    FIRST! :D
    Small but importante note here, 397$ USD or 449$ CAD shipping and duties covered for all North American customers! We want to thank Barry for dedicating quality time for a deep dive testing with our newest entry-level cockpit, the ASR 1. It's definitely not built for top tier SimRacing equipement like the Simucube wheelbase, but as SRG demonstrates, it can handle pretty much anything you throw at it. We'll be around on the comment section if you guys have any questions that relate to what we do!

    At the end of the video he says it's $397 plus shipping, but if you live in North America shipping is free on all their products. And tax free as well if you're ordering from the United States. I've ordered a couple of times from them and there's never been any tax or shipping cost. Pretty unbeatable, out of the box and ready to go setup for $397 all-in if you ask me. You can get a rough equivalent for a little bit cheaper if you order the profiles yourself, but you won't get a pedal tray and wheel mount of that quality. Overall, if it's not rigid enough for you, you can add some stabilizing brackets to the wheel uprights for not too much extra money.

      @Beast Nicholls mine came with the side mount and the CSL DD spacers only. If you have not mounted the CSL DD yet, use four M6 16mm (with 1.0 thread spacing which matches the CSL DD anchors) bolts with it since each side mount is 6mm thick. I used 4 M8 spacers as well since the kit has so many, on the outside of the side mount to give the bolts a better anchor point since the side mount holes are a tad too large for them to anchor securely. My CSL DD certainly is very secure on there doing this

Their ASR6 performed as well as the P1. ASR is a no-brainer for anyone in North America not wanting to pay exorbitant shipping/duties fees on a rig without sacrificing quality. The ASR1 is also not advertised as a DD wheel, so the top-of-the-line equipment he's using in his review is not what's recommended to be used with the product to begin with, and it still handled it very well for the price point of the rig.

    I had ASR6 but moved to GT1 (a lighter rig). ASR uses very good quality channels, almost as good as Simlab. But the primary advantage of Simlab is the fasteners. Miles better than ASR in terms of quality fit and finishing. Simlab has a very tight tolerance level, which makes their products still top choice for any sim rig. Even the GT1-EVo can handle any DD very well, zero flex. The only advantage ASR has is the price. But if anyone can get a Simlab rig on black friday, no better deal than that.
