Next Level Racing Wheel Stand 2.0

I'm a 51 year old GP who has enjoyed sim-racing since the original GT on the original PS. I've always had a wheel of some sort to play them, but generally something cost effective as I was a student, and they kept breaking. So I used a Logitech GT Force, and the G25, always on a stand I hacked together from an old desk my GF (now wife) had. IT did the job, but had lots of flex and looked like crap. So, the next level wheel stand? Absolutely fantastic. Initially had it set up with the G25 and it improved the force feedback immeasurably. Then I put a Logitech G Pro Racing Wheel on it, and boy I'm in heaven. Pop the Occulus 3 on, and I can drive stupidly fast on several of the most famous circuits on the planet. It's pretty easy to build, a little fiddly to know how to angle the various plates that need to be angled, and I would suggest you have a good look at your wheel and pedals before hand and decide the best orientation in advance. It's plenty solid enough, I'm using a pretty heavy load-cell break and it only very occasionally moves under pressure when I'm really over-doing it. The gear shifter/handbrake table is a bit rubbish sadly. It's functional enough but you get very few positions you can put it in, and it's uncharacteristically wobbly compared to the rest of the unit. There have been complaints of heaviness. I'm of average build, maybe 70kg, and have no issue moving it from storage position to sofa position, about 2m. I haven't tried folding it away, looks like it would do this quite well but I've got the room not to need to do it fortunately. ABS haptic module on my list for Santa.

I bought this item as I am getting more into racing sims. Nothing is worse than trying to keep up a competitive pace only to have the pedal box move out of alignment, or the clamps holding the wheel not being quite as secure as you might like. Being completely honest this one was more expensive than I ideally wanted to spend, but having the ability to lock my office chair into the frame using the front casters sealed the deal. First off I will say, this is a HEAVY unit, rock solid construction but not something that is all that easy to move. It is not impossible by any means but smaller folks may need help. I will be moving mine quite regularly from a deployed position in front of my PC to folded away against the wall. Not a reason not to buy, but something to be aware of. The packaging was good with a comprehensive set of instructions to build the unit. If buying, take the time to check, check and check again that you are assembling everything the right way around, the plate that the pedal box mounts to in particular. The unit comes partially assembled and you get all the bolts, allan keys etc that you need to do so. I took the time to attach the wheel and pedals to their respective mounting plates so that I could get a better feel for the height of the wheel, angle of the pedals etc. This isn't something referenced in the instruction booklet but I would recommend it. OK so enough of the pre-amble Snowy, you are saying I am sure, what about using it? With the unit set up and F1 2023 running on my gaming PC, I gave the new setup a try. If you use a pedal-box on the floor, you will know about movement there no matter how good the carpet grips may be., especially using more modern pedal boxes with higher resistance on the brakes. What I hadn't appreciated though is how much I had held back from aggressive steering inputs with the wheel clamped onto my desk. With my wheel and pedals (Logitech G920) bolted physically to the frame, there is absolutely zero movement. Mounted to the stand, the wheel and pedals now feel like the are attached to the body of a car, there is no flex, no movement at all that you can apply that will cause any kind of movement to the frame. This lets you stomp on the brakes, wrench the wheel to catch a slide, and everything just stays true and solid. I don't have space for a full cockpit setup (seat etc) but if I want to expand the setup down the ways, the Next Level Racing kit will allow me to do so without having to buy a whole new unit. Equally it provides me with the perfect mid-point that matches my needs and available space - I have a much better sim racing rig now with the added bonus of being able to fold it and move it aside when not in use. Very happy customer, would recommend Next Level Racing products based on this experience. Well made, well engineered, good instructions for the assembly and well packaged.

This is a very sturdy & practical stand to mount racing wheels, pedals & handbrake/gear shifters. I'm using this for the Moza R5 with TSW Truck Wheel, Truck Wheel Mount Bracket & SRP-Lite pedals with brake performance upgrade. Conveniently folds with the pedals & steering intact. Its very heavy though, and even folded it takes up a bit of space, so make sure you can store it somewhere when not using it (too heavy to store anywhere except on the floor)

very stable, straightforward to assemble, as other reviewers have said it is not light but it is well made, easy to attach my logitech g923 wheel and pedals to although i did use youtube as a guide because i lack any mechanical empathy! this is a good product

The first thing to know is - it's very heavy. Too heavy to be lugging about. I fitted two small castors to the front, all you need is a pair of small castors with an 8mm tread that will screw into the frame. The threaded holes are already in the frame. I'm using it with a Fanatec GT DD pro 8nm and the CSL elite V2 pedals. I use it on a couch so I have to use a strut to stop the frame from being pushed forward when I'm using it. With the V2 pedals I'm applying a lot of force. Gotta say it's a very good quality frame, well designed and comes with plenty of bolts. With other stands you would have to go to the hardware store for more bolts. There is absolutely no flex using the 8nm DD pro. This stand is for someone who hasn't the space for a full racing rig. It's the next best thing. If you were using pedals that didn't have a load cell you wouldn't need a strut because it wouldn't move. I think it's the best racing stand on the market. It'd probably handle anything up to 12nm maybe even 15nm

Got for my boyfriend, held nicely have had for over a year now, no issues at all, easy setup. Great product. Not too expensive.

Easy to assemble with either the paper or video instructions. Very sturdy frame. I mounted the Fanatec CSL DD wheel base and pedals, the frame stays solid and doesn't budge. The chair tray is a great feature. Solid investment for your sim racing, as it is extensible with a fixed racing chair if you ever wanted to. Mind that it's heavy by itself, even heavier with wheel base and pedals mounted. You can fold it, but I can recommend getting some M8x15 wheels with brakes to move it around and save your back. The frame already has the holes provided as it comes with some basic feet in the package.

