I mean, I spent nearly 9k on the sim set-up not including my pc or games. at 150$ cdn bucks i think its pretty cool. They should come longer and cut to fit so that they fit a wider variety of sizes of screens.

The one thing that pleased me the most is I think I can beat your lap times when you are chatting away not looking where you are going.

2 hours of tweaking 15 mins of racing is my every day and night. I just got the bezel kit a month ago and haven’t stopped tweaking and adjusting.

[IvanFamanni]

we don't follow you for your driving technique but because when I can't find something on simracing you are an absolute reference thank you very much

Elo Karl,
Just wanted to give you a lil shout out.. i like your no bs content, it seems like you have practical and honest opinions. I'm looking at upgrade options for my "rig" at the moment and your content has been more than useful... cheers mate :D

[heelandtoeknee]

Thanks for the video, Karl! 💪 I’m in full setup mode reg. my bezel free kit this weekend and your videos helped keeping my sanity! 😂 I really like to tinker with that kinda stuff too, it’s a huge part of my beloved hobby. You keep it up and stay safe! 👋

[Peter-DOC-Docter]

Totally the same for me, i love the tech and tinkering just as much as the actual usage...if you'd like a new tech and tinkering project, with amazing result, try building a virtual pinball machine, you can make it as realistic as the real thing ad then some, with fans, a shaker, lights etc. and since you have people over to play with it's great fun playing in multiplayer...

Thanks alot Karl for that great video(s). I was still thinking of getting them but the thing with the content creator got me, got triple AOC´s 32 inch 1500R curved and I think I will stay with the minimal bezel (for now) :D Have a nice one...

[worldofradiocontrol]

I do wish I had seen this video first. They're okay, not wow like I expected. They'll stay on for the simple fact, they weren't cheap. If I was a streamer, I could see them being handy as they do look great on camera.

[garyevanssimracing]

I'm the same, they are good but very hard to just get right and looking good

[TheRatlord]

If I already had them I would use them. But as a cost Vs benefit thing I probably wouldn't. But saying that if I had the set-up on the level of yours or Will's I probably would.

Hey Karl. Are you still racing in VR? Also is there going to be any more upcoming VR review videos? 🤓

[Bgski]

Excellent videos Karl, learning a lot. Recently switched to triple monitors (Asus VG32VQ1B). I’m completely satisfied without the bezel free strips, barely notice mine while racing, they’re so small anyway. But with 32” being the seemingly go to size wouldn’t you think Asus would consider making 32” sizes? Especially for their 1500r & 1800r monitors? Again, love the content!

[MurrMaan]

I am totally with you on the draw to sim racing being (partly at least) the technology and the fact that we are at the point where regular Karls and MurrMaans can put this altogether at home for a doable price! Deal hunting as well is another bonus to this hobby. Its a shame the Bezel kits are currently overpriced (200ish) for 2 short strips but with all the pros to being abke to race cars in your living room, there are cons. Cheers~

[ohgeez]

It's kinda cool, but the cost is ridiculous. You can get the same type of lens, I believe (Fresnel lens?), for the back of a motorhome, which is roughly 30cm x 20 cm, for around $15 US. These are a novel idea and they do have the clips on the ends, but I probably wouldn't pay more than maybe $40 US for a set.

[KuSQN]

For my I want everything to be consistency, So for me its just anoying. But I can maybe see why people might like them

[rustybob]

If you fancy selling these on let me know. I'd fancy giving them a go!

[TinoushGTR]

Lol mee too buddy. Love the tech and don't bother for online races. Don't need to proof anything lol. As bazel free kit, i love mine on 32inch curved monitors. Won't go back. I also have vr but then again I'll miss to see all the tech i have 😆

[biffisgreat]

Cool, was planing on them, but not to sure now, need 2 kits for 32s, and I don't like having the fencing, curbs, missed aligned, my brain almost takes the black bezels, as just another bar from the roll cages, reminds of my none retired days from racing

[yessirer]

i hated them at first because couldn't aligned them soo i took them off and couple days pass by and i was looking at fb post how ppl were loving them and i was like let me give it another shot, putting them on again and turn out that i had my monitor size wrong.. i own 32 in monitor so my widths is 28 in with the bezel. so i put that in to iracing and 28in with with bezel and with out bezel i put 28.5 and what do u know it was perfect. now i cant live with out them..
