Hey guys, are there any commercial TKL or 60% boards that have 35g Topre switches? I was thinking Leopold or the HHKB might have some, thanks for the input.AFAIK HHKB and Leopold only come in 45g. I think 35g is only available with the ergo weighted Realforce boards.
XD ahaha thanks guys. I'm thinking of trying 35g cause I heard it feels less tactile. I did not mention that topre clones count also. So if theirs any noppo or royal kludge boards with 35g, that would be awesome.
I had another question about Topre in general. Right now I have the novatouch TKL. Does it feel different from 45g HHKB, leopold, or real force switches?
icc makes sense thank you. I was also wondering what do dental band mods exactly do to a topre. I heard Royal Kludge topre clones come pre moded.
The kludge is pre modded? I never heard this before?icc makes sense thank you. I was also wondering what do dental band mods exactly do to a topre. I heard Royal Kludge topre clones come pre moded.

So, how is it?? Give us the deets! :p
I like it! It is a little hard to tell right now how light it actually is because my hands are freezing (damn canada). I noticed that I was actuating some of the keys just by resting my fingers on the keyboard initially, but I think I have already gotten used to that (about 10 min on the board so far). It is pretty much exactly what I was looking for regarding weight. I like really light switches, so these are pretty interesting so far. Looking forward to putting some real time on these. The only negative thing I have found so far with this board is that the spacebar feels very 'gougy'. I think the way I rest my hands does not agree with this spacebar. I end up putting my thumb right on the edge of the spacebar. I may actually try a flipped spacebar (uggg, really?), but we will see. Maybe I will just get used to it or I will find a different position for my thumb.
All in all, I am happy. The seller even included an extra spacebar spring so I can put my Stainless Steel BBv2 on this board and not have to worry about it actuating the switch. :)
Edit: about to do a bit of gaming, so the true test is happening... :)
My 30g uniform board is not stock. It had domes replaced from a couple 30g variable weight boards.
I am not sure a tkl ANSI board exists in 30g uniform. They do in 104 ANSI and in tkl jis and/or hipro, but you may have to do dome replacements to get a 30g uniform ANSI tkl.
You found me the one board that existed with exactly my requirements. Thanks... :)My 30g uniform board is not stock. It had domes replaced from a couple 30g variable weight boards.

Ooops! My bad then :-[
Doesn't that shorten the travel?The kludge is pre modded? I never heard this before?icc makes sense thank you. I was also wondering what do dental band mods exactly do to a topre. I heard Royal Kludge topre clones come pre moded.

Is this true?
It comes with o-rings AFAIK.

Where can your buy the Royal Kludge 87 TKL board :O?It goes on massdrop fairly regularly. I'd just look there every once in a while or request it be brought back https://www.massdrop.com/buy/royal-kludge-rc930-87
