I have no doubts it performs as it is advertised but at £2400, its way over my budget!

In 2017 a Formula 1 wheel costs $50,000 - $100,000. So at £3000 I'd say it's a bargain! Now all I have to do convince the wife it is. Wish me luck.

Absolute wheel porn. Thank Chris for showing us the amazing piece of engineering marvel.

This thing belongs in a sim racing art museum. Wow, I'd love to own one of these.

What a wheel! Looks amazing, would love to own such a great piece of gear for sim-racing!

Here I am with my G27 hoping to upgrade to Fanatec one day :/

Quality of your videos are just amazing. You should have way more subs

If you can afford it,get it lol. Looks amazing. If you intend to use it a lot. Really not a big deal. Not the same but wifey went ape when I spend £500 on an authentic Nhl jersey,not the cheap ones,import taxes too. 3 years later,she admitted defeat. Wear it nearly every day and love it still. You really only need a couple of wheels. Go big,if you can. Way out of my budget but maybe one day. I've just got enough for a sim2 pro and some spirit pedals.

There is no way this underrated channel manages to make quality videos on par with MKBHD. Respect.

It's literally modelled after the Mercedes F1 steering wheel, absolutely fantastic!

Amazing piece of kit, obviously. Totally out of my reach and more expensive than my whole set up. LOL, thanks for the review, Chris. It's like watching Top Gear when they drive hyper cars. :)

Thinking more and more of buying this. Thanks Chris for the video, very few did have their hands on this.

I, and a few other guys I race with, have had the conversation on the PSE wheels, and do tend to agree that having a "funky" switch on a Sim wheel is pretty important in a Sim compared to an IRL car. Sufficiently so that if someone had the money to burn on this, they may look at an Ascher or Cube instead. Not to say it's necessary by any stretch, but definitely is SO handy to have available.

£2,650 when you add the dual clutch paddles - is it worth £1,360 more than the Formula CSX wheel?

3 months of social security for me. More $ than my entire set up. Good review Chris, points on price well made. Beautiful isn't it?

Such a well produced video, thank you Chris. Very entertaining and informative - too.

I had the pleasure of trying out this wheel late last year and it certainly lived up to my expectations. It's solid as anything and the injection-moulded grips feel sublime, along with the shift paddles. One thing I found myself doing though was accidentally activating the top rotary if I moved my thumb to try and get some extra purchase or open my grip up a bit. I guess it's a bad habit of mine, and obviously modern F1 wheels are not designed for your grip to move in the slightest. I may one day look at buying this wheel, although the price is a bit hard to justify. The Lm-pro wheel that Max Verstappen uses is just as well made but half the price (after AU import duties) thanks to the less complicated layout and lack of a display; it makes more sense if you're in VR as well. Something like that might be what I ultimately end up going with when I go direct drive in a few years.

Wow what a high quality review, thanks for that!

2400 is only a lot of money if you aint got it. If you amortize the cost over how many years you will use it for plus its resale value, im sure its more than worth it

Very well done reviews Chris! Pleasure to watch.

Chris your videos are top quality! The aesthetic is simply superb, visually you are the best sim youtuber hands down. Keep the excellent work! 🙂

the B roll in this video looked really damn nice

Would love to see you try the cube controls CSX 2. Crazy wheel though!

Clarkson used this music for an Aston Martin take. I always loved this piece, now to watch video.

Just look up what a Santa Cruz V10 in it’s best spec will run you. You could get a pretty good car for those shekels. My point is, some people wants to ride bikes as a hobby, some people wanna sim-race. Some people won’t settle with nothing but the best, and if you are a dentist or whatever, you can afford it. Good for you!

There is absolutely no way in hell I would ever need this wheel....but I still want one!

I have the base level racing gear. I just need a wheel, my old G27 wheel broke. I was just about to start upgrading my sim to a high end one, but a hiccup in my life has put that on hold. I am a hobbyist but I like high-end parts just because I do, I enjoy custom made wheels like this, and as cool as F1 games are getting I want a dedicated F1 wheel. So I will add this to my wish list for later.

I enjoyed this so much I bought one, Thanks for the review

Hi Chris, at 3:17 you explain the possibilty to switch between 3 display modes (F1, LMP and GT3); i just recieved my GPX but i can’t find any information/software to do this ! Thx for your attention and, keep up the good work ;)

The grey part of the wheel - seen either side of the carbon centre plate - is a laser sintered part made from carbon reinforced PA12. It is clear from the appearance of the part shown in this video that the geometry is not optimal for the process & that the process has not been well controlled.

