Before the Ripper it was the JU-6 the JU for Jeff Utterback. The mini Ripper was the BD-III and DB-IV. BD for Breithaupt Design and DB for Derek Brown

A little digging and I've found it (a quote from Brian Hays on VBMX)

'The GH Flyer, BD III, DB IV, and the (mini) Ripper were all the same frame but the Ripper was the only one with a serial number (starting with MR), and yes those frames were much smaller than the JU and PK'.
