Click on the WHEEL USB BLUE WITH PEDALS item in the grid for a photo
I have seen this wheel in some other online stores . This is real
cheap and I was wondering if someone tried it here.
It's a "no brand" wheel. The decals are removed. This was apparently
made by a well known company.
Anyone can identify it ? opinions on its quality would be welcome

Its actually not a bad wheel at all, but the pedals are absolutely rubbish
unfortunately, no travel at all. The wheel has a *** surround and has a
nice spring tension.
Hope this helps
All the best,

This one might be a little different in mechanism, as it has USB connection.

FYI - the shifter is on the same circuit as two of the wheel buttons; i.e., the top two buttons do the same thing as moving the
shifter back and forth. So you have a shifter and two extra buttons, but not four.

The blue model is USB, unlike the EXL 500. I hooked it up and immediately
speeds were 5% faster. I have no idea why, I can only assume that the EXL
wasn't performing at maximum even with the pedal to the floor or it could've
been in the wiring, etc.
This model is still the best on the market in my opinion.
great deal at that price. You won't get split axis, but the
better CH or AL pedals later if you like.
