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.
We went through two rounds of prototyping and took on feedback from the community before we were comfortable releasing something that can make #tactilegang proud. Shout outs to sugar_kb for being my guinea pig, Truly Chewyie Cables for the colour matching and clickpig for giving his tactile blessing.
Note: Despite being rated at 58g bottom out, we find that Aflion's 58g springs feel heavier and more like 62g or 63.5g. As a result, we are offering a 25% discount on our 55g Single Forever Longboi springs when bundled with the Ice Kachang switch in the event that you wanted to spring swap for a lighter experience. Discount automatically applied at checkout.
