Båge - AEK Curved 60

The Båge AEK Curved O-ring mount 60 has been cancelled due to vendor withdrawal and high costs. Inspired by AEK60, GSKT-00, and Bakeneko designs, it featured a custom ALPS PCB and a single-piece aluminum case. Future redesigns are possible despite the project's indefinite hold.
