Comments on Keebz N Cables Ice Kachang V2 switches | Comments on Keebz N Cables Mountain King switches |
The Ice Kachang is 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. Now about the switch… it's a long pole medium tactile with a rounded bump with minimal pre-travel. It comes with two options, hand lubed from factory for the cbf crowd like myself and unlubed for enthusiasts with trust issues – KeebzNCables. | Introducing the KeebzNCables x clickpig Mountain King, the first switch in our KeebzNCables community collaboration series! Based off Australia's own tactile gold clickpig's notorious BBT frankenswitch, the Mountain King is a long pole tactile sporting a sharp medium/heavy strength bump, encased in a JWICK nylon T1 housing. This particular combo results in a lively sounding switch with a punchy tactile bump and a satisfyingly crisp bottom out. The Mountain Kings are a great addition for those who enjoy experimenting and tinkering with their switches, as even minor changes will result in a noticeably different experience. Spring swapping to 62g two-stage spring will result in a snappy tactile with an almost feather-light linear section post bump. Alternatively, drop in a 65g long spring for a tactile bump that bumps back. Mountain Kings come with a small amount of factory oil to increase stock performance, however do not come pre-greased, so they're ready to lube without needing to scrape out any factory lube first. |
