I ordered these back in April and received them in May (USA). First and foremost, shoutout to the team for working (safely) through the pandemic to get orders filled. The pedals were nicely packaged and safe during shipping. All three pedals have a solid finish and you can tell they are built from quality materials. In terms of performance – these will blow you away. After setting them up doing a few laps, I noticed my lap times getting consistent and eventually started improving. Overall I really like the adjustability and versatility of these pedals, you can really adjust them to your likings and their performance is on point. 10/10. Great job on these!

Ordered late April, arrived in June(the long lewd time isn’t their fault, but covid restrictions which were understandable)
These pedals are simply great. Value for money, incredible good build quality and solid construction. I truly am satisfied with this purchase. Easily mountable, and user friendly, pretty much plug and play. My lap times were more consistent, and faster than what it ever was before.
Simforge themselves are really good with replying any questions I have regarding the pedals and even with delivery updates.
If you’re on a budget(or not) these pedals are probably the best at this price point. Highly recommended. Hope to see more products from them.

Ordered the pedals in Augustus and received them in September. They give good updates about the shipping process.
The pedals are easy to adjust, versatile and build out of quality material. After using them for a couple of weeks somehow the pedals were not working anymore. I contacted the support and they helped me the same day although it was almost midnight for them. The have good knowledge and they knew exactly how to fix the problem. My rating for service is 10/10

I have been using my set of pedals for two weeks and still fine tuning it as there are many adjustments that can be considered. At this stage I would say that main benefit compared to the previous set is the consistency of the lap times. I can now run in a window of 0.25secs for several laps while with the previous set it was very very hard. In terms faster lap time the gain in my case is of about 0.4sec, but for sure the muscle memory still not trained as I have been changing settings a lot.
Overall really happy, I can only advise you to get some!

So I upgraded my old Logitech DFGT wheel to a Fanatec CSL DD. My Logitech was so old that the pedals that came with the kit used a serial port! So obviously a pedal upgrade was necessary to pair with the CSL DD.
The obvious choice would have been the Fanatec Clubsport V3 pedals. They tie-in with the Fanatec ecosystem well and there is even a dedicated port on the back of my new wheelbase just for Fanatec pedals. However, for a nearly identical price point, the SimForge Mk I pedals showed up on my radar from this obscure start-up out of India that only makes this one single product. It was a tough decision to make. Fanatec is a well-regarded company that has been around for a long time. The Clubsport V3’s were the “safe bet” in terms of purchasing choices. Yet I went with the SimForge and I am very happy that I did.
Why?
The Clubsport pedals are probably fine. I dunno since I haven’t tried them. What they are NOT is easily configurable. The Clubsports are basically “fixed” into their current orientation with little room for flexibility when it comes to custom configuration. I’ve seen intrepid DIY’ers have a go at customizing the Clubsports on YouTube, but from watching them I learned that the V3’s definitely aren’t designed to be easily adjustable outside of their stock configuration.
The SimForge pedals, on the other hand, are infinitely configurable by design. They can be mounted any distance apart from one another. More importantly, they can easily be adapted to an inverted orientation due to the angle adjustments on the pedals. Personally, I think the SimForge pedals look much cooler than the Clubsport too.
SimForge pedals are everything that appealed to me about the Heusinkveld Sprints, except they are half the cost. At this point I am 100% satisfied with both the pedals and the company, which has been very responsive to my inquires. Customer service has been excellent. As such, I would highly recommend these pedals to anybody looking to upgrade to a loadcell brake setup. I think these SimForge pedals are perfect for my needs and they will probably be the end of my upgrade chain for this particular component.

OK here we go…
My story starts with the pedals arriving actually 3 days earlier than initially indicated to the UK.
Ordered these pedals back in 2021, and delivery was smooth, pedals were well packed with enough bubble wrap to protect a whole village.
No issues there…however my issues began not a week in, where my pedals started acting up.
“We” later figured out this was due to the board being “faulty” or underdeveloped.
“we” means me and the guys at Simforge.
It was actually a great customer experience with them, they set my pedals up, they checked everything, even reflashed the firmware.
After the culprit was found, they sent me a new revision of the electronics board free of charge with quick delivery.
I never had to look back since, the pedals and the board are rock solid, never had a single issue from then on.
They are not allowed to send these lubricated, so do yourself a favor and get some quality lubricant, otherwise they can get a bit squeaky.
Pedals are great value for money and I never heard anyone complain about them that tried them, fantastic piece of kit.

Update: 1 Year Review
I’ve had Mark 1 pedals with the old electronic board for over a year now,, and I figured it was time to revisit my review and talk about longevity – and how they have fared with hard use over the course of a year… and….I still love them. In the past year, I’ve made updates to my Sim Racing Rig, new DD motor, new wheel, new shifter, new handbrake, but the pedals have remained the same.
The Mark 1 pedals still feel solid, the braking, acceleration and clutch still feel consistent and I have not had to make any adjustments or tinker with any settings. Every once in a while, I will have to recalibrate using the DiView software but it’s nothing crazy. The pedals have been through heavy usage and have consistently performed. In fact, my lap times are still improving.
Shout out to SimForge for making a great product! I’m looking forward to seeing what else they come out with in the future! Still 10/10.

First I have to say a big Thanks! I can’t say enough good things about these pedals. They replaced a set of CSPV1’s with Bodnar electronics (because the original went bad) and they are sooo much better. The throttle and brake are very linear in iRacing. Much better throttle and brake control. The adjustability as awesome. The build quality is outstanding. The packaging was great as well. Software is easy to set up. I highly recommend these to anyone.
