I got this bundle so that I could have a round wheel for general use (with the idea of buying a formula wheel later). I've been really enjoying this wheel so far and am not in a rush to get a new wheel yet. One thing that I didn't see in other reviews or in the pics is that there are grooves in the back of the wheel for where your hands rest and it makes it even more comfortable. The leather also feels great in hand, no gloves required! The only downside to this wheel is that some of the buttons are definitely a reach to press from the natural holding position, but it's easy enough to reach with one hand while holding the wheel with the other. I'm playing in VR and have been able to train myself into knowing where each button's position is pretty quickly. Oh and the Simucube 2 is also great, but we all knew that already. :)

Hooked it up and after a bit of struggle with the setup (NOTE: the e-stop button has to be TWISTED to release if it shipped in the locked down position), I promptly started setting some personal bests within an hour or so in RBR and in WRC both. Feels great in iRacing too. The wheel itself is very high quality and I'm happy with my choice to get a full round rim, based on the amount of rally I do too. The one thing I've found slightly frustrating on the wheel is that it will occasionally time out waiting for someone to start a lobby in WRC. Make sure you have the TrueForce software up in the background so you can quickly tab to it and re-enable the torque if the wheel shuts off from inactivity.

After a few weeks of use I can honestly say that I am more than happy with my purchase. The Simucube 2 Pro is just as good as everything is making it out to be: Buttery smooth, high slew rate, finely detailed etc. If there is one thing that I can critizize then it's that the screws attaching the QR to the wheel as well as the screws that tighten the QR to the shaft were loose upon first usage which is why I experienced really bad cogging effects in the first few days before I noticed what was wrong. This kind of muddied the first experience with the wheelbase, but once I recognized and fixed theses issues I was as already said more than happy with my purchase :)

Hey, Thank you so much for the feedback! Interesting that the screws were loose on the quick release. This is something we have noted down and we will pass to the factory. Best, Gareth, Ecommerce Manager at Simucube
