In the box: 130 mm quick-release, 135 mm quick-release and 12 × 142 mm. Sold separately: 12 × 148 mm Boost, 12 × 135 mm and 10 × 135 mm — confirm the exact part for your bike.

Yes — the Elite Direto XR supports virtual shifting, but the hardware is a separate purchase: a Zwift Cog replaces the cassette and a Zwift Click or Play does the shifting. Virtual shifting arrived in a firmware update, so it works only once the trainer is updated — on the firmware it shipped with, a Zwift Click does nothing and the Cog stays in one gear.
