If you want to convert the brake into conventional, horizontal position (as shown at 3:48), you can do more than just move the handle. The whole moving structure can be inverted if you take it apart. The result is a very nice brake with no piece sticking upwards. I just did that to mine.
@@austere_clicky6131 yes I would recommend this handbrake. Only issue I had was that one of the holes didn't line up, so now my handbrake is secured with 3 instead of 4 bolts. Anyway rock solid mounted so no problem for me
I just ordered the 16bit handbrake and this is very rare and be use on a sim rig just waiting to get delivered and run it on my PC and rig thank you ☺️👍
Marshy yes it is i have received it and in perfect conditon and fully functional they taken good care the way it was been shipped to it’s destination. The item is the same item it was been described on the channel and it’s worth the price for it ☺️👍
Thanks for this. I've looked at hundreds of these things and they either don't come with a table clamp or the seller doesn't bother to mention if it has a table clamp or take a photo of one and they always cost far too much for me to buy one without knowing for sure if it comes with a table clamp. But this one is $35 with a table clamp! Instant Buy. TABLE CLAMP! (edit) actually there's another one on that site that appears to be exactly the same thing but for only $13! I can't tell why one is cheaper than the other. (edit 2) I see now. Variations of the product are handled by changing the "color' option. One "color" is just the table clamp, another "color" is just the mounting plate, another "color" is the handbrake with the table clamp and without the mounting plate, etc.
@@austere_clicky6131 works great, doesn’t come with any grease on the pivot point or slides so it develops a little squeak after a while. But that’s not hard to fix.
You know when you want to put it in horizontal position, you can adjust the bottom piece so you don't have that awkward part sticking up, that's what the extra holes in the bottom piece are for. This is a common mistake I've seen on many channels. Sorry if someone's already mentioned this, I couldn't be bothered to read all the comments lol
Unfortunately, that doesn't work, I've already tested it. If you flip the bottom, piece, you'll discover the handle collides with the cover that houses the controller board when you pull the handbrake.
Didn't see anyone ask this but what is the rotating metal hook for? Is that to hold the break back at the start of the race so you don't have to do it manually? If so, the default position out of the box doesn't extend forward enough to hold the bolt but I saw the is a hole to adjust the hook and move it forward a bit. Any help is appreciated. Thank you. Well done video, very informative.
Yes, the hook is for holding full lock on the handbrake. It's a redundant feature as the lever doesn't come back far enough to hook it around the bolt. Of course it's a modded version of the handbrake, so I guess it would have worked before. I ended up removing the hook as it rattled around a bit.
@@austere_clicky6131 yes i can recommend it, i got one like this on amazon, works perfect, it got a bit of sideways play but nothing that hinders the experience.For the price it's a no brainer.👍
I have one, I have had it for about a year however when I first got it the magnet came off and it came with no clamp. I had to super glue the magnet back on and find a clamp i already had. Apart from that it does its job and there is an allen screw at the back you can tighten up to reduce the deadzone.
Hey, do you know the distance between mounting holes and/or the mounting hole diameter? I want to buy one of these handbrakes but want to know if i cant mount them first, as I do not want to use the clamps. Thanks, great review!
Nice review again mate!👍 A bit weak in resistance, but hey, for that price! 💪 I went with the other one as an extra hand brake do to mounting, and guessing the resistance will be pretty weak on that too. But thinking about how little I use the hand brake even though I rally quite a bit, it's hard to justify a more expensive one.
You are dead right, a handbrake doesn't normally get used a whole lot. For the video, I pre-selected a track with as many sharp bends as I could find and overused it for demonstration purposes.
What a bargain, I've just ordered mine I've been looking at this one and with for a while, wow a saving of £19 pound wow steal nice one more Debt awww well lol

When my one arrived the 4 holes in the top half of the mounting bracket did not all align with the holes in the bottom of the handbrake unit. I reported this to Banggood and have had an initial response but at the time of writing this comment the issue has not been resolved. Happy to update this comment if I get a satisfactory outcome.
