Wireless Wheel (SWW)
Which wheels are compatible with Simucube Wireless Wheel system?
Simucube Wireless Wheel System uses bespoke transmitter module, and is only compatible with wheels designed to use it. These wheels are becoming available through many of our distributors.
Do SWW support analog inputs for eg clutch paddles?
Not at this point due to the high power consumption it would cause. But let's see what future brings...
Do SWW support digital outputs for my wheel LEDs?
Not at this point due to the high power consumption. But let's see what future brings...
How is SWW powered?
SWW has ultra low power electronics and is powered by a single cell battery. In daily hard-core use the estimated life time of single lithium battery is above 5 years. User will get indication of low battery a long time before it's critical to be replaced.
What kind of inputs do SWW have?
SWW supports:
Quick Release (SRQ)
Which wheels are compatible with Simucube Quick Release?
SQR is widely used in multiple different wheel manufacturers that are sold by many of our distributors. SQR comes with following mounting options: 50.8 mm bolt pattern (front side of wheel mounting), 70 mm bolt pattern (front & back side mouning).
Are there serviceable parts in SQR?
Practically the only wearing parts are the spring loaded "ball plungers" in the wheel base side of SQR. These are designed to last thousands of operations without losing their grip. However if they wear out, they can be replaced with original part from KIPP (part nr KIPP K0321.208).
Will there be any play, backlash or flex?
SQR has been engineered to operate completely backlash & play free under rapidly changing peak torques of Direct Drive. Due to clever self-tightening wedge design, the rigidity is practically no different from a solid shaft.
Simucube 1
Will Simucube 1 have the same updates as Simucube 2?
Development will continue for SC1 but SC2 will take priority. Some features will be added to SC1 but it may take some time after releasing them to SC2. SC1 has older hardware that will not support all new features.
Will you continue to sell Simucube 1?
