tbf that video is made by a seller of nardi wheels that cost £200 and are being copied for £30. I reckon they heated it up before the vid.

I bought a £50 no name steering wheel off ebay and it doesn't flex at all.

My mini already had a removable steering wheel so I dunno if that,s the right boss.

good point they could easily have done that, but there's also one of a caterham going round the old hairpin at donington and it comes off in his hands. can't remember if it snapped or the boss came off, but that probably definitely shouldn't happen