Nice review and amazing promo code. but short question: How did you exactly mount it onto your rig? i have this type of rig aswell but i have no clue how to mount it😅
Mounted to 2 pieces of profile through the bolt holes in the handbrake base, which are connected to main arm. Watch it closely, it's simple enough. ua-cam.com/video/dyxRyXr8QnI/v-deo.html
Yeah I hooked this up to my manual truck, got it all set up, and when I pulled it, even though I hooked up my e brake cable to it, I heard a loud bang under my feet and now my e brake doesn't work, is this product fake and how do I get my money back
Hey I really liked your vid, was a good review and it was enough to make me want one haha, I ordered one and it said pre order, which I was fine with, but a few days after it sent? I’m just confused as it said pre order, has a tracking number but It isn’t trackable, not sure if that’s because it’s not in my country yet and or it’s not in the system, just confused and wondering if I should be concerned/ worried lol
You should be fine, tracking numbers don't get on the system right away. I've used Banggood quite a few times for bits and pieces and I've always found them to be reliable.
Hello SRC! I went through loads of comments trying to find the answer to my question but to no sucsess. So if u wouldn't mind me asking, do you know if this works with a Thrustmaster T300? Thankyou.
sup, bought similar brake and disassembled it directly.. nothing special but a female USB-A port (but it’s connected via USB-C) and a few lanes that aren’t soldered anyways. later in “calibration” it showed me 8 or more buttons. 🤔 confusing & weird because it seems possible to build a button box out of it. I’m wondering what said Typ A provides 😂
Hey when you get a handbrake does it have to match up with the bit of your pc ? Because I bought a 14 bit and it wouldn’t calibrate to my wheel setting so I just purchased a 64 bit which is my pc bit size so you think it’ll work ? !
I just ordered one, but I need the hole pattern / drill template to prepare a mount for my rig. Could you give me the dimensions of those 4 holes to mount it? Like distance and diameter?
Same lmao. For the past year I’ve been watching these racing sim vids and thinking that it costed thousands of dollars to get everything I finally looked it up yesterday and have now spent over 400 dollars lmao
@@austere_clicky6131 Works great. I will say its not 100% essential unless youre into rally games or something youre drifting in. But i got one for about $90 and im glad I have it. I think its the one item in the setup you can go cheap on.
@@DmanDice ok, yes, I will be doing racing, as well as drifting so I wanted a good handbrake that would last and be atleast decent, thanks and I will be buying it, what caught me on it was the price tho, I was looking at some that were $250 while this is around $100, depending on the website
Some are saying this doesn't work for Forza Horizon 4 because it's analog, (Which iirc just means that it has different force from 0% to 100% pulled right?) I currently use a flight joystick as a handbrake just fine but wanted to upgrade to a proper handbrake. Is anyone 100% sure this doesn't work???
I have a question can some one help me? I have this same hand brake but can not get it to work with Forza Horizon 4 , but I when I test it it shows that it’s working. I give up
does this work for the pxn v9? pls answer as soon as possible, im thinking of getting the pxn v9 as a gift... if no, please recommend me cheap and good drifting sim racing wheels with ebrake, thanks!
One of the bolts is slightly angled, you can see it here. ua-cam.com/video/dyxRyXr8QnI/v-deo.html I wouldn't say it was a major issue, as it all held together firmly. I wonder if just using two bolts, one front and opposite angle on the rear would still be okay?
5:40 i assume its just because its setup for drifting, in the majority of cars setup for drifting (in my experience) you will find the handbrake will be setup pretty loose. i personally like it that way myself also
Can you flip the lower part of the handbrake so that it sticks out the way a streetcar's handbrake does? I know this requires disassembly but the mounting holes seem to allow that.
