There are a number of people who only play driving simulations, simply they are rarely anything other than gaming interests. Because there are so technically advanced games, it is necessary to have adequate wheel that will stay in step with the times. Mentioned group of people will easily extracted and a large sum for the top product in their sphere of interest. New Logitech G25 has all the adjectives with the prefix "the best", so the price that is adequate. largest market wheel.
Key features
- Exceptional quality of materials including leather and stainless steel
- Strong and consistent force feedback twin
- A six-speed transmission and rikvecom, manual or sequential mode
- The third pedal
- Weight and robust components
- The possibility of fixing the hand-made frame
- The space occupied by the table
Steering wheel
Lever located behind the ring is used for changing gears, such as the present and the expensive sports cars. There was no experimentation, it is a slightly modernized classic look of the wheel. You have the impression that someone has stolen the steering wheel of a real car.

Premium materials are used in the preparation of the wheel. The ring was covered with real leather, extremely precise and well-sewn. Metal parts are actually metal, not plastic painted in silver metallic.

The steering wheel is difficult, and with the help of massive clamp firmly attaches to the edge of the table.

Logitech is the model of force-feedback technology rose to a new level. Compared to its predecessor, the Logitech Driving Force Pro, there are many more neutral and more subtle but by no means inferior force-feedback. Long time for the wheel you can solidly tired muscles, but you can reduce the force-feedback strength to a level that you feel comfortable. Logitech G25 uses two engines to reactions in both directions was almost instantaneous.
Gearbox
Now you will see engraved sign for a six-speed and reverse, and switch which switches from a manual shifting mode to tiptronik bizina. As many as three different ways to change the speed, if you turn the levers behind the steering wheel rim. To insert in the reverse should be the lever to press down and then right and back.

On the metal part is located eight control buttons and a cursor to be able to more effectively manage the menus in the game.

Like the wheel, which clamps are attached to the steering wheel very good job. If that's not enough, there are threads for conventional screws. The third discipline is there to reduce the possibility of transmission capsized or disconnecting from the table.

Pedals are one of the most critical parts of the whole set, if they are not good the whole set fails. Innovation in comparison with its predecessor is a third pedal, the car also known as the clutch. Pedals and steering wheel, are made of genuine stainless steel that is durable and looks great.
Pedals frontal, semi-lateral, lateral and front
Base on which the pedals are very heavy and solid. Like the steering wheel and gear, and here are the thread which you can present to fix the base to say hand-made structure on which you have previously set up and tubs from a car. There are six coils of the bottom, which guarantees excellent pričvišćivanje for hand-made frame.
Steering wheel rim is the optimum size, but the problem is that what is covered. Namely, the ring of G25-ice coated the skin, which may sound atrkativno, but not too practical. Special rubber materials, commonly used for this purpose (and what a Driving Force Pro and GT wheels) are a better solution, both in terms of comfort the hand, and in the long run against sliding. Because the Logitech steering wheel pointed metal construction, eventually it could put only two buttons. On the one hand, it leaves an impression of tools meant to serious runners, while the other means more difficult to navigate through menus and settings, since the cursor keys and other gear in there. In addition, we do not consider that a substantial number of the steering wheel buttons make frivolous, given that the wheels of passenger cars on them, have more keys, while racing to conclude unnecessary.
G25 behind the huge metal ring has a pedal to change gears. The first thing that you win with these pedals is their size. In addition, the cold metal of the pedal, in a way, all four fingers on each hand holding constantly on call for timely and accurate shifting. The gear change pedal deserve praise.
The best part of the G25 gaming system without a doubt are the pedals. First of all, there is the clutch, if you want to drive with a 6-speed manual gearbox. However, the most important feature of these pedals (in addition to the metal) are the shock behind them that create resistance, which provide a realistic feel like a real car. So the lightest gas pedal, clutch moderately hard, while the brake pedal very hard. The feeling when driving, especially when braking is fantastic. What I must not forget is that the pedals are large enough, a base where there are huge and quite massive enough to stay firmly in place. However, we would like to have the clutch pedal and the throttle a little softer, given that during aggressive driving is almost guaranteed to fatigue both feet, both because of the hardness of the clutch for the left foot and right foot during the "heel-toes" techniques of međugasa.
The most interesting part of the G25-ice are full manual gear lever with a 6 speed and reverse. Although the construction of the handle itself is soft and krha not think that anything will break if you even remotely be careful. Lever is quite accurate and provides great entertainment. The good news is that the implementation of a 6-speed manual transmission in Gran Turismo 5 Prologue is practically perfect (and it is called by pressing the "triangle" when the race starts). You will not be able to shift gears without the clutch pressed, you can not kretene if you do the same, and so on.
Summary
Everything you touch is solid and very well mimic the impression that you have while driving a real car. Logitech did his best to get the price paid for a lot longer than expected. Quality materials, rugged construction and excellent force feedback guarantee that you will long to have fun with this gadget.
Free, we recommend that you buy the wheel if you like driving simulations, because it will appear almost nothing so well in the area of the wheel. Without thinking, the Logitech G25 wheel is the best ever made.
