We are proud to announce our first collab, FR87, with
ELEMENTO, a Californian design studio of a group of talented
enthusiasts.
zFrontier will be running the IC and the
future GB for FR87 by Elementos request.
FR87 is Elementos debut in the custom mechanical
keyboard community. FR87 will feature a half-plate and
Bluetooth design.
Jan 23, 2018
Concept
Elegant and modern, FR87 is designed to be the
centerpiece of your desk. Enabled by either
USB-C or Bluetooth connection, FR87 is
perfect for any typing scenarios. This beauty also utilizes
a half-plate design which is only
implemented in a few premium custom keyboards for a unique
typing experience. Two RGB LED ambient light strips are
placed on the sides of the keyboard which will not only
highlight the cutting edges of the bottom case but also work
as indication lights.

Design
FR87 features multiple cutting edges and beveled
designs to provide a modern and sleek aesthetic.
This
keyboard has a mild 6° incline.
The
case will be made from CNC machined aluminum with an
anodized finish.
Bluetooth
FR87 will support both USB-C and Bluetooth
connection. Wireless mode will be powered by
AA(AAA) batteries.
