What others might label as luxury, they make achievable at entry-level!

When they embarked on the journey of creating direct drive wheelbases, their goal was clear. They aimed to craft the finest sim racing wheelbases on the market. Not only would these products excel in all areas, but they would also do so without emptying your wallet. Instead of just repackaging a standard industrial servo motor, they decided to take a different approach. Despite the task's daunting nature, they chose to start from scratch, much like they had with their acclaimed pedals and steering wheels.

Firstly, they invested in top-tier IP vendors. Next, they formed a partnership with Mige, a well-known motor supplier in the sim racing industry. Over the years, they put significant effort into the comprehensive development of electronics, software, firmware, and mechanics. Alongside design, testing, and validation, the team worked tirelessly. Now, they are ready to unveil the Invicta™ 27Nm, 18Nm Forte®, and 12Nm upgradeable La Prima™ wheelbases.

At Asetek SimSports®, they are committed to maintaining the quality, durability, and engineering brilliance that their other products are known for. Importantly, they ensure the same user experience across all product tiers. Whether you opt for the entry-level La Prima™ series or the top-tier Invicta™ products, the experience is identical. Each wheelbase, which has a torque range from 12-27Nm, comes equipped with a high-end 22-bit encoder, slipring, and electronics. Consequently, cogging and lagging have become a thing of the past. All vital components are, of course, made of aluminum and steel.

Every Asetek SimSports® wheelbase delivers smooth, responsive, and precise feedback, allowing drivers to feel even the tiniest road irregularities. For example, the resolution of their wheelbases is an impressive 0,000085 degrees, equating to around 4,000,000 steps in a single wheel revolution! In essence, an Asetek SimSports® wheelbase does not force you to choose between a high-quality driver experience and affordability. With their products, you can have both!

Since they designed each wheelbase from scratch, they were able to develop a compact and flexible form. As a result, they can cater to any rig and need. In its simplest form, the base comes with T-nuts pre-installed in bottom grooves, allowing for easy adjustments in your rig. Additionally, they offer a range of mounting options for any rig, including a table clamp solution, bottom mount, side mount, and their unique front mounts.

Quick relase feature

All wheelbases from Asetek SimSports® are equipped with their custom quick release, which operates as smoothly as shifting gears. To detach the wheel from the base, one simply needs to press a paddle and the wheel is instantly in their hands! Needless to mention, Asetek does not depend on wireless signals, rechargeable batteries, or cables that could potentially break or become detached. Everything is incorporated into their user-friendly, no-play quick release system.

Asetek understands that many simulation racers have individual preferences for their steering wheels. Rather than confining users to a specific eco-system, they have collaborated with a range of prominent wheel vendors who will offer native support for the Asetek SimSports® Direct Drive wheelbases. This ensures that when one chooses to invest in their products, they're entering a flexible and constantly growing ecosystem.

Asetek SimSports® is driven by an unwavering emphasis on Performance and Precision without causing a dent in the wallet. This gives their wheels a competitive advantage, enabling users to connect with the tarmac and truly become one with their virtual racecar. Not to forget, the quality and durability that users have come to associate with Asetek are guaranteed features of their products. These products are designed for endurance, and engineered, assembled, and tested in Denmark!
