CC, but the adapter never came in. Several calls later to CC, they discovered why my adapter that later came in didn’t fit the trainer: was meant for the older versions. We both made several calls to wahoo and updated each other of the answers. Their consolation line was: “well, no

If I were you next time, just post your questions here before you buy anything... it has saved me personally a lot of grief and money!
