I bought the La Prima based off your Forte review. I am so glad I put faith in your recommendations, I have loved every aspect of the La Prima gear and my GT Omega Titan. Thank you so much for your honest and thorough reviews Karl keep up all the great work.
Very kind of you to say mate thank you!
@@KarlGosling I just purchased the La Prima bundle as an upgrade from my T248 based on your video recommendations over a Moza set up, there isn’t a lot of money in it when you are spending all this money in my opinion, my budget could stretch so made sense! so thanks for always having honest reviews.
I have the csl dd load cell pedals and love them. They are quite the upgrade from the g29 pedals. It took ages to get used to the lack of travel of the load cell brake but I now prefer it completely. I did install the gas shock mod for the gas pedal. Simers say the pedals are the most important piece of the puzzle and I now agree. If you can afford better pedals than I have, get them! I know,left field comment...
So many great options to choose from now. Never been a better time to get into sim racing.
Couldn't agree more Leo!
I am totally new to sim racing and barley started about a month ago. I wasn't sure if I was going to enjoy it so I was cheap and bought the logitech G923 to run on my PS5. I'm hooked now and look to buy a better set up in the near future and this looks great for someone who wants to get serious about sim racing. Love all your videos and how honest you're reviews are. Keep up the great content!!!
Logitech is the perfect way to dip your toe in the water and yes this bundle here is an amazing upgrade and you can expand it further down the line too... can't go wrong IMO!
If it's within your budget of course, otherwise there's plenty of other options for direct drive like the Fanatec CSL DD for example.
The best, most down to earth and IMO reliable sim racing product reviewer on YT.
Thank you mate!
The key to understanding this review is to remember “ the words bundle “ ( meaning wheel, wheel drive and pedals ) and the word “ quality “ .
Great review as always from Karl .
Thanks Mark!
Karl can you do some content with a decent pc builder , get someone on your channel or do a Co-lab - designed around budget , mid and high end pc builds / costs for sim racing ??
I think the wheelbases from Asetek are top notch. Wheel is not for me, very much like a toy. Pedals based on reviews aren't the best load cells. Their hydraulic pedals I hear are great but load cell is not very consistent. Great review tho, appreciate the feedback.
looks toy-ish, but the wheel is pretty awesome quality. Very robust and tons of programability.
I like this dude. This is a great product worth the money but if your budget can't stretch that far csl dd is just fine. Dude is fucking honest.
Thanks mate, appreciate that! People are bitching at me in the comments, I even said right at the start you can buy a G920!
Always loved your reviews Karl. You and Boosted Media are the only ones i watch right through and I have the Invicta base, Forte pedals and wheel already. Good work@@KarlGosling
@KarlGosling my dude, I always watch your reviews because it feels like I am asking a good buddy if "blank" is worth the money or if I should just stay with what I have. I just got CSL DD with a NLR wheelstand 2.0, and this video reassured my satisfaction for the purchase I did. You never say in any of your videos, get this super expensive thing because the cheaper stuff is shit. The Logitech is a damn nice little wheel and a lot of fun can be had with it.
"the price will be 1 thous.." ...
me: yeah imma head out.
😆😆😆
Thats how i used to feel. Im ready to leave my T300 GT edition in the dust tho for direct drive. I need nore information in my wheel and this looks to be a good option
Coming from Moza r5, I'm looking for a better wheelbase. La Prima looks perfect but I worry slightly on the strength front vs Forte. I love the idea that you can buy La Prima now and upgrade later if desired. I heard upgrade might involve soldiering and they might have you send in your circuit board and they'll send back a new one.
I'm wondering if they just wait for La Prima v2 and have that one be up-gradable in an easier way, then I'll be stuck if I want to upgrade. How likely do you think current La Prima's will be upgrade-able if I later desire it? Do you have a source for CEO saying this? He has some excellent videos. Wondering if it came from there.
Something else awesome: Being a 12nm wheelbase running at 12nm means I don't have to worry about dialing ffb down slightly from max to minimize overheating and improve lifespan since the hardware can handle 18nm.
Karl, can this be mounted to the GT Omega Prime Lite directly, or do you require the asetek additional mounting plate etc. Thanks!
Great info as always, just got my la prima bundle and i was not ready for how stiff the brake is compared to my g29 :D
Yes very! lol
i like how you keep saying entry level for asetek and people are going crazy. great video man i got the moza R9 V2 with CS wheel love it but 9mn i dont think is enough but still better then my t300rs
Yeah they are a high end manufacturer, literally top of the tree, so for them this IS entry level! lol
Karl! Hello! Have you tried the Asetek Tony Kannan edition? It is sold at 799$ (bundle with wheel and pedals included) here in the US by MicroCenter (which is way under the La Prima bundle price). Also, I have seen on Reddit that it's closer to the Forte as it is to the La Prima. Still 12NM (upgradable) but the wheel is not missing the buttons and the wheelbase is not missing the ports! How awesome is that!? It would be great to see a review of that one if you can get your hands on one! Thinking about getting it here at the end of the month. What would be a good foldable cockpit for small apartment living that can handle a 12NM wheelbase (if any)? PS: It has to be foldable otherwise I won't have a wife no more.
I like the Asetek ethos, just so ugly I can’t stand to look at any of it… which is also important. 😢
It certainly is important, everyone's taste is different so can win them all.
if anyone lives in the usa check micro center they have the la prima bundle but with the forte wheel for $800
It has gone on sale for $600 and was mistakenly on sale for $300 at one point. Do you think it's work waiting for another sale?
