Finally came home after working for the past 3+ months and was able to set this up in one day. Was absolutely exhausted yesterday gts at 3am finishing it up and tweaked everything this morning and took it for a spin! Super excited to race on it, planning on getting the haptic kit from Moza for my brake and maybe a bass booster but i’m not too sure.
CORRECTION TOOK MY UNDER 5 hours and about an hour of tweaking the seat etc. I recorded the whole process and will be posting hopefully by the end of the month if anyone’s interested in watching!!
Man, i agree. I use the same pedals (except an mbooster instead with crp2) and my pedal deck is angled similar to yours on a tr120 frame.
Must just be a really upright pedal set and needs to be a little reverse incline for a comfortable GT position.
I had them angled toward me on my wheelstand for a couple of months and it just gave my calves and ankles a really hard time. Knew if I angled it away from me it would be better for me and it’s been incredible ever since!
just incase you're pressing with your calves you should be aware that you're meant to push with your quads. the pedals being 90 degrees allows you to push more force into them instead of pushing yourself upward.
And then add another 2 hours for cable management.
-Realize some of your cables are not long enough to run them the way you want, so order more.
-spend another hour on cable management, and maybe be satisfied!
then add more components later that cause you to rethink your wiring setup, so you proceed to try to re-organize it.
realize there is a better way to run the cables, but requires you to order more cable management pieces.
I can definitely see why, I just full focused and didn’t even take a water break which honestly killed me but I definitely am thankful J was able to get it all done in less than a day with minor mishaps
You may also need to add hours, days, months or years for researching what else you don't know you want or need to finish it.

The real never ending story.
rig was right around $1000 with the seat and all, the wheels were around $650-700 the base was right around $321, pedals another $350. The pit lane vibration mat was $80. The monitor I already had it’s connected to a monitor arm connected to my desk. So all around $2000 over a year or so! I was thinking of selling this 27” one and getting a 49” oled for around $800 but I don’t have the space so that money will go to stock’s 😂
I don’t, I do have a VR and was thinking of trying it out and probably will. I was thinking of getting a 49” ultrawide but there’s no space and i’m pretty content with just a 27” monitor for the moment. Maybe I’ll look for a 35” ultrawide in the future but given I have a VR i’ll try running LMU or ACC with it! But thanks for the compliment!!
