The Asetek Forte Formula Button Box is a formula-style sim racing wheel with 144 programmable inputs and 49 aRGB LEDs, compatible with PC, with configurable grips and paddles so you can build the wheel your way.
Designed and made in Denmark, it uses an injection-moulded carbon fibre composite chassis with a metal spider interface and an aluminium face plate for a stiff, non-flexing wheel. As a button box, you choose the grip (XL, LMP or Suede) or the no-grip option, and the number of paddles. Everything is calibrated in RaceHub.
