(Group Buy) Brutal V2 60% Keyboard Kit

Expected Shipping time: Q2 2024

The Brutal V2 Keyboard Family gains a new member - say hello to the Brutal V2 60%. Designed by ai03.
With unique finishes, carefully chosen colourways, and an even lower price made possible by group buys, the 60% variant brings a fresh take to a proven design.

Bold and Brutal

With its bold bezels, angular tapers, and weighty, blocky look, the Brutal V2 series expresses aspects of brutalist architecture within an elegant, compact keyboard case.
Carrying forth the original inspiration from the Brutalist V1 series, Brutal V2 takes things further with an exterior completely un-interrupted by visible screws.

Engineering Internals 

The single-sided gasket mount cushions the heavy impacts on the underside, and transmits the acoustics through the top of the plate to the rest of the case to be amplified to their fullest potential.
Internal cast-zinc weights control the vibrations to just the right amount, while also completing the brutalist theme inside and out with its unique raw finish.
The self-aligning plate mechanism means your build assembles to perfection each and every time, regardless of prior build experience or skill.
