The only drawback is that its harder to change the steeringpot and to do homemade customisation otherwise same quality as TSW LGE "VFy" <[email hidden]> skrev i meddelandet news:[email hidden]...

TSW pedals are way better or should I say more comfortable to use. I also have a BRD. The pedals can be repositioned to various angles however I found them very uncomfortable. The steering is very good and precise in the BRD. I do not like the way the monitor sits on the base of the wheel. If you have a large monitor you are now right on top of it. Just MHO... Dave C.

I just took a 2x4piece of wood and screwed it on the "footend" of the pedals makes more room for the feets, for me the TSW pedals have a little bit better resistance, but the BRD has longer "throw" so it evens out which one is the best, both wheels are about equal i think the TSW will probably have a slightly longer life because its easier to repair, but quality is about the same for both, the pots on the BRD is far better than TSW standargrade pots however LGE "David Ciemny" <[email hidden]> skrev i meddelandet news:kWVC7.3289$[email hidden]... > TSW pedals are way better or should I say more comfortable to use.

Yes I think that is the problem . "Big feets" I would need an extension to get the full benefit of the pedals. Supposedly they have a high end ff wheel in the works too (?)
