Title: Anyone know of any MX sets that have two short shifts and 5.5U spacebar?
Post by: Blaise170 on Wed, 25 March 2020, 11:48:53

I recently converted my Matias Laptop Pro to MX-compatible sliders, but I didn't realize the spacebar was only 5.5U. Both shifts are the same size too which further complicates it. I'd really rather not convert the switches back to Alps mount but I will if there's not much available for it. Image for reference.

Choc mini keyset contains 5.5U spacebar and XDA spacebar set on aliexpress has one as well. Other then that i don't really know who also sells 5.5U spacebars.

Nice, didn't realize 5.5U was that rare since I have a Choc Mini too. I'll probably buy a couple sets of those then and just make do.
