Comments on Keebz N Cables x HMX Ice Cendol switches | Comments on Keebz N Cables Ice Kachang Linear switches |
The Ice Cendol is the latest switch in our Shaved Ice series inspired by a childhood favourite dessert thanks to all the Malaysians and Singaporean in Perth. It’s been a long way to get here, originally planned to be manufactured by Keygeek, we weren’t happy with the sound profile and the appearance of the transparent nylon top housing… so Mr Keebz enlisted Rassles our Kiwi Staff Member to help design the new Ice Cendol and we got working with the most hyped manu in 2024 HMX to create a unique material combination to create something that some have described as MX Black-ish without the scratch-ish – KeebzNCables. | The Ice Kachang tactile was the first switch in our Shaved Ice series and inspired by a childhood favourite dessert thanks to all the Malaysians and Singaporeans in Perth. For those who are familiar with the ice kachang/ais kacang, we hope the colourway is remiscent of some of the many elements you'd find in this amazing dessert. We decided to make a linear equivalent of the Ice Kachang Tactiles by getting rid of the bump, dodgy leaf of V2, adding some more travel but still long pole and going for a transparent PC stem. The combo also adds some brightness to Aflion's signature deep sound profile – KeebzNCables. |
