The Asetek SimSports Forte S-Series delivers an ultra-stiff, high-force braking experience designed for maximum muscle memory. In contrast, the Simagic P1000-2 offers a highly modular platform built for deep customization and official ecosystem upgrades.
The Asetek brake is extremely rigid out of the box with very short travel, which some drivers find too stiff to modulate comfortably. On the Simagic side, some users report load cell input drop-offs when using elastomers, and the pedal frame feels thinner than older heavy-duty sets.
If you experience input fluctuations on the Simagic P1000-2, switching from elastomers to the official Simagic optional spring kit resolves the issue. For the Asetek pedals, the RaceHub software conveniently saves your calibration settings directly to the onboard EPROM.
Choose the Asetek Forte S-Series if you want a rock-solid, ultra-stiff brake with a massive 180 kg load cell and independent pedal mounting. Opt for the Simagic P1000-2 if you prefer a highly customizable pedal set that you can continuously upgrade with official haptic and hydraulic add-ons.
