The Elite should have an Elite steel one. You can probably get one as a spare though.

The one on your bike wont be the same. :oops: You will need to purchase one separately 8)

Most trainers will come with a skewer, you should ask where yours has gone!

The plastic one on your bike may work, but it won't be a good fit for the trainer, and you may risk breaking it as the plastic isn't designed for turbo trainer use.
