When visiting Duncan Quinn’s boutique in Miami during Art Basel I fell into the backdrop watching the way people reacted to the Brass Cafe which DQ was kind enough to allow us to display during his “Bond Themed” event. One younger gentlemen took an extra close look more than once and finally ended up chatting with me about the bike. We talked about the design process behind a Cafe Racer and the reason Herm and I chose vintage Honda’s amongst several other things that pertain to the world being viewed through a set of dark Raybans at Dime City.
As a follow-up to that chance meeting Juan Chaparro, the co-founder of Democrathings.com was nice enough to follow-up with us and furnish the opportunity to partake in a web interview where he discusses these questions along with several others on his interesting video based Podcast website/BLOG, Democrathings. He’s an interesting young man who has the desire to explore creative ideas and has a love for Cafe bikes, so the match was perfect. The interview is about 30 mins long so please only watch it when you have time to sit down and watch it the entire way through. Juan’s dedication to the collaboration and creative collective deserves such an amount of respect.
