Heusinkveld MagShift - GT-style sequential shifter with magnetic shift system

Patented magnetic shift system

The compact base houses a magnetic shift mechanism that recreates the feel of an actual gear clicking into place - a sharp, satisfying clunk on every up- and downshift. Because magnets replace mechanical wear parts and shifts are detected by opto-electronic sensors, the feel stays consistent over time: the system is tested for 1 million duty cycles.

3-way adjustable shift force

The overall force, upshift and downshift are all set individually - for example a firm upshift with a soft downshift to match a specific car. The peak shift force adjusts anywhere between 4.5 and 11 kg; at the firmest setting the lever demands the same effort as a sequential shifter in a real race car.

Heusinkveld MagShift - integrated mini button box detail

Integrated mini button box

Three tactile buttons sit in the base, placed within reach without interfering with shifting - assign lights, wipers, the pit limiter, a handbrake or launch control. With the free SmartControl software the lever and buttons expand to 10 customizable outputs: each input gets a primary and secondary function triggered by how long you press, saved into profiles. SmartControl Live then switches profiles while you drive - for example reversing the shift direction at the touch of a button.

Heusinkveld MagShift - U-shaped mounting bracket adjustment options

Mounting made easy

The included U-shaped bracket attaches to an aluminium profile with just two bolts and takes up a single profile slot. The bracket's hole pattern handles the fine-tuning: rotate it for yaw, pick one of three horizontal rows for height, or use a diagonal combination of holes to tilt the shifter towards you.
