How each score was set
Usability 6.5 /10
From published features and owner comments · not a lab test.
- Specs and compatibility7.0/10
- Four of six: 3 inch aluminum profile from Canadian alloy, mounts for Fanatec, Simucube and Asetek bases, wheelbase and pedal compatibility by brand, and a reviewer's 20 Nm use. No weight, dimensions or safety listing found.
- Warranty and returns8.0/10
- Lifetime replacement warranty on its own hardware and a 30-day return, but open-box items cost 15 percent and return shipping is the buyer's.
- Setup and software5.0/10
- Three of five: ASR 3 instructions and build videos, wheel, pedal and seat adjustment, and parts and add-ons sold. Noise and dated updates not stated.
- Price and extras6.0/10
- $549.99 US for the matte black chassis with free shipping over a spend threshold; seat, pedal heel rest and wheel deck options cost extra.
- Support and owner reports6.0/10
- Email, a sales line and a Montreal showroom; owners praise quick replies, while a 2023 buyer saw a 2 to 3 week lead time turn into over 5 weeks.