IMO,. a 2400 wheel for 20k rig are quite reasonable..

im sorry i didnt see the title i just clicked, your videos are really good, cheers Chris!

A Peace Of Art. Speechless.

Excellent video as always, improving day by day

What would stop a wheel like this being used in an actual vehicle, with a more sturdy connector of course, after doing a bit of research into wheels like the AIM Formula wheel I can’t see a reason why this couldn’t be used for actual racing, maybe some vibration problems perhaps?

The rim looks fantastic! What is expensive or not - easily can be judget by checking what similar we have on the market on better price!:)

looks good + reliable + convenient no wonder it's that expensive

I’d pay that price if my life was streaming auto racing.

This is the type of high-quality product I'd personally buy even at a higher price. Its that good. However, like many promising products, it fails short with those cheap stickers around the buttons. Just cheap and horrible. Even if they decided not to laser-etch the commands on the wheel for customization's sake (though that could work through a bespoke program and a symbolic fee), at least recessing the areas beneath the stickers would have helped a lot to maintain the premium theme as well as protect the stickers from peeling off. The wheels is brand new yet some stickers show signs of coming off already. Such a let down for what could be described as the sexiest wheel on sale today. Your presentation, however, is just as magnificent as all the other videos you create. Thank you Chris.

So much compromise to cut down on cost though. The cable is fixed with a cheap cable gland. The button shrouds are 3d printed and not very well you can see the layer lines. The button labels are just stickers. The cables from the shifters on the back are out in the open. I could go on... And for that price its absurd.

Yeah I need that wheel for the Mazda787 on Spa!...

with VR becoming more prevalent, these costly LCD screens will become irrelevant on wheels. Wonder how much that would reduce the price

there is a dude on the iRacing forums builds them way better than this and theyre cheaper but about £1200, completely carbon fibre he did a replica of vettels and kimi's and absolutely nailed them

The price is spare change for guys like max verstappen. But damn it is a good looking wheel.

I love this wheel so much that I have to stop my self from buying it

This is a real professional sim wheel period. These are the wheels on million dollar professional setups

Again awesome video, short and informative. £2400 and then not able to cover the shifter wires ? really ?

Beautiful! and Utterly unaffordable! :( Bit of a non sequitur but - I'd love to hear of the difference between the two F1 rims for the Thrustmaster T300 / T500 wheels 🤞 (no one's covered it yet AFAICT)

Answering the OP question. Hardware wise, Yes. Software, no. It’s weird that such a top wheel at such a price has very little flexibility on the Dash and uses Fanaleds to program the LEDs. At that price point one would expect a dedicated software to come along that gives high flexibility when programming the Dash and LEDs

Sure is a beauty! And a topnotch presentation!! :) I would rather spend that monay on another shifter though.. :D

Its a direct copy of the mercedes F1 steering wheel. Besides from the rotary buttons at the buttom

The best add-on wheel is thrustmaster Ferrari 250 GTO

Hello Chris, what about the LCD size? Is it 4.3" or 3.5" inc?

Am I the only one to whome the music at the beginning seems familiar? Wasn't it used in some Top Gear/Grand Tour episode?

Does it work on fanatec clubsport base v2

What do you think about Thrustmasters upcoming F1 Wheel?

Thanks for the video, it's very interesting! It seems this product has a huge scope problem. As you said, PSE is coming from pro market and tries to target the general public. But even in the pro market, "uncompromising" is a synonym of over-budget, badly targeted product, and that will be of course even more obvious in the general sim market (which is not very large). Most people will look at this as an awesome product but the price will simply not meet their utility, and we know what that means, it will not sell much. For example, using top materials ("aero-space grade aluminium", which rather sounds like meaningless marketing term, and single-pieced body) for parts that would already have been perfect with ordinary materials and a common assembly process is unnecessary. Likewise, what is the use of such a high-cost display when it is duplicated on the screen... and more readable on screen actually, since the users don't have to change their vision's field depth - for the few who aren't simply in VR in the first place. Finally, what makes a racing wheel great is the motor base, the wheel is only a small fraction of the perceived quality. So overall, they have spent a lot of money in irrelevant features.

really good review. any thoughts on the GT1 steering wheel by precision sim

It looks the real deal

Very NICE, thank YOU!

