[IC] GMK Vélo | Indefinitely delayed

[Oggi]

Hi everyone, I have decided to indefinitely delay GMK Vélo. The reason for this is that this set is not really something I want to pursue at this time, and just does not fall in line with what I want do to currently. I have some other projects I am way more excited about than this, and will be sharing those very soon! I might come back to this set on a later date, so for everyone who was genuinely interested in this set, please don't lose hope! I appreciate every single one who has filled out the IC forms, left a positive comment and overall just enjoyed the set, I really do!

[whirlwind]

Ne B avail

[kt1928]

I normally don't buy gradient keycap sets but I think this is it, boys.

[Zanhana]

gorgeous but please consider running in PBT

[zekth]

Last novelty would not be doable because GMK only does doubleshot

[konstantin]

Lovely color combo!

Last novelty would not be doable because GMK only does doubleshot

I'm assuming the last one is intended to be done in UV-printing (which GMK does do; see GMK Yugo's novelty bars and GMK Polybius).

It's not mentionned anywhere that's why i'm saying this. Also i kinda doubt of the doability of the handlebar novelty, some wires might be too thin. Might have to confirm with GMK

[iinko_mk]

LOVE THIS SET. Cycling is my life

[donny_pete]

Not usually a fan of gradient but I am a fan of this. Consider us PBT folks pls lol

[sup3r170va]

Nice idea. A kit with all the coloured keys in white would be a nice addition. Gives the flexibility to convert the set into a BoW, which should increase its flexibility.

[lavaflow]

I'm in for any set that doesn't follow the traditional color profiles!

[stein3]

Nice idea. A kit with all the coloured keys in white would be a nice addition. Gives the flexibility to convert the set into a BoW, which should increase its flexibility.

At that point, I would argue for a gradient kit to be used with a WoB set.

[spikedsynapse]

I love this. The orange and white are very unique. On any keyboard, this would scream custom.

[Halcyrin]

Actually very interested in this. A BoW set with a bit of yellow/orange hue as accent? I'm down, finally a set that'd match my setup at home perfectly. Consider 40s?

[mustardgreens]

Looks cool, reminds me of my own keyboard

[Hedgey]

This set is low-key really awesome and I love the inspiration!

Any consideration for a 40's kit? 

[Zanhana]

yes in addition to PBT I forgot to mention please consider a 40s kit

[treeleaf64]

Very plain.

[paperassgasket]

In before "GMK Autozone"

I don't think that gradient quite works being crammed all the way over to the left. You don't even have a yellow key on every row.
Maybe stick it in the middle? It probably wouldn't work on Alice layouts then but gradients rarely do. Or move it over a couple of columns at least.

Also 40's please.

Totally off-topic, but I love your name and profile pic lmao.

[Havattack]

Looks like an old blank VHS tape cover.

[Dotnick]

very awesome set, please add some renders of this set on different colored boards!

[kight]

Great seeing this set in IC, I love the inspiration and the colors!

[macclack]

And all this time I thought I wasn't into gradient keysets.

[HungHingDaiLo]

Please be WS2 color for the white keycaps!

change my mind WS2 sucks

[guill3m]

Good, now gib to me. Lovely set.

[adxlk]

Hello, do you want to collab on deskmats?

Hi everyone, first update for this IC! Changes to the set:

 - Added rudimentary 40% support to Basekit -
 - Redid the novelties (removed the skeets) -
 - added B to spacebars -
 - Slightly updated IC form, go fill it in if you haven't!
 - added Iron180 renders -
 - confirmed 2 vendors! -

[paperassgasket]

is... is that a 1.75u backspace in base kit? 
Just toss in a 1.25u tab and I would be very happy.

Those gradient novelties are so dope, but for the love everything cool and aesthetic in the world, PLEASE make a space bar with that same gradient design on the left side of the cap.

1.25U tab is included! Next to the R3 1.5U control

[Bamboo238]

Interesting idea, but I find the angle of the gradient to be a little too acute and placed too far leftwards to be aesthetically appealing. To me the remaining white space on the left side seems a little too cramped. My opinion though, good luck with the IC.

gradient design on left side of space bar 

[MMKB]

  Interested. Here’s a matching All-City that copied the Peugeot color way

[Havattack]

The Kanye/Kanye looking avatar pic makes me like this keyset a little less.

[AllieBlairThomas]

Love to see the work put in, this set looks dope.

[voodoo6k]

Awesome. Really like this one.

[Owl]

Like this one a lot. Not the set for me personally but it's got such a cool theme and would look clean and captivating on a lot of boards out there. Very nice job!

[evidentLEE]

dis niceeeee

[Oggi]

Hi everyone! Small update incoming!

 - Added official colours -
 - First deskmat design revealed, more on the way! -
 - Added renders for the RAMA M60-A, Iron165 -

Collabs and other vendors are in the works, so stay tuned!

