Custom G25 for sale
I need to sell my custom Logitech G25. I've enjoyed the hell out of it but I don't have the time for LFS anymore and I need the money for other things (namely, a brand-new, hungry, screaming babby).

The wheel itself is carbon fiber with hand-stitched leather grips. The display and button controller is a Leo Bodnar SLI-PRO. The SLI-PRO drives all the buttons and dials you see on the wheel. The paddles are the original G25 paddles (slightly modified to make room for the electronics). The original G25 thumb buttons are gone. All the G25 internals are original. The wheel works with LFS and a pile of other sims (RFactor, iRacing, etc.). You can find a full list of the supported sims at EK Sim Racing, the software provider for the display: http://www.eksimracing.com/

Here are some pictures:

In the first picture, the topmost left and right dials are a decrement/increment control (two buttons, essentially) and the display brightness control, respectively. The two leftmost dials (the ones with letters) control the display modes, and all the others can be mapped to keys to do whatever you want. The second picture shows the USB connector for the display and wheel buttons. The third picture shows the back of the wheel. The electronics look a bit chaotic, but it's all really pretty tidy and safely out of the way. Finally, the fourth picture shows a close-up of the display.

Here's a YouTube video showing me going through the display modes (taken before I labeled the dials) and a video of me using the wheel.

The wheel is in great shape. I've tested it extensively and it works very, very well. It has no problems and I don't foresee it having any in the near future. The wheel is already attached to a G25 and comes with the shifter unit and pedals. I swapped the brake pedal for a load cell, so you get that too (and I'll include the original brake parts).

My price is 800 USD, shipping not included. I'd prefer to ship only to US and Canada, but if you're willing to shell out big bucks for shipping, I won't balk at shipping internationally. Considering how much time and effort I put into the wheel and the cost of the components, this is a hell of a deal for a great piece.

PM me if you're interested!
Wow dude, awesome wheel.
If only I hadn't just purchased a new Macbook Pro today...
If only I didn't own a Fanatec...


I still wouldn't get it. Isn't it a little much? I'd rather save for a FREX or maybe two Fanatecs...

Considering a FREX wheel alone, no shifter, no pedals, no buttons, and especially no display, just a steering wheel and flappy paddles costs over two grand.... no?
Too bad that the internals are the same.
The G25 could use a bit spiced up force feedback TBH.

Even with all the electronics, the carbon wheel is a lot lighter than the stock wheel. The force is much stronger with this one.
Looks great m8! Awesome job! The one who's going to buy it is going to be one lucky bastard!

Yeah ok, but not if you're actually holding it.

That's missing the point, the same force in the force feedback will have more of a felt effect since the mass that it's trying to move/rotate is smaller. What tmehlinger is trying to say is that the force you feel is stronger than a regular G25 without upgrading the internals.
