NexusBrake Load Cell Handbrake – 100 kg, 2-Stage Resistance, Horizontal or Vertical

NexusBrake load cell handbrake: overview

The NexusBrake is a full-metal load cell handbrake for drift, rally, GT and track setups. A high-precision 100 kg load cell and a 2-stage resistance system recreate the increasing tension of a real handbrake.

Damping is adjustable and the rubber inserts are interchangeable, so you can tune resistance and elasticity. The lever switches between horizontal (road car) and vertical (drift/rally), and the 22 mm handle is removable.

It connects by USB-C to PC or a NexusDrive DD base, and mounts with M6 bolts (4 threaded and 6 through-holes).

Building a sim racing or flight setup

Base, rim and pedals. In a modular setup the wheel base holds the force feedback motor, the rim clips on with a quick release and the pedals connect to the base or by USB. Rims and pedals must suit your base, and the base decides which platforms are supported.

Direct drive. Direct drive bases attach the rim straight to the motor for the most detailed and strongest feedback. They need a rigid cockpit or a strong desk mount.

Load cell pedals. A load cell brake measures pressure, not travel, like a real car. It is the single upgrade that improves lap-time consistency the most.

Setup and use

1. Choose lever orientation.
2. Bolt to a handbrake mount with M6 bolts.
3. Connect USB-C and calibrate.

Care and maintenance

Check bolts regularly; swap rubber inserts to change feel.