[beigeandbrown]

Idk why, but I feel like a real deep navy on the legends would add a cool flare to the set.

[Ram]

[Oggi]

I've added different coloured board renders!

very awesome set, please add some renders of this set on different colored boards!

[Oggi]

It does!

Looks like an old blank VHS tape cover.

[Cactuscooler]

Love the updated Novelties! ---More Stripes was something I suggested on the IC form <3 ---- Love the new desk mat. *Chef's kiss

[pixls]

i have worked on so many of these peugeots and hated every single one of them. Set looks nice tho.

[Lenders]

[Copypasta from what I wrote in the form:]
I don't think this set needs accents. I'd do things to have the striped novelties in the base kit though, even just a single one windows or enter key. Love the set.
It'd be nice to have an option to have the really cool striped novelties separate from the other "bycicle" themed ones, speaking as one who really does not care for bikes but absolutely loves the color scheme.
Oh, and I wish someday 6u spacebars will eventually make it to basekit but I know I'm in the minority (sigh).

[azzipa]

@oggi - Nice set! I've spent more than my share of time in and around bike shops, and I appreciate your nod to the Badger's 1985 win (most recent French champion!) and the Peugeot-specific Mangalloy steel (HLE). The 'skeet' key is genuine awesomeness!

[Space_Case88]

Yes, I do want this.

[PHYLO]

I want this, but does my wallet want this...?

[luke2fr]

As a cyclist, I say HELL YES !
But as a french guy, looking at a french named keycap set : ISO-FR kit is a must !

[Litomymu]

Cinelli > Peugeot   
Great set though 

[azzipa]

Agreed. Or Colnago, Pinarello, De Rosa, Cinelli, Bianchi... (before they stopped almost all production in Italia).

Cinelli > Peugeot   
Great set though

[cityllama]

The first thing I bought after I got my first job out of school was an old Peugeot bike. While the bike is no more and mine had some slightly different colours, seeing this still got me a little teary eyed. Insta-buy for sure

[Havattack]

I want a desk mat just like this image, minus the "GMK" part. But i can just have one made if you guys don't feel it. (A bigger HD pic would help...)

Something like this might be in the works... Stay tuned!

[Prestley]

Looks great so far

[mdoersam]

This is great! Any chance for a NorDE-Kit?

[DIFFER]

Looks great!

[Skok]

really digging  this

[Havattack]

IC form is not working for me. It's like letting me edit the questions and stuff...

Thanks for the heads up, should be fixed now

[candravamsa]

Second time around I actually really like this.

Velo striped space bar would be awesome!

[Oggi]

Some updates; confirmed all vendors, added F1-8X renders, received deskmat proto's, expect pictures of those in a couple of days

[Kokaloo]

40's in base very exciting, good stuff

[azzipa]

Just saw the new novelties. Now you're rubbing it in Lemond's face with the +1'42". Hinault may be an icon, hell anyone with 1 win (saying nothing about 5!) is superhuman, but in 1986 he proved he's also an ungrateful liar. GLWIC, I'm out.

The Frenchman had already announced the 1986 Tour would be his last, but had publicly promised to ride for LeMond, whose main rival appeared to be Laurent Fignon. Hinault’s sincerity was called into question, however, after he repeatedly attacked in the mountains and took over the race lead in the Pyrenees on stage 12.

[Oggi]

Deskmat samples came in, as mentioned in the post, I'm not happy with the colors of the striped mat, those will be adjusted.
Also removed most of the renders as I was not happy with those.
Please fill out the IC form!

[MayberryMech]

I used to own this bike. Love it

[BoofyMoon]

Definitely going to get one of the striped deskmats

[Kaidesk_Lee]

Huge fan of the retro vibes

[WaynaPawiasek]

This one needs really needs EUR-ISO Support

[Oggi]

Bump for update

[iinko_mk]

:pepehands:

[Buburoo]

Isn't you're group buy meant to be in 3 months? don't understand the reason for dropping this so close to GB Date just to take on another project?
That being said, your decision at the end of the day and wish you all the best. We commit another one to the Keycap Graveyard :peeponotpog:

[Bub]

sad to see this, but i understand and respect your decision to do so, oggi!

[Havattack]

Nooooooooooooo! Bummer, it had such a cool, retro vibe. Was going to make me feel better fro missing out on 1976 SA, sigh.

[imsorryyyyyyyy]

beautiful! We wish this keycap a success. I will buy 3 sets.

Hi there, I live in the USA and have looked for this group buy for sale in the USA but can't seem to find it. Can anyone please assist me and point me in the right direction with a link to where I can buy this in the USA? Thanks so much. Also, I am SUPER new to this community and new to the whole kb thing. Thanks so much in advance.

Sadly the designer announced a couple months back that this project is being indefinitely delayed (see title).
