# Dactyl Lightcycle
|

|
|
|
|
A handwired, split bodied, concave key-well, columnar keyboard.
|
|
The *Dactyl Lightcycle* is a variation of the [Dactyl](/keyboards/handwired/dactyl/) keyboard, its differences are:
|
|
1. Top (number) row removed
|
|
2. Five key thumb cluster; one less than the *Dactyl's* six
|
|
|
|
This modernised rendition of the *Dactyl Lightcycle* requires two Pro Micro controllers, rather than the *Dactyl's* original implementation of a micro controller and I/O expander.
|
|
|
|
* Keyboard Maintainer: [Matt Adereth](https://github.com/adereth/)
|
|
* Hardware Supported: 2x Pro Micro micro controller, or clone of
|
|
* Hardware Availability: Case files available on [GitHub](https://github.com/adereth/dactyl-keyboard), file names beginning "lightcycle" apply
