THULE, ProRide 958 also compatible with Fat Bike


The Swedish company presented the latest version of the renowned Thule ProRide 598, which is characterized by an updated look and new technical solutions that increase its functionality. Ease of use and reliability are the guidelines followed by the designers. In particular, work has been done to increase the ease of assembly - on both sides of the car roof - and of loading the bikes. Thule ProRide 598 is capable of carrying most types of bicycles up to a maximum weight of 20 kg. Thanks to a specific accessory, it is now also possible to transport fatbikes.

Safe and stable
Thule ProRide 958 offers maximum stability for loading and positioning the bike on the car. The new product is also equipped with an innovative system capable of fixing the bicycle by controlling the force that the closing clamp impresses on the frame. In fact, soft bearings cover the fixing caliper and adapt to the frame thus dissipating the pressure applied and reducing the possibility of damage, also guaranteeing correct assembly. Finally, the extension of the frame-locking clamp allows to avoid the bicycle falling during the loading phase.

Key Features:
• The frame locking pliers and the wheel rest channel are designed to automatically position the bike correctly during the fixing phase.
• Fast and easy - secure your bicycle thanks to the innovative fastening system capable of controlling the force that the caliper applies to the frame, the system also clearly signals the correct assembly of the bike.
• The pressure dissipates thanks to the large and soft reliefs on the caliper that adapt to the tubes of the bike frame, minimizing the risk of damage.
• Safe mounting - load the bike without dropping it thanks to the extension of the clamp locking to the side.
• Stable wheels fixed inside an elegantly designed system to guarantee maximum safety with quick release buckles with digonal closure.
• Easy to use / assemble can be placed on both sides of the roof.
• Maximum load capacity up to 20 kg.
• Possibility to lock (close) the bike to the bike carrier and the bike carrier to the door bars (locks included).
• T-track adapters (20 × 20 mm) are included to mount the bike carrier directly to the T-tracks of longitudinal bars such as Thule WingBar Edge, Thule WingBar, Thule SlideBar, and Thule AeroBar.
• Compliant with City Crash regulations.
