Simucube Black Friday 2026. 30% off, capped at 200 units.

Simucube did something in 2025 that nobody else did: a 30% discount capped at 200 units. That's not a week-long sale you can think about over the weekend. If that structure repeats in 2026, being there on day one is the whole game.

This is buying guidance, not a price feed. Figures marked 2025 are what each brand actually charged last Black Friday — I log them so a 2026 offer can be judged against something real. Some links here are affiliate links: if you buy through them I earn a commission at no extra cost to you, and it does not change what I recommend.

On a Simucube 3 Pro at around $1,599, 30% is roughly $480 off. That's the largest absolute saving available on any wheelbase I track, which is exactly why the units went.

Why I pay attention to this one

I run a Simucube 3 Pro on my own rig. That's not an endorsement of the price — it's expensive, and for most people a $600 direct drive does everything they actually need. But at the top end the difference is real: the detail resolution and the way it handles rapid direction changes are a step beyond what the mid-tier does.

If you're buying at this level, the reviews worth reading are the Simucube 2 Ultimate, the ActivePedal Pro and the ActivePedal Pro vs Ultimate comparison. The Valo GT23 covers the wheel side.

One thing to budget for: the Link Hub. It's around €180 and it isn't optional for most setups. Factor it in before you compare headline prices against other brands.

What I expect in 2026

  • Timing: Black Friday week, closing in the first days of December.
  • Depth: potentially 30% again, but expect a unit cap or another form of limit.
  • Strategy: this is the one brand where you should decide before the sale opens. Know which base you want and what you'll pay, so you can act immediately rather than researching while the allocation runs out.
  • Accessories: the ActivePedal line is where a lot of the money goes in this ecosystem. Watch whether it's included.

Is Simucube worth it at 30% off?

At $1,100–1,200 for a Simucube 3 Pro, it's competing directly with undiscounted mid-tier flagships rather than sitting in its own bracket. That's a genuinely different proposition, and it's the one scenario where I'd tell someone to stretch.

Below that, be honest about whether you'll feel the difference. On a rig that flexes, through a wheel that isn't up to it, you won't.

Common questions

Does Simucube do Black Friday deals?

Yes. In 2025 Simucube offered 30% off, limited to the first 200 units, running to 2 December.

How much is a Simucube 3 Pro?

Around $1,599 before tax, plus roughly €180 for the required Link Hub. At a 30% Black Friday discount that lands near $1,100.

Is Simucube worth it over a mid-range direct drive?

At full price, only if you're already running a rigid rig and a good wheel — otherwise the detail it delivers is lost before it reaches you. Discounted to around $1,100 it competes directly with undiscounted mid-tier flagships, which is a much stronger case.
