Hi, I'm anxiously awaiting my first power meter and wondered if I should be concerned with damaging the hub while on the trainer this winter. It is a 07 power-tap on a zipp 303. I only ask because I have been advised to use a different skewer than my "race" skewer while riding the trainer in the past. Thanks

I suspect this has more to do with not damaging your own skewer in the clamps used by your trainer. Some trainers provide a skewer with ends specifically shaped to fit their trainer clamps. Your hub will be fine.

I'd also consider getting one of the Continental Indoor Trainer tyres if the bike is going to stay in the trainer.
