Fanatec ClubSport Shifter Carbon Knobs Kit

Matte carbon H-pattern and sequential knobs with weighted metal cores for ClubSport shifters

Description

The Fanatec ClubSport Shifter Carbon Knobs Kit is a pair of matte carbon fibre gear knobs for Fanatec's ClubSport shifters: one round H-pattern knob and one sequential (SQ) knob.

Weight. Both knobs have weighted metal cores: the round knob weighs 220 g and the SQ knob 141 g. The heavier round knob suits H-pattern shifting.

Shape. The SQ knob is significantly shorter and smaller in diameter than the standard metal SQ knob, which Fanatec says also makes it pleasant for H-pattern use; its compact shape allows quicker hand movements.

Fit. Standard automotive M12x1.5 thread. Compatible with the ClubSport Shifter, ClubSport Shifter V1.5, ClubSport Shifter SQ, ClubSport Shifter SQ V1.5 and the SQ V1.5 Limited Edition 2019.

Driving style

The ClubSport Shifter Carbon Knobs Kit is for ClubSport Shifter SQ owners who want a more premium look and feel. The heavy round knob gives a satisfying click into each gear for H-pattern driving in classic cars, touring cars and drifting in Assetto Corsa or rally in EA SPORTS WRC, while the compact sequential knob suits fast upshifts in GT, rally and touring cars and reduces hand fatigue in long stints, according to Fanatec.

Best for ClubSport shifter owners who want an aesthetic and tactile upgrade; less suited for buyers looking for a functional improvement, since the shifter mechanism is unchanged.

Frequently asked questions

Which shifters are compatible with the Carbon Knobs Kit?

Fanatec lists the ClubSport Shifter, ClubSport Shifter V1.5, ClubSport Shifter SQ, ClubSport Shifter SQ V1.5 and the SQ V1.5 Limited Edition 2019. The knobs use the standard automotive M12x1.5 thread, so they may fit other shifters with the same thread.

What is the difference between the two carbon knobs?

The round knob is heavier (220 g) and designed for H-pattern shifting with a satisfying click into gear. The SQ knob (141 g) is shorter and slimmer, allowing quicker hand movements and less fatigue in long stints, and it also works for H-pattern.

How do the carbon knobs compare with the stock ClubSport knobs?

The carbon SQ knob is significantly shorter and smaller in diameter than the standard metal SQ knob. Both carbon knobs keep weighted metal cores and add a matte carbon finish with better grip; the shifter mechanism itself is unchanged.

Is the Carbon Knobs Kit worth it?

It costs $79.99 in the US and €89.95 in the EU for two knobs. It is a look-and-feel upgrade rather than a performance change, so its value depends on how much you care about the tactile finish.

Does it need any software?

No. The knobs simply screw on; the shifter is configured in the Fanatec App.
