Thule ProRide 598 Black Bike Rack

The ProRide 598 is perhaps the most popular bike carrier in the world, with a swathe of features and proven reliability all combined with stupendous build quality this a truly outstanding bike carrier. 

Thule have built this carrier with ease of use in mind, including a tool-free design which allows users to easily switch the carrier from passenger to driver's side in a matter of minutes.

The frame holder is also beautifully designed. The soft pads of the claw spread pressure evenly on the frame and the extended lower jaw gives greater stability while loading and driving. The torque limiter dial provides the exact correct pressure to be placed on the frame, providing excellent stability while minimising the chances of damaging your frame's finish. The new design of the frame holder and wheel trays allows the bike to be automatically positioned when you secure the bike, although this seems like a small detail it will save you time fiddling with trays to line everything up while securing your bike.

Available in silver or black, and both models have a class leading 20kg bike load limit.

There is an additional accessory for Fat Bikes, the Thule 5981 FatBike adaptor and for those with carbon framed bikes Thule recommend the patented BA 984 frame adaptor for added protection of your bike's finish.

The instructions with the ProRide are comprehensive and provide you with all the information you need to install the carrier yourself. Please have a look at the instruction manual pdf at the bottom of this page to preview the process. The ProRide also comes almost completely pre-assembled, with no tools required, making the task of fitting even easier again. 

It also complies with ‘City Crash’ standards in case of an accident, you can watch this Thule City Crash testing video to see Thule's products being tested.

We are often asked if the carrier is safe and can hold a bike in emergency braking situations or other extreme circumstances. The answer is a definite yes, if you're in doubt we encourage you to watch this Thule Testing video as a great example of the rigorous testing that Thule does to ensure top quality and safety in their products.

2 x One-Key™ lock cylinder locks the bicycle to carrier and ProRide to your roof rack. You can key alike your Thule products by purchasing lock cores which can be found in our Spare Keys & Locks shop category.
