great brake feel4solid build3bad software1durability issues1

Had the Forte pedals and found them a great set if you like a racing-style brake that's hard to press with short travel; had to switch because they don't work on Linux.

positivegreat brake feel

After a year with the Forte pedals (a karter who likes stiff pedals), the brake trace is erratic when trailing off, which they put down to the pedal measuring travel rather than force.

negative

Previously had the Forte pedals and never got on with them: inconsistent because the load cell measures displacement, arms too tall and pedals too close for small feet; nicely made and reliable though.

negativesolid build

Had the Forte pedals for about a week and could not stand them.

negative

Their Asetek Forte pedals have been more consistent than upgraded Fanatec V3s.

positive

Wanted a heavy pedal with minimal travel and is happy with their Forte pedals; after lots of dialing in, braking feels more relaxed and accurate.

positivegreat brake feel

The throttle on their used Forte pedals broke down while the rest works, with no warranty since they were bought on eBay.

negativedurability issues

Has owned the Forte pedals for a month and finds them absolutely fabulous: unlike Heusinkveld, DC, Fanatec, Moza and Logitech G Pro, there's no sponginess at full braking; few setup options though.

positivegreat brake feel

Has used Asetek Forte pedals for two years with absolutely no issues; amazing, mostly metal and easily adjustable by hand.

positivesolid build

Bought the Forte pedals and returned them days later because they were far too stiff and heavy for their liking.

negative

Was unhappy with the Forte brake pedal for eight months, but after following setup tips it was instantly good; as a real race car driver they say the Forte does the job fine.

positivegreat brake feel

After 2-3 hours with the Forte pedals (coming from Fanatec load cell) they got no feeling for the brake and found it imprecise despite trying elastomers and preload; later returned them.

negative

Returned the Forte pedals: firmware updates failed until Thrustmaster drivers were removed, the signal stayed choppy and both pedals felt bad.

negativebad software

Isn't happy with their Asetek Forte pedals and is looking to replace them.

negative

Loves their Forte pedals, which felt natural after a few laps, though they note they don't suit everyone.

positive

Finds the Asetek Forte pedals stiff but really likes them, with lots of upgrade potential.

positive

Bought Asetek Forte pedals before VRS and found them really bad.

negative

Wants to sell their Asetek Forte pedals and base: finds the setup comfortable and good-looking in person, but the brake feel isn't their favourite.

mixed

Moved from Simsonn Plus X pedals to Asetek's Forte pedals and likes them, as they prefer a stiff pedal. Rates the Asetek kit as far better quality than the alternatives being considered.
