I have a friend that has one of these and has recently found that after a year of using it he now needs a subscription to cycleops to use his trainer.

He claims it won't work by itself, I don't know the specifics about that. Can someone enlighten me?

I noticed that perfpro and peripedal, both which can be purchased and do not need a subscription service, can be used with his hardware. Can someone comment on the software they like?

If there is something else I can have him look at please make a suggestion.

Thanks