@raweggs2947 idk I bought it earlier today for $800 and it's really good
I just bought this with this input. Thank you!
Just got my PXN-V12 Lite today, hopefully it doesn't disappoint. At $500 it was hard not to try it out and see if it's worth replacing my G29.
Thank you for your review.
I'm thinking about buying the La Prima bundle without the pedals and to buy the Fanatec Elite CSL V2 pedals separately.
Would you recommend differently? I think the CSL V2 brake pedal may be worth this combination.
Thanks!!
If you prefer the Fanatec pedals then go for it mate, all decent stuff IMO!
Force feedback quality, would you say the logitech g pro is finer vs the la prima base?
La Prima 100% mate!
Hi Karl,
You've mentioned it's upgradeable in the future but I can't find anything on their website about that on their website? Anything else on that?
Everything can be upgraded to make this Forte spec.
Dear Karl, thanks for the review. The 12nm sounds good (for me), but the slew rate is lower than the Forte. Is there a difference in feel ? I currently have à G920, to say how much I don't know what I'm talking about. 😅
Honestly mate you will notice no difference, I didn't!
Good stuff as always, your start always reminds me of the curry's tv advert😅lol!!!!
lol Old school!
Excellent honest review again Karl.
Cheers Rich!
Thanks for the video, great content!
Thoughts about the La Prima vs Simucube 2 Sport?
Asetek is more refined, I see no reason to go Simucube these days.
awesome review Karl. I am wondering, how do you think about the new Dirt rally WRC game? Hope they will support triple screens this time around! And with the WRC license it can be a nice one!
This is exactly what I'm hoping for too! In fact I'm going to jump on the pre-order right now.
Great Review!! I'm thinking of getting the Forte base and want to connect a different pedal set (Simagic P1000) directly to the wheelbase. I assume this will be possible by connecting them to one of the USB Type C ports without the need for an adaptor?
Thanks
Not quite as entry level as my stuff!
no one cares
logitech G920 has entered the chat...😂
@@neddyy7603 Obviously you do as you took the time to reply.
@@stephenbull2026 G29!
did you mount this to a GT Omega wheel plate? are the pre drilled holes on that compatible without an adapter from Asetek?
No you need one of their mounts mate.
Alot of good reviews on this gear. Seems the real deal
It's decent mate.
What's the best brand this moment, or best bundle to buy?
For sim racing. ( iracing, F1)😊😊😊😊
Depends on your budget mate but you can't go wrong with Asetek right now, top quality stuff at competitive prices.
It's better to buy once good stuff, than to buy 3 times junk😂
Avoid Fanatec at all costs. Worst customer experience I've had in my life. I'll be selling all my Fanatec gear and moving over to Asetek i think.
Are those Jamo Ds in the background? 😍
They are mate yes! D265A's and I also have a pair of D365's out of shot too! 😀
I have one, and am very happy :) nice to hear what you think :)
It's great IMO, smoothest and most detailed wheel bases on the market.
Nice to hear, it was my first and I think only upgrade from a logitec 29 and I didn't want to upgrade constantly but just once .@@KarlGosling
Hi Karl i have a APEX Steering Wheel Stand would this Bundle work OK on this stand ? cheers James
As with any wheel stand there will be flex and wobble but yes it will work.
Best value? £1200? What Asetek call entry level? Fuck me rigid what planet are they on.
Karl, please review the Moza R3 bundle
Yes you can pay £400 and yes you can pay £3000 but cheaper does not mean better value and more expensive does not mean a better experience... Value takes into account both.
@@KarlGosling fair point dude
Btw Karl, which would you recommend, GT Omega Prime Lite or TREQ One cockpit ( which looks to have a better pedal tray but is a bit more expensive )
Hey Karl what is the actuator setup on the rig in this review?
See my last video mate.
Is the Asetek TK Bundle the same as this bundle repackaged? Thanks
Thank you
Hi man, which rig did you test this on?
GT Omega Prime Lite
Not entry level at all. Too expensive. Too much torque for beginners. I wouldnt mount this to a desk with that much torque. Get a Moza R5 set at Microcenter for $399 and their store brand cockpit for $299. Drive it for a year and really make sure its want you want to invest real money in. If youre a casual racer keep the Moza. If you want to become hardcore and want as much realism as possible then start shopping for a new system. Youll be able to sell your Moza setup to another beginner.
Sorry, my specific suggestions will probably only work for US viewers. Not sure what is available for European viewers.
"Entry level" both in inverted comma's and specific to the Asetek range.
👍
The aesthetics of the wheel the base branding, color and price are all too exaggerated for my taste. Lmao
Taste is personal mate thats fine :)
Nobody should be advising new sim racers to spend over 1k on wheel and pedal bundle. That’s is ridiculous. Entry level my arse
You obviously didn't pay attention, I literally said at the start you could buy a Logitech G920.
And you said it’s Aseteks entry level not all sim racing entry level, big difference. Some people do have good finances that want to get into it. So if you have got the money why not buy something nice that you won’t have to upgrade
Is there any video you can recommend of converting Sparco R383 rally wheel to work with Asetek wheelbase (not USB wheel?)
It's like an entry level Ferrari. Nobody force anybody to spend 1000€/$ on a FFB wheel. You can sim race on a keyboard if you like.
This is my first wheel. What's the issue? I'd kill myself before using an ass G29.