Haven't you guy got recently an error with windows? (descriptor driver error 43) it suddently came up, the handbrake was working fine until 2 weeks ago
I don't know why, but mine has a giant deadzone in the start and when it starts detecting the travel it reaches 100% so quick, almost before middle of the total travel. Does anyone has any tips on how to calibrate this or mod?
Was the usb cable hard to push into the usb hole? I ordered this, and got it then go to plug the usb in and the little thing just snaps with ease. Wasnt to happy but i sent it back and am getting a new one from them.
It wasn't difficult in plug the micro USB. I've had no problems, but I can tell the micro USB connector is a fragile component and a yank could break it off the board. Use a cable tie to told the USB cable to the shifter to relieve any tension and you should be fine. Mine arrived already like that.
.... No no no.... to make it a horizontal handbrake... you pull the slip ring. Take out the main bolt and flip the whole upright handle. That sets it to horizontal position.
It doesn't work out so well, I've just tested it. What happens in this orientation, the lever hits the plastic cover holding the controller board and that could easily get damaged. It was worth testing it out, so thanks for the comment.
Like how did u get it connected to the pc did u just plug it in then it started working or did u have to like go into settings or something to connect it
@@darraghmcdaniel6217 Yes, it's plug and play. Once connected it will show in the Windows 'Game Controllers' panel. To show that panel type Game Controllers in the 'Type here to search' on your desktop. If that's all good, then you know it's working. Then you map the handbrake in-game to the handbrake setting in your driving game. Basically, just like mapping any other device, button or key.

is this any different from the ebay one?
Is the sale still going?? I think im a tiny bit late for the sale
Ok so did you not plug your wheel into it or do you know if it works for xbox?
Read the video description.
Hello, mine squeaks at the side nut, is the use of grease required?
Well I got my USB handbrake but the mounting bracket the screw holds slightly off at the back they don't match how was yours? I told them grrrrr
One of the bolts is slightly angled, you can see it here. ua-cam.com/video/dyxRyXr8QnI/v-deo.html
I wouldn't say it was a major issue, as it all held together firmly. I wonder if just using two bolts, one front and opposite angle on the rear would still be okay?
Is this also compatible with the Logitech G920 wheel?
On PC yes, not consoles.
Sure thing, thanks man
What is the difference between 14 and 16 bit?
2
is this compatible with the logitech g29 for forza on pc?
What button do you bind the handbrake to in game for it work?
There will be a Handbrake key binding in the game. You map the handbrake to that.
Sim Racing Corner Right but how does the pc recognize the handbrake in game? Do you just engage the handbrake while binding it and it recognizes it?
@@zachmikovitz5616 Yes, just like mapping keys, or pedals. Exactly the same principle.
Sim Racing Corner thanks bro!
Will it plug into any USB on the PC and will it work on Iracing? Man it's cheap
Yes to both
5:40 i assume its just because its setup for drifting, in the majority of cars setup for drifting (in my experience) you will find the handbrake will be setup pretty loose. i personally like it that way myself also
Where can I download that handbrake program/software to change my handbrake settings as you did in the video?
Not even a please.
Can you flip the lower part of the handbrake so that it sticks out the way a streetcar's handbrake does? I know this requires disassembly but the mounting holes seem to allow that.
I tested that and it doesn't work, as in that orientation, when pulled the lever collides with the cover housing, containing the circuit board.
@@SimRacingCorner I see. Finding a horizontal handbrake for simracing is a bit hard so I was wondering if this worked. Thanks.
It’s overpriced now which sucks, it’s the same cost as a thrustmaster hand break but either way it seems legit great review
That is not the case now, one year later. At least in my country (Norway)
under half price, ofcourse before shipping and taxes
What does the 16 bit mean
It refers to the steps of sensitivity. 16-bit resolution = 65536 steps
Haven't you guy got recently an error with windows? (descriptor driver error 43) it suddently came up, the handbrake was working fine until 2 weeks ago
Shoot I got the handbrake with no clamp can you help me find a solution that would REALLY HELP
its working for other games to ?
like assetto corsa etc
Yes
What shifter was that
Anybody know why the Z axis stays stuck on 50% whilst calibrating the handbrake?
