is it still worth buying a logitech g25 second hand?

[pull]

i have a chance to buy it for 50 american, it is the first model though with the clicky shifter, is it still worth? probably on its deathbed?

right now im using a logitech momo but its broken, no pedals.

I've had my G25 for nearly 8 years from new and it's still going strong, but it hasn't been abused and I won't let anyone use it that will. Plus you'll get a pedal set with a clutch. The manual shifter is very light but there are mods that aren't expensive to make it feel better.
So yes go for it. They sell for that much even if they dont work because people want them for spare parts.

50 bucks ain't ♥♥♥♥, go for it

Same as Useless Git I have had my G25 for years now, bought new. It is pretty bulletproof and is showing no signs of giving up yet and must be close to around 2000 hours of gameplay use. If there is a downside its that the FFB is not belt driven so isn't as good but as I have no experience with a belt driven wheel I can't really say for sure, do your own research there. But overall, for 50 dollars, go for it. It has a solid, well built feel to the peddles and wheel and, of course, has a clutch peddle as well.

I've a G27 and i'd love that my wheel would have a shifter like G25, with a switch to choose between h-shifter and/or sequential ( i can have a sequential shifter on my G27, but i need to use a "rubberband mod" ).

Other than that, G25 is exactly the same as G27, and for 50 bucks, i'd say go for it. Very strong and reliable wheel ( a bit noisy tough ).

For PC use and if its in decent condition yes, buy it.

It works fine. Although a while ago a lot of people had trouble, including me, because windows 10 updated the drivers and the wheel did not work properly. There should be solution on this forum somewhere.

G25 here also. Fighted with the annoying win10 update that gave small lag in steering, brake, throttle inputs. Finaly, after months of frustration the new win10 creators update fixed it. Its finaly gone. None of the fixes on any forum i looked into and tryed didnt help me.

I'd be all over a working G25 for 50 bucks.

if it isn't "on it's death-bed", then go for it.
Good choice for trying gaming on Linux, as well because it has enjoyed community-driven support for years. Other mainstream brands still do not.
Yet the usability problems on Win 10 for these older Logitech wheels do persist.

A T300/Tx / CSL-wheel would be smoother, quieter and stronger but you know the drill: you get what you pay for.

If you are still experiencing issues with your G25, on Windows 10, take a look here:

Most of the people fixed theirs wheels with the solution in the video so, try that one first. The solutions/workarounds in that thread are for G27, but it works for other wheels as well.
