Description
Cube Controls SP01 Core Pedals offer that rare blend of design purity and performance tuning that makes them feel like they were made for your feet and your rig. Built from CNC-machined aerospace aluminum and designed with obsessive attention to detail, the SP01 Core packs serious feel into a compact package. The adjustability is intuitive, the load cell is rock solid, and the smoothness of travel makes every modulated brake or throttle input feel calculated—because it is.
What Sets the Cube Controls SP01 Core Pedals apart?
-
Compact Design Without Compromise Some pedal sets go big and heavy to prove their strength—SP01 Core does the opposite. It’s lightweight and compact but structurally rigid where it counts, thanks to its single-block CNC aluminum chassis and FEM-optimized design. It doesn’t flex under pressure and doesn’t demand a full cockpit rebuild just to fit. Users love how easily it integrates into tight rigs without giving up performance or modularity.
-
Tool-Free Adjustments That Actually Work The SP01 Core gives you direct, easy access to spring preload and pedal throw without diving into a toolbox. A dedicated knob on the throttle and clearly marked adjustments on the brake and pedal plates let you dial in your feel with minimal downtime. Feedback from users highlights how fast they can switch between GT, Formula, or Rally setups with confidence and without frustration.
-
Pedal Feel That Reflects Load and Motion Naturally This set uses a 200kg load cell with an improved kinematic design that transmits pressure directly to the sensor. That’s more than just numbers—it translates to a smooth, progressive braking feel that doesn’t spike or fade. Combine that with the redesigned main spring and dampers, and you get a pedal stroke that feels planted but never dull. It responds like something twice its weight, but with better balance.
-
Upgradeable Through Performance Kit Compatibility Unlike many entry-level sets that lock you into the stock feel, the SP01 Core is compatible with Cube Controls’ existing performance kit. That means swappable elastomers, additional damper options, and custom springs—opening up tuning for different disciplines or sim titles. Racers who've already invested in the upgrade path appreciate how it scales with them, rather than needing to be replaced once they level up their gear.

The Cube Controls SP01 Core Pedals connect directly via USB-C and are fully compatible with PC-based sim racing setups. They do not require an external control box, making cable management cleaner and setup easier, especially for compact rigs. The pedals integrate smoothly with sim platforms such as iRacing, Assetto Corsa, ACC, and rFactor 2. For users looking to expand, the pedals are compatible with Cube Controls’ performance upgrade kit, allowing for long-term tuning flexibility.
As with most gear in this class, the SP01 Core is not compatible with PlayStation or Xbox consoles and has no console-specific firmware or compatibility layers. These pedals are designed for PC sim racers looking to get serious with a modular, scalable setup that performs well out of the box and continues to grow with additional tuning. If you’re building a dedicated PC rig, they slot right in and deliver strong results from day one.
