Asetek have been a major player in the tech scene for almost 20 years, supplying many OEMs with their AIO cooling hardware. With a rich heritage in motorsports, they enter the sim racing scene with huge plans for a complete turn-key ecosystem, as well as a large-scale manufacturing capacity. Their first product? The Invicta Hydraulic Sim Racing Pedals. These pedals are available for pre-order now, with expected availability in 2022. We've got our hands on a prototype that we understand provides a very close driving experience to the final production version (we'll explain the differences in the video), so let's take a detailed look and see if they are the right pedals for you! We hope our first look at the Asetek SimSports Invicta Pedals has helped you decide if this is the right product for you.

When it comes to sim racing pedals, everyone has their preferences. So much of what makes a good set of pedals ultimately boils down to subjectivity. That said, there are some elements which are fundamental to a "good" set of pedals from a design perspective. Meca's Cup 1 Sim Racing Pedals have been on the market for a while now and seem to have established a good reputation among sim racers. So let's put them to the test and see how they stack up!
