What sets the Simucube 2 Sport Direct Drive Wheel Base apart?
-
Balanced Power for Control With 17Nm of torque, the Simucube 2 Sport offers enough punch to feel every turn, yet it’s more manageable for drivers who don’t need the intense force of the higher-tier models. This makes it an excellent choice for those who want power without compromising on control or comfort.
-
Compact and Lightweight Design Weighing in at just 8kg, the Simucube 2 Sport is lighter than many direct drive bases, making it easier to mount and manage in most setups. It’s a space-efficient choice that doesn’t compromise on performance, giving you the force and feel you need without requiring a massive rig to support it.
-
Ultra Low Torque Ripple The specially optimized motor in the Simucube 2 Sport delivers ultra-smooth feedback with minimal ripple. This means no graininess or notchiness, so every move feels fluid, whether you're racing on tarmac or navigating tricky off-road terrain. It’s a standout feature that helps the Sport feel much more refined than many similarly priced alternatives.
-
TrueDrive Software Integration Like its bigger siblings, the Simucube 2 Sport comes with full TrueDrive software support. This gives you the ability to customize force feedback profiles to your exact preference, or use pre-made setups from the community. No matter your driving style, you can make this wheelbase feel like an extension of yourself.

Simucube 2 Sport Direct Drive Wheel Base
The Simucube 2 Sport Direct Drive Wheel Base supports wireless wheels allowing you to connect compatible wheels effortlessly without worrying about cables. It has a standard **M8 mounting pattern**, so it can easily integrate into most racing cockpits. However, it doesn’t come with **Simucube Quick Release side parts**, meaning you may need to purchase them separately for certain wheel setups. The wheelbase is compatible with most direct drive wheel rims, but you’ll need to check for mounting adapters depending on your specific hardware.
As for gaming platforms, the **Simucube 2 Sport is fully PC-compatible**, making it a natural fit for popular sim racing titles like iRacing, Assetto Corsa, and Automobilista 2. **It’s not compatible with consoles out of the box**, so if you're a PlayStation or Xbox racer, this may not be the ideal choice unless you’re comfortable with third-party workarounds. PC gamers, on the other hand, will find everything they need right out of the box.
