Hey Brian,

I like my TSW pedals, they're easy to maintain and give a good feel
(esp. with the "squash ball brake" modification ;-)

cheers uwe

Don't post **** when you don't know dick. I've been using ECCI gear since
you were sucking a pacifier. My 6000 pedals have exactly one adjustment:
the locking shaft around each pot.

Doesnt it pretty much sum up the quality of the pedals that after you spend
all that money you still need to modify them urself with a squash ball???
People do that with ****ty momo pedals, you shouldnt need to do that with
proper supposed top of the line pedals.

The quality of the pedals is excellent. Some people don't like that
"squash ball mod" or its feel on the brake pedal so there's no reason
to include it in the version that Thomas ships ;-)

Cheers,

Thanks for the posts. I am still on the fence as to which ones to get......
The ecci pedals would look real nice with my steering wheel but are going to
cost me $80 if I do not get the brake modulator thingy. I have to add on $70
to the cost of the tsw pedals because I would need a usb adapter. I just am
unsure as to whether the extra $80 is worth it or not. I could use that
money somewhere else....

Its their new pedal modulation system called PMB2 which helps give you the
extra realistic brake pressure feel.
I would get it for sure because it makes to sense to spend all this money
just to skimp on something important.

Anyone want to comment on the PMB braking unit? It will be hard for me to
afford the pedals and that too.
