What sets the Ascher Racing F28-SC V2 apart?
-
Lightweight and Durable Construction The F28-SC V2 weighs just 1 kg, thanks to its aluminum build. This weight reduction doesn't come at the cost of sturdiness, as it's designed to withstand intense racing sessions, providing a solid, no-flex feel that racers love for endurance stints. The black anodized and laser-engraved finish not only looks sharp but holds up after countless hours of use.
-
Wireless Convenience One of the F28-SC V2's most praised features is its seamless wireless transmission to the Simucube 2 base, offering a clean, cable-free setup. The battery lasts up to 2-3 years under heavy use, meaning you won't need to worry about constant replacements, and hot-swapping wheels without reconfiguring inputs is a major convenience.
-
Customizable Input Layout The F28-SC V2 provides a generous 28 inputs, including 12 push buttons, magnetic paddles, and two 7-way joysticks. This setup gives racers extensive flexibility in mapping controls, from brake balance to traction control adjustments. The protective button guards help avoid accidental presses during intense moments on track.
-
Magnetic Shifter Feedback The CNC-machined magnetic paddle shifters deliver a crisp, mechanical snap that sim racers value for their feedback and durability. The included spacers and alternative magnets allow for customization, letting you adjust the shifter feel to your personal preference.

Ascher Racing F28-SC V2 Compatibility
The Ascher Racing F28-SC V2 is primarily designed for the Simucube ecosystem, working seamlessly with the Simucube 2 wheelbases via wireless connection. For Simucube 1 users, you will need an additional receiver module to connect wirelessly. The wheel features the standard 6 x 70 mm bolt pattern, making it compatible with a variety of quick-release systems, though it doesn't include one in the package. It's also worth noting that certain wheelbases, like Fanatec, require specific adapters.
In terms of platform compatibility, this wheel is primarily targeted at PC sim racers. While it works flawlessly with Simucube-connected PC systems, it's not designed for use with consoles like PlayStation or Xbox. With 28 inputs, it offers plenty of versatility for complex racing simulations like iRacing and Assetto Corsa, but is not compatible with console-exclusive titles like Gran Turismo or Forza Motorsport.
