Thule 598 ProRide Locking Upright Cycle Carrier

The Thule 598 ProRide Locking Upright Cycle Carrier is a fast and secure roof carrier for one bike. Its revised frame clamp has a long lower jaw that holds the bike while you fit the wheel straps. A torque limiter helps you apply the right force, while soft pads protect the frame.

Key Features and Benefits:

• Revised Frame Clamp: The long lower jaw holds the bike as the clamp closes. This helps stop it from falling while you fit the wheel straps.
• Torque Limiter Dial: The dial controls how much force goes into the bike frame. It gives a clear signal when the clamp is tight enough. This helps protect light and carbon frames from excess pressure.
• Soft Claw Pads: Deep, flexible pads mould to the shape of the frame tube. They spread pressure over a wide area. This gives a firm grip and helps reduce marks or damage.
• Self-Positioning Holder: The frame holder and wheel tray guide the bike into place as you secure it. You spend less time holding and adjusting the bike during loading.
• Diagonal Wheel Straps: Each strap crosses the wheel at an angle for more contact. Ratchet buckles let you tighten each strap in small steps. This keeps the wheels firm and makes setup quick.
• Tool-Free Side Change: Move the clamp arm from one side of the carrier to the other without tools. This lets you load the bike from the left or right side of the vehicle.
• Two Included Locks: One lock secures the bike to the carrier. The other secures the carrier to the roof bars. This helps reduce the risk of theft when the vehicle is parked.
• Pre-Assembled Roof Bar Fit: The carrier comes assembled and fits 20 x 20mm T-tracks. It fits several Thule bars, while 24 x 30mm tracks and SquareBar Evo need separate adaptors.
• Broad Bike Fit: The carrier holds round tubes from 22 to 80mm and oval tubes up to 80 x 100mm. It also fits 16 to 32-inch wheels, tyres up to 3 inches wide and wheelbases up to 1235mm.
• Tested Design and Five-Year Cover: The carrier is City Crash tested and TÜV-GS approved. Thule provides a two-year guarantee and a three-year extension after product registration.

The upright design keeps the rear of the vehicle clear and leaves both wheels on the bike. Its 20kg load limit and wide size range suit many road, hybrid and mountain bikes. This makes it a practical choice for regular trips and simple loading.

Choose the Thule 598 ProRide for quick setup, controlled clamping and lockable bike transport. Its stable frame and wheel support give you a clear and simple loading process.
