Fanatec CSL Elite Pedals — Mid-Tier Three-Pedal Set with Load Cell Brake Compatibility
The Fanatec CSL Elite Pedals deliver a major step up from entry-level pedals with full-metal construction and the ability to add a load cell brake upgrade. Designed for sim racers who want reliable, adjustable performance without the price of flagship hardware, the CSL Elite Pedals give you three pedals — throttle, brake, and clutch — with tuning options that let you grow your setup as your skills advance.
Why choose the CSL Elite Pedals?
- Three-pedal set with throttle, brake, and clutch for authentic heel-and-toe and manual-transmission sim racing.
- Full-metal pedal arms and base plate provide rigidity and durability under heavy braking.
- Load cell brake ready — upgrade with the CSL Elite Load Cell Kit for pressure-based braking that matches real race cars.
- Tunable throttle and clutch via adjustable springs and rubber elastomer bumpers.
- Adjustable pedal faces and heel rest let you set pedal spacing and angle for your preferred driving position.
- Broad ecosystem compatibility — works with Fanatec CSL, CSL Elite, ClubSport, and Podium wheel bases via RJ12, or direct USB.
The sweet spot for sim racers leveling up
If you started on CSL Pedals and are ready for a meaningful upgrade — or you want three pedals with the option to add a load cell brake later — the CSL Elite Pedals hit the performance and value sweet spot. Solid construction, adjustable geometry, and upgrade paths make this a smart mid-tier choice for iRacing, Assetto Corsa Competizione, F1, rFactor 2, and Le Mans Ultimate.
