No podium hub

[RedBull48]

Hey all,

I was planning on buying a podium hub and new round rim from fanatec however I notice the podium hub is no longer showing up on their website? Am I being dumb and missing it somewhere? Or does anyone know of an updated model coming out with the new QR? The BMW GT wheel is supposed to be out within the next month or so, so perhaps it's related. Any info would be appreciated.

Best of luck with whichever Fanatec hub you wind up with.

I admit I was in a bit of a frenzy today after discovering the Podium Hub was not available. I did a quick search of the Sim Hardware forum here, but didn't see your post.

This is now back in stock on the U.S. site.

And back in the EU site as well. No change apparently, the QR seems already upgradable so it will probably be possible to upgrade it in the future if needed.

I was really expecting them to reveal a V2 model of the podium hub as they have to seemingly every other product with a slightly smaller profile. Perhaps similar to the SRM emulator. I guess what could prohibit that is the shifter mounts however.
