That does look to be the best foldable cockpit I've seen yet. If i hadn't already got something more heavy duty, i would have one of these in mind as an upgrade to my old xracer foldable.
You're not allowed to mention an engineering background and then be miffed that you set up toppled over without you in the seat! Lol. You're the best. Just a heads up, I got the playseat trophy used on marketplace with a shifter plate for $450 U.S. Thanks for all you do.
Great content as always Karl! The pedal "tray" seems like a big up vs the PSC, but the way the wheelstand opens is a dealbreaker if you have the TV above the pedals and closer to the wheel. I have mine in a tea or sofa table 20cm from the wheelbase. I wouldn't be able to get in and out. Otherwise it looks like a great option at a great price. 209€ in Europe Edit: typo
Foldable, im always here!! Using now my Playseat Challenge with Fanatec DD+ on it with mods and that is always extra good for the Playseat Challenge. Karl, you know what the next questions would be??? .... vs....
Amazing! I have been using my Playseat Challenge for 4-5 years already and two things i did not like in it are that you cannot adjust the wheelbase height and the pedals sit flat on the floor. This one seems to solve those issues. I will definitely consider this as a replacement to the Playseat Challenge (which by the way is otherwise really good).
Can't find it on the site. Your link goes to the Hybird cockpit (I'm in the US). Also, a 2 kilo weight in that back pouch should solve the tipping problem (Maybe that's what it's for?).
@KarlGosling really? Ive been test running the simagic ultimate on the gt lite pro at 14nm and its holding up for 2 months of use. It does have some flex but its shockingly strong with the straps and I can't notice it in play. I'm talking about the pro with the straps not just the gt lite. But yes pedal area isn't adjustable but ddoesn't flex at all with p1000s. Idk ive found it shockingly sturdy and stable compared to others. I saw the way the mount for your wheelbase moved and I feel like that's much less solid and the plate holding the wheelbase is much smaller. It just seemed like it moved more. But if you tested both and feel thats more sturdy who am I to say because I've never used that one. I would just be incredibly surprised to get better then what ive been testing while moving around. I mean it barely moved when I shake it. But you so have to be incredibly precise with how everything's tightened to get it perfectly sturdy.
Wish this was available in the us. My girlfriend is looking to get me one for the holidays

Thanks for the review. Would you say it would be worth while switching to this if you already owned a playseat challenge?

@15:00 looks like a seat post clamp for a mtn bike
Tr 80 lite is surprisingly good. 12+nm
Thats not a foldable cockpit mate and £200 more expensive so I would hope so!
GT Omega prime lite-r review soon mate? also are you ever going to review the updated Treq One?
Next week hopefully.
I've no plans to right now mate.

Not available on the US it seems
Gt lite pro is the best tbh.
It's less sturdy with more flex no adjustable pedal angle and £100 more! lol
