GT Omega Apex Cockpit
An enthusiast-tier tube-steel cockpit that ships with a seat and supports both front and bottom wheel mounting, making it a credible budget rig for belt-drive and entry direct drive up to roughly 8 Nm. The included seat is a real cost saver for first builds. Skip it if you're running DD above ~8 Nm or load-cell pedals beyond ~70 kg, where steel tube flex shows and an aluminum-profile frame is the right step up.