What’s the difference between 14 bit hall and 16 bit hall?
Higher resolution of sensitivity
Sim Racing Corner I’ve found one that’s 14 bit hall for about $70 which is better for the budget. Will it still perform as well as the 16 bit hall
I am pretty sure it does but I wanted to verify if this handbrake will work with Forza Horizon 4
@@lyyn8545 I expect it will work just as well
@@lyyn8545 I don't know
I don't know why, but mine has a giant deadzone in the start and when it starts detecting the travel it reaches 100% so quick, almost before middle of the total travel. Does anyone has any tips on how to calibrate this or mod?
me: hears coupon code
video: sorry if you're late and miss the expiration
the video came out almost 2 years ago lmaoo
Was the usb cable hard to push into the usb hole? I ordered this, and got it then go to plug the usb in and the little thing just snaps with ease. Wasnt to happy but i sent it back and am getting a new one from them.
It wasn't difficult in plug the micro USB. I've had no problems, but I can tell the micro USB connector is a fragile component and a yank could break it off the board. Use a cable tie to told the USB cable to the shifter to relieve any tension and you should be fine. Mine arrived already like that.
@@SimRacingCorner yeah yours looked like it went right in, mine i had too add some force witch caused that too snap but thank you.
Hi, does this handbrake work in Forza Horizon 5 game on PC?
Yes
I want to buy this but I have a chonky desk just wondering what is the size of the clamp?
How thick if your desk?
@@SimRacingCorner 40mm
@@roryharty6954 You're okay, 40mm is just within the limit of the clamp.
I just got one but... What does the red hook thing do?
You can ignore that. It was for holding the handbrake fully locked.
@@SimRacingCorner ok, thanks
would it be possible to mount this like most handbrakes in cars are mounted so you pulled up on it instead of towards you?
The handle is adjustable and I demonstrate the orientation you have described this in the review.
Will this work with a drive hub for consoles?
.... No no no.... to make it a horizontal handbrake... you pull the slip ring. Take out the main bolt and flip the whole upright handle. That sets it to horizontal position.
It doesn't work out so well, I've just tested it. What happens in this orientation, the lever hits the plastic cover holding the controller board and that could easily get damaged. It was worth testing it out, so thanks for the comment.
@@SimRacingCorner oh really... They should have cloned my design better then lol
Do i need a clutch to work with handbrake
No
See when u plugged the handbrake into the pc how did u connect it cuz I have the same exact handbrake
What do you mean exactly?
Like how did u get it connected to the pc did u just plug it in then it started working or did u have to like go into settings or something to connect it
@@darraghmcdaniel6217 Yes, it's plug and play. Once connected it will show in the Windows 'Game Controllers' panel. To show that panel type Game Controllers in the 'Type here to search' on your desktop.
If that's all good, then you know it's working. Then you map the handbrake in-game to the handbrake setting in your driving game. Basically, just like mapping any other device, button or key.
@@SimRacingCorner cheers thanks must say the vids are good wish ya all the best
@@darraghmcdaniel6217 👍
Does the code still work?
Is this only for PC or can you use it for Xbox?
PC only
how many kg?
please help! When i got the handbrake and tested it on my pc and it doesnt work :( is there any fix?
Does it show up in the Windows Game Controllers panel? Also what game/s have you tried it with?
@@SimRacingCorner It comes up but it doesn’t work
@@businesskaram8134 so it doesn't register movement in the game controller properties?
@@SimRacingCorner Yeah
@@businesskaram8134 it sounds like it's faulty, you should contact the seller
Can I use it with a T150/G29....!? How does it connect to the wheel...!? Thanks 😊✌️
It's plugs directly in into a PC USB socket, and works with any wheel. It's not consoles.
