Quick answer
Choose the RS12 Simulator Seat if you want a dedicated racing seat with plush fabric and water resistance for a cockpit. Pick the PRO Series GEN 2.0 if you need an adjustable gaming chair that works for both sim racing and desk use.
Design and intended use
The RS12 is a dedicated racing seat built for a fixed cockpit position, while the PRO Series GEN 2.0 is a full-size gaming chair with tilt and recline mechanisms. This difference affects how each seat mounts and adjusts in your rig.
Material and durability trade-offs
The RS12 uses ultra-soft fabric upholstery that resists water, dirt, and oils—ideal for sweaty sim racing sessions. The PRO Series GEN 2.0 offers fabric or leather options, but lacks the same stain-resistant treatment. If you race often, the RS12 fabric will hold up better against spills.
Comfort and ergonomics
Both seats use cold-moulded foam cushioning and a steel frame. The PRO Series GEN 2.0 includes adjustable lumbar and headrest pillows, plus size options including XL. The RS12 does not list separate lumbar support, so its comfort relies on the bucket shape and foam contour.
Trade-offs at a glance
- Mounting style: The RS12 is a dedicated racing seat that bolts directly to a sim cockpit frame. The PRO Series GEN 2.0 uses a standard gas-lift base for desks or wheel stands, but can also be adapted to a cockpit with a separate bracket. Check your cockpit's seat mounting pattern before choosing.
- Adjustability vs. immersion: The PRO Series lets you recline, tilt, and adjust armrests for all-day comfort. The RS12 has a fixed bucket position that feels more immersive for racing but less versatile for other tasks.
- Material choice: RS12 fabric is treated to resist liquids and stains. PRO Series GEN 2.0 gives you a fabric or leather option but without the same protective coating. If you race in a hot or humid room, the RS12 fabric will stay fresher longer.
