Im in the US and thinking of ordering the BRD F1 wheel/pedals. Has anyone had experince with ordering from BRD from the US? Good/bad? Also, anyone (anywhere)...how does the BRD compare to TSW? Sent via Deja.com http://www.deja.com/
Steering very precise...poor pedals IMO. Not the quality though, they are solidly made I found them terribly uncomfortable and impossible to race with on a daily basis. Honesty is the best policy ;o) DC <[email hidden]> wrote in message news:93632f$pvm$[email hidden]...

In all fairness though I was using the pedals on the floor. I think they are more tailored for use in one of their cockpits. Then they may be easier to use. DC <[email hidden]> wrote in message news:93632f$pvm$[email hidden]...

You can alter the throw on the pedals to make them alot more comfortable. I reckon they are the best pedals available for the price. pez David Ciemny <[email hidden]> wrote in message news:cHK56.20803$[email hidden]... > In all fairness though I was using the pedals on the floor.

Honesty is the best policy ;o) The pedals in the full size set-up (not the compact version, as they are cheaper plastic pedals) are fantastic. An all steel construction, the pedal rake angle can be adjusted, the base is large enough to rest the heel of your foot on, they are heavy enough that they do not move around, You can have one pedal dominant over the other, what more do you need? I've had a full size F1 Sim wheel (the older wheel designed by Ballracing) for about two and a half years now, and it is tsill as good as new after very heavy use (eg: daily doses of GPL, GP3, GP3, TOCA 3, ICR2, Rally Masters, CMR2, RC2000, etc). I've also had a compact version for about a year, but it is only my *spare* wheel so doesn't get used as often, but it too, is as good as new. The only wheels of similar quality IMHO are the TSW and ECCI wheels... Get out there and buy one man. > DC > <[email hidden]> wrote in message > > news:93632f$pvm$[email hidden]... > > Im in the US and thinking of ordering the BRD F1 wheel/pedals.

I just attached a 2x4 piece of wood at the end of the pedalbase to make room for my feets that way i can keep my feets at a normal angle and still get a good long throw in the pedals LGE "Alexpez" <[email hidden]> skrev i meddelandet news:93dfj1$fp3$[email hidden]...
