DJ
on HB
We
are proud to announce that Daniel Johnson will now be representing Hoffman
Bikes in Australia. Thanks to Cooper Brownlee for this interview and
photos...
Daniel Johnson
has been on fire this last year. It seems like he came out
of no where down in Australia when it was announced that he
was on the Division
Brand team. Since then he has definitely made his
presence in a handful of edits where he consistently killed
it. Apparently his work has definitely paid off since I’m
super stoked to announce that DJ is now repping HOFFMAN
BIKES! We figured it would be rad to make the
announcement by giving you a look at his dialed new setup.
Check it!
Hub Guards:
Division Hub guard, Primo Driver Side Guard
Brakes?
My Feet
Modifications:
Cut down the steerer tube on my forks, cut bars down about
an inch either side, flangless grips.
What’s
the newest part on your bike?
Frame, Wheel-set, Sprocket & headset
What’s
the oldest?
Probably my front tire, or my seat.
What do you
tend to burn through the most?
Grips, Chains & pedals. But regularly replacing those 3
things makes your bike feel dialled again, so not a bad
thing.
I know a
lot of people are pretty OCD about things like where their
bars are and everything. Do you have any presets you need
your bike at or it just feels all wrong?
I don’t think im overly fussed to much, once you ride any
bike for more then 10 minutes it starts to feel normal,
haha.
Does your
set up change much? Do you ever add or remove pegs at all?
Pegs never get removed from my bike! I recently moved my
bars a little forward (almost Chicago’d) just to try help
me out with nose manuals. It isn’t working, but I think it
helped my hop a little, so I’ll stick with it.
Have you
considered tossing the brakes back on again?
Being brakeless for almost 6 years, there is no chance of
brakes ever going near my bike.
What’s it
like having your own signature bars through Division? Is it
still pretty surreal?
It is such a privilege & yeah pretty surreal. Gets me so
stoked when I think about.
What’s
your favorite piece of your whole bike?
Hub guards, just because they make grinds feel so nice, but
I really like the look of the Division Formosa Forks. So
clean.
So you are
the newest addition to the Hoffman team. How did that all
come about? Do you have anything cooking with them yet as
far as trips or videos go at all?
Yeah! I’m stoked to be apart of the Hoffman team! Mike
Daly @ Kickass
BMX who distribute Hoffman over here emailed me asking
if I was keen, & hell yeah I was! Going to be hopefully
getting a welcome edit out in a few weeks.
Since we
did an interview
not too long ago I’ll save you from too many questions. Do
you have anything new going on with Divison or anything?
Anything cooking for 2012 yet?
As I have mentioned, I’ve change my Sig bars’ to the mid
range 8.5″, I wanted to see what they felt like, &
was into them so yeah. 2012 at the moment is just planned to
have some filming trips around Aus, & get that footage
out there. which gets me psyched!
You have
had a couple edits with clips of you drop lately. Can we
expect more soon?
Cooper and I are working on a few edits, footage is rolling
in nicely for it, pretty keen to see the end results thats
for sure.
Anything
else you have been real psyched on lately?
Just going out riding with the crew, always having the best
times, & everyones riding lately has just been so good.
filming for “The Package” series that we got going on at
Focalpoint. It is awesome. We all love it.
