So I just saw the below weights for gateron, not sure what these mean but they can't be the bottoming out weights can they? Black Gaterons are kind of like MX blacks, just smoother. Does anyone know the bottom out weight for these to compare to zealios?
Blacks - 50g Linear
Blues - 55g Clicky
Browns - 45g Tactile
Clears - 35g Linear (are these really this light?)
Greens - 80g Clicky
Reds - 45g Linear
Yellows - 50g Linear (what do these compare to? Are these the same as the blacks?)
Thanks
Edit: The Yellow and the Clears are the only ones really not comparable to MX.

I take it you saw this on the Massdrop listing? I think they use actuation force. Yellows are similar to Blacks, yet to me they feel slightly different. I prefer Yellow.
Correct, those are the actuation forces, not bottom out resistance.. and yes, the Gateron Clears really are that light.
Gateron Yellow has the same actuation as Gateron Black, but a lighter bottom out resistance.
anyone got a link to the bottom out force for Gaterons, is there a link?
Slightly off-topic, but I would love to see a graph of bottom-out forces. I'm getting confused lately as all the forces I've learned were actuation, and, since I bottom-out, the latter weight is more important to me.
I find Vintage Blacks to be a bit heavy for long periods of typing, so I figured anything slightly lighter than that, although a bit heavier than purple 65g Zealios (which I find to be a bit light), would be perfect for me.
Plus, I'm still undecided whether I should order the new Gateron greens or stick with blues for an upcoming custom number pad.
