Why?
I was scouring the used marketplace looking to buy a bike for a restoration project when I stumbled upon a 1985 Peugeot PH 10LE.
It was mine within the week and I sought to evoke the same emotion I felt when I first laid eyes on it in a keycap set.

[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.

[Nicks Clicks]

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!

[guill3m]

Good, now gib to me. Lovely set.

[adxlk]

Hello, do you want to collab on deskmats?

 - 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.

This is the only compliment I have ever received.  Thank you my dude. I appreciate you.

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.
