Comments on Zuoce Bubble Gum switches
Bubble Gum pops so I guess that is why they called this the Bubble Gum. They are lovely and lively without being too intense. They are definitely not full travel linears though. They lean well to clack but really shine with the thocc in foamier or deeper boards. I'd imagine these would slap in a TKL, foam build or deeper 65-75% board. Not dissimilar to the Morandi – Thock Exchange.