It’s very cool but tbh you can buy pretty much the same wheel but it will be from the Ferrari SF1000. It has the the screen and a lot of buttons that are on the actual Ferrari SF1000. And it just costs 350€ or something. Yeah it’s just a wheel add-on but if you compare to this one that costs more than 2000$ then I’ll pick the Ferrari one.

This wheel was designed with the RSS 2019 Formula Hybrid, so how does it work with that car and AC?

Any idea who makes encoders like this. They are so cool looking.

I really like the fact that it is NOT alcantara, all my alcantara wheel end up slippery becuase the alcantara gets crushed into a solid flat piece of cloth. yes i can clean it and it comes back a bit but always gets ruined quick, and yes i use gloves.

Time to manufacture my own )))

Hello, good video, great wheel. Simple question for you Chris, how do you change the dash display on the wheel? I see you use the Page+ and Page- buttons but those seem inoperable on my received model. Is there something I'm missing or did I somehow receive a defective wheel? Thanks in advance.

It is modeled identically to the Merc AMG W11's wheel

I just hope you learn to take the corners better when the next wheel comes around.

And here I am thinking the new fanatec direct drive pro gt was expensive....

doesn't matter how good it looks, feels, or performs if nobody but the elite of the world can use it.

great vid.. take a breath every now and then though :)

Question for the sim racers here. Which game is he using. Is it the official F1 game or something else more high end? I have the 2019 version which I love but always looking for the best experience.

Well after seeing it's 2400 pounds have decided to continue with my Logitech dfgt

Cool wheel!! But.. The cable is ridiculous, no quick release?? Price is Bananas..

They would make even more money if they make them compatible for consoles.

What a superb bit of kit! Worth every penny in my opinion even though I am about 239,500 pennies short 😂

Hi Chris, you mention that the buttons and the rotary switches are swiss made. What is the name of the company that made the buttons and the rotary switches ?

I'm fine with my g29.... (It's a g920 tho I just wanted to make it rhyme)

Sorry for the noob question. What kind of wheel base this wheel accept?

Thanks!

Yeah Chris, I admit it is good - but I think MY wheel is the best - it is called the Logitech Driving Force GT, and it is a WINNER!!! ;P P.S. But I did have to save up for ages - as it cost me a whopping $60....

if isn't good for that prize, is a madness...

That's the Rolex of sim wheel's lol

It's beautiful!

To sleep, aye, perchance to dream... of a day when I could justify setting up a sim racing rig that costs, all-in (frame, PC, screens, seat, hub, wheel, pedals, shifter), as much as my wife's car did.

GT3 and LMP wheels looks awesome but can I put it on Fanatec wheel base?

Value proposition for non pros is extremely low. Most of us wont use the wheel to its potencial or for what it was made. For that price I can buy a fanatec dd wheel with the bmw rim and their formula v2 rim and a set of csl pedals with loadcell. Te difference in quality will not be that noticeable for most of us and you will be just as well served. Sure that one might "feel" nicer in your hands but it is not worth 10x the price of a fanatec rim (I stree again that this is for us bot for professionals. For pros it is another argument). I struggle to think of a situation where I have $2400 to spend and ai decide to spend it on a single rim. I could do a full day track day with an lmp2 car for that ammount of money and that will be a lot better.

The price is not cool wkwkwkw. But i hope someday i bought this wheel in my room

Great video Chris. What a wheel!!!

It has a cable sticking out at the back, there are better options.... that's a nobrainer!

this is a top end wheel- the thing is- if u buy this- u can easily resell it for 90%

3:45 only if the game steering wheel screen was on the actual steering wheel

Would be compatible with DD1 podium fanatec ?

Hi Chris nice video. But this is not the best wheel yes it has some very solid advantages on the market than others. The way it’s structured as the Mercs wheel. But look carefully on the screen it’s the most ugly one I’ve seen in a while compare to the rixing wheel which I own since 2016. And it’s with unmarked buttons but the screen and LED lights are more and exactly like the F1 McLaren wheel so the price is not properly justified for this wheel. Pleas have a look and if you can review the rixing wheel

That wheel is more attractive than my wife!

From this video it's safe to assume this wheel has plenty buttons you can't use in current titles. I wonder why bother

bruh that wheel costs more than my entire pc setup

I dont need it. But i sure as hell want one. I mean just saying it would be a really nice toy

Lmao even after getting a direct drive wheel, load cell pedals and a proper rig this thing is still more expensive than my entire set up (without my PC)

Does one quick release work with every wheel base?
