biking was longtime friend and MTB legend Eric Carter. Eric is currently heading up our Product Development Program and is organizing our marketing and support efforts. Eric has already committed to a schedule of events, races and other promotional opportunities to provide visibility to our effort and create the foundation for Hyper Bicycles continued involvement in Mountain Biking. Hyper plans to support and promote Mountain Biking by producing top quality products for Racers and enthusiasts. The company is seeking industry partners that share our vision of support and commitment to producing high quality, high performance products.
