Good morning everyone,

New member here. I live in chicago and have been getting back into cycling in the last couple years after taking a 10 year break. I recently bought a used 2018version Kickr Core that was barely used by the sellers wife. Looks brand new and all the connectivity works. but slight issue that I didn’t think about/wasn’t aware of…

It only came with the QR adapters and not the thru axel adapters which I need. I don’t mind buying a replacement but seems like Wahoo is out of stock and not much luck finding other sellers that have it.

This is what I need [https://www.wahoofitness.com/devices/indoor-cycling/parts-components/kickr-hub-adapter-kit-buy](https://www.wahoofitness.com/devices/indoor-cycling/parts-components/kickr-hub-adapter-kit-buy)

does anyone know if I can use the thru axel adapter that is for the 2014/2016 versions as shown here?

Hi! Did you end up resolving this issue? Asking because I have the opposite problem–the used kickr core trainer I bought came with the thru axle adapters but is missing the QR adapters, and I can’t seem to get the hub/axle kit from Wahoo either. (If not, any chance you still have your QR adapters?)
