I agree 100% with you Geeza.
My (two) BRD wheel and pedal systems cost me a fair bit, (about 150
each then) but they are as good now as the day I bought them (about five
years ago).
All I've had to pay for is replacement springs (5) maybe once a year,
oh, and a new circuit board (8) for the wheel buttons.
Likewise, yeah, my BRD Race Frame Pro***pit cost a fair bit, but it
too is as good now as the day I bought it.
And as Don says, I could easily sell my BRD stuff as its all still in
pristine condition and recoup most of what I originally paid for them.
So who spends more money?
The guy who pays say 200 on quality "expensive" gear that will
easily last him six, seven, eight, maybe even ten years, or the guy who
buys his "cheaper" gear, say around 100 but it only lasts one
year, or maybe two years before he has to buy another "cheaper" system?
I know which I prefer.... 8-)

"The internals of the steering column are again a unique feature of this
system. The return to centre mechanism is based on our tried and tested
compression spring based dual ballraced cam system. This has proved to
be just about indestructible and will not wear out. It allows you to
experience a very progressive and linear feel through out the 270 of
steering rotation. It also means that the steering will always return
positively to centre. The precise action of the steering mechanism will
mean that you can be confident in your driving."
It works well, friends who have driven my set-up are always impressed at
how realistic it "feels".
