Thule 599 UpRide Cycle Carrier
A secure, upright roof-mounted bike carrier with zero frame contact, the Thule 599 UpRide protects carbon frames and fits a wide range of bike styles with fast, tool-free loading.
Thule 599 UpRide Cycle Carrier
The Thule 599 UpRide is a universal upright roof bike carrier designed for cyclists who want maximum frame protection and a fast, hassle-free loading experience. With no frame contact at all, the front-wheel hook system keeps your bike secure while safeguarding delicate or unique frame designs — making it ideal for carbon bikes, full-suspension MTBs, and bikes with bottle cages or non-traditional geometries.
The UpRide’s versatile design accommodates 20–29" wheel bikes with tyres up to 3" wide (and up to 5" using the optional Thule Fatbike Adapter). Loading is intuitive: the front wheel is clamped by the ratcheting hook, while the rear wheel is secured quickly with the adjustable wheel strap. The carrier locks your bike to the rack and the rack to your roof bars for complete peace of mind.
Compatible with most roof rack systems and easily switched from one side of the vehicle to the other, the UpRide delivers secure, confident bike transport without ever touching the frame.