I was looking for something solid to mount a direct drive wheel base to that I could get slide out of the way and fold up when I need to. All parts of the stand are actually pretty thick pieces of steel. This makes the whole setup VERY heavy (wheel stand, wheel base and rim, pedals, shifter, and, button box). This doesn’t take away from my rating - if you want a lighter wheel stand that is easier to move, you buy one that is made with more lightweight material and that will likely flex more. I use mine on carpet and have carpet sliders under the included wide rubber feet and it is easy enough to slide around. The chair cradle works well and keeps my chair and wheel stand together even with the carpet sliders under the stand. Great adjustability! I like to race and truck and I change my setup when I go between them. For trucking, I move the pedal try a little closer, and I tilt the wheel back. When I race I move the pedal tray a little farther away and tilt the wheel down. Compatibility is great. I have a Fanatec wheel base and heusinkveld sprints and everything mounted with no problems. I do not have the heusinkveld pedal base plate - the pedals are mounted directly to the wheel stand 2.0 pedal plate and I have no issues. When braking very hard, this plate DOES flex slightly, however this flex would probably be eliminated by using the heusinkveld pedal base plate mounted to the wheel stand 2.0 pedal plate. There are a couple small things I wish were different - I wish they shipped smooth plastic feet with the stand so you could slide it easier on carpet so that I didn’t have to use other carpet sliders that aren’t secured to the stand, I wish you could tilt the wheel back slightly more, and I’m not the biggest fan of the shifter mount. I’m not sure how they could improve it, but when using it, the shifter isn’t in the most natural feeling position (I have two pieces of 8020 aluminum secured together at a right angle and clamped to the mount and my shifter is mounted to the 8020, placing the shifter in a lower, more natural position - it’s less stiff but in VR you don’t notice and it works great). This design could be improved SLIGHTLY but for the price, this is a no brainer. I had previously been using a wheel mounted to my desk and the difference is night and day. I gave this 5 stars instead of 4 because of the quality, and the issues I had were so minor they either don’t really matter, or you can work around them. Great stand for a good price! Would recommend to anyone looking for a STURDY wheel stand!

Après l'utilisation d'un stand entrée de gamme, j'ai commandé le wheel stand 2.0 bien noté sur le web. Et on comprend pourquoi, rien qu'au déballage. Double carton, papier bulles sur tous les éléments, visserie au top légèrement huilée afin d'éviter toute corrosion, et des tôles ayant une belle épaisseur évitant toute fragilité et flexion. Montage simple et une fois monté le stand semble ancré dans le sol tellement aucun mouvement parasite ne vient troublé une séance de simracing. C'est du très costaud et mention spéciale au godet anti glisse qui permet de bloquer l'ensemble stand, chaise. A noter que cet accessoire permet deux réglages en longueur, un avec les pieds dans le godet et l'autre avec les pieds devant. Très intéressant quand des personnes de tailles différentes utilise le stand. Ça permet de modifier les réglages sans dévisser quoi que ce soit. Le glissement de la plaque du pédalier aide aussi à régler les distances sans prise de tête. Bref! J'ai rarement vu une telle qualité et un tel souci de satisfaire l'acheteur. Pour preuve, c'est fourni avec une palanquée de vis M6 de 15mm pour fixer tout pédalier et tout volant. Avec un fauteuil acheté une centaine d'euros et ce stand, j'ai une configuration au top à moins de 350 euros. A noter que j'utilise uniquement une position GT et non F1 plus couchée et cela même sur un F1 23.

Me llego el producto en el tiempo correcto, el transportista muy amable y cuidadoso con el paquete. Una vez abres el paquete (muy bien envuelto) comienzas a percibir que los materiales muy buenos y resistentes, las instrucciones de uso son fáciles de entender y con dibujos que facilitan su montaje (por poner un pero solo están en inglés), también tienes un QR para poder ver un video del montaje. se monta el Copkit en aprox 1 hora sin prisas y de forma sosegada, todo encaja perfectamente y de manera sencilla, excepto en mi caso el brazo extensible para el cambio de marcha, que se unía al armazón central y estaba muy justo, pero con un poco de esfuerzo se realizó sin complicaciones. Una vez montado el copkit es pesado y requiere de un esfuerzo para moverse, en mi caso compre también la alfombra de Next level racing y de esta manera me fue mucho más fácil moverlo por la habitación, también existen una ruedas para este copkit que muy probablemente compre para una mayor comodidad a la hora de moverlo de sitio. El Copkit Whell Stand 2.0 es muy robusto y cumple su cometido con creces, no se mueve ni un ápice, aunque realices maniobras fuertes con el volante o la pedalera. Tiene pinta de ser un producto muy duradero y además es ampliable en el futuro con diferentes accesorios next lever racing, poniendo esta marca un poco más fácil la inversión inicial para gente como yo que somos neófitos en esto del simracing y que dudamos en invertir tanto dinero en copkits mucho más caros y luego no utilizarlos. Resumen: producto genial y robusto, mucho mejor que instalar el volante en cualquier mesa o pequeños brazos habilitados para simracing. recomiendo su compra además lo compre en dto en amazon a un precio muy bueno (194€). se pliega y ocupa mucho menos espacio del esperado. Recomiendo este copkit a todo aquellos que quieran iniciarse en el simracing y tengan dudas que comprar.
