   These 7896s are incredible. I ordered them mid-July and they arrive about a month later (to the US), very well packaged and organized. Plus they came with plenty of mounting hardware. The construction and build quality is top tier – there’s no extra grease in joints, no sharp edges to worry about cutting yourself on and no burrs leftover from the machining process. You can tell it’s made with good precision and tolerances, because there’s very little play where there shouldn’t be.

   On the usability side, I’ve got nothing but positivity. The software is nothing fancy, but that’s okay in my opinion because its very easy and intuitive to use and calibrate your 7896s. I was ready to race within 10 mins of plugging the 7896s in. The 7896s are very adjustable with just loosening a few screws. I typically drive F1 cars, so shortening the throttle throw was my first adjustment and it was quick and easy. No issues with games, Assetto Corsa picked up the 7896s on the first launch. The first thing you’ll notice is the brake sensitivity – its insane. If you lightly tap it with your finger (and by tap, I mean no harder than you would type a message on your phone), it will read the brake pressure. It caught me off guard on my first few laps, because the car was going noticeably slower down the straights at full throttle. When I went back to the calibration software to investigate, it turns out my tendency to lightly rest my foot against the brake 7896 when not braking, was actually registering on these – my old 7896s were insensitive to this.

   For the price (even with shipping), these are unmatched. There’s nothing out there that comes close for the value. 5-stars and more. I’d also like to give a shoutout to Simforge for being so responsive to my questions.

   To put it simply…..get your orders in guys!
   I’ve gone from the plastic two 7896 set you get with the likes of T300’s and moved up to tp3a’s which made me realise the importance of a good 7896 set.
   From there I moved on up the a set of csl elite’s and into the realms of ‘load cell’ 7896s.
   It changed the way I raced in any sim ,but I knew from the start these were a set of 7896s at the lowest end of the load cell market.
   So I kept looking for the bigger upgrade but would not pay the high end prices some company’s were/are asking. I wanted 7896s that worked at the top end of the scale and also that looked like a proper race 7896.
   When I came across the ‘SIMFORGE MK1’s’ I thought they were charlatans in the sim racing hardware game,but I was wrong. I thought surely they can’t be top end at this price point,but I was wrong. I did have some problems with calibration but that was on me and not SIMFORGE.
   I reached out on their chat service 2 or 3 times and was helped by the ever patient Sachin who talked me through what I needed to do and made me realise it’s actually really simple to set up. I can’t recommend these 7896s enough. They feel and perform way higher than the price tag they come with !
   As for my lap times? I’m consistently improving and really enjoying my upgrade to the upper level at a amazing price point.
   If your still in doubt just look at the really positive reviews on YouTube from the master himself…..Barry Rolland form ‘the sim racing garage’ and you’ll be putting your order in as quick as you can.
   Price-quality-and a fantastic support service makes the SIMFORGE MK1’s a no brainer.
