Back in November, Niels Heusinkveld unveiled his HE Sim Pedals, a stainless steel pedal set aimed at sim racing professionals.
Now, Niels has released a new video, showing him testing the new Ultimate version of the pedals
They’re alive! And awesome! This is a sock free zone. At 30kg / 66lbs, the clutch is heavier than most (so called) ‘pro’ sim pedals. I used roughly 60kg / 132lbs brake effort in this video, using the ‘soft’ rubbers. It can do up to 120kg / 264 lbs, which is the peak value you see in some real racing cars.
The weight loss compared to the previous pedals is amazing, they feel like a totally different set, much more responsive, greater travel adjustability and a much more ‘race-y’ look.
No audio as the rig and shifter are very noisy, which would make it seem like the pedals are noisy, which they aren’t.. More videos in the future, this is a very ‘first preview’ kind of thing!
Niels had only six sets to sell, the pedals were available for 799€ (throttle and break pedals) and 1149€ (throttle, break + clutch) respectively.
