Why Buy Heusinkveld?

The Legacy of Heusinkveld

Founded by Niels Heusinkveld & Svend van der Vlugt, two sim racers living in Groningen, Netherlands, they met online in 1999 while playing Grand Prix Legends; they founded their company after creating their first load cell pedal in 2005. Heusinkveld always prioritized realism and precision. Built with professional grade components, their pedals and handbrakes are designed for the most serious of enthusiasts, esports competitors and even race car drivers.

Load Cell Technology: Ultra Realistic Braking

The biggest differentiator for Heusinkveld pedals is their use of high-end load cell sensors. Unlike potentiometer pedals that measure travel distance, load cells measure applied force. This means that braking is measured with the pressure applied to the pedal, not position, just like in a real race car. This allows you to use more muscle memory to consistently brake in the same spot, allowing for more consistent lap times. Another difference with these pedals is that the braking modulation is far more precise, giving you total control of your braking.

For anyone chasing even a tenth of a second, this can be the difference between crossing the checkered flag first or second.

Customization and Adjustability

Heusinkveld pedals are built for complete customization and user personalization to make the pedals feel exactly how you want them to. You can adjust:

• Pedal stiffness: Mimic the feel of different cars (GT, F1, rally).
• Travel distance: Fine-tune how much movement you want.
• Angles and spacing: Ensure ergonomic comfort.
• Software calibration: Adjust curves and sensitivity to match your preferences.

This level of customization is why professional esports drivers and racing enthusiasts choose Heusinkveld.

Built to Last

Every Heusinkveld product is manufactured using industrial-grade materials like stainless steel and CNC-machined aluminum. They’re designed to handle hundreds of thousands of pedal presses without degradation.

For professionals and enthusiasts, this durability means peace of mind, you can push them lap after lap, and they’ll still perform flawlessly.

Why Heusinkveld Stands Above the Rest

• Better braking feel due to their load cell precision.
• Superior build quality that outlasts consumer focused pedals.

They are more expensive, but for anyone serious about sim racing, the investment is worthwhile.
