Steering wheel knob for your car

A brodie (or suicide) knob makes driving vehicles without power steering easier. It is more comfortable to manoeuvre in confined spaces with it and it significantly reduces the strain on the arms in traffic jams.

Brodie knobs: 6 key factors

1. These components can be attached to the steering wheel with a narrow or wide clamp. The latter one ensures a more secure fix due to a larger contact area.
2. To prevent the device from slipping and to protect the wheel against scratches, you should use special rubber spacers to place under the clamp. As a rule, they come together with the accessory.
3. It is recommended to use the device when driving not faster than 40 kph. When accelerating and sharply turning the steering wheel, the risk of finger and wrist injuries increases.
4. You need special skills to use the accessory safely and comfortably. That’s why you need to have some practice performing the manoeuvres in empty places and only after that start driving along public roads.
5. Devices with a built-in bearing can turn around their axis and are more comfortable to use.
6. After mounting the accessory, you must make sure that it doesn’t impede the driving.
