ロックに慣れれば問題無し！　SUV車で車高が少し高いので気になり未舗装路はサンルーフ開けてたまに見ています

Je recommande. Un peu chère mais c'est du Thule. Construction solide, installation plutôt facile, et une fois qu'on a bien compris comment mettre le vélo correctement dessus, c'est parfait. Je précise que mon vtt est un Rockrider de chez décat', tout suspendu, grande taille avec des pneus un peu large; et ça tient sans problème.

İndirimde diye aldım. Ön tekerden tutuyor diye endişelenmiştim ama endişelenecek bir durum yokmuş sadece alışmam gerekti. Bisikleti hızlıca takıp alabiliyorsunuz. Ben yol bisikletinde kullanıyorum sorun yaşamadım. Bu bisikletliği kullanırken teker ölçüsü ayarına ve ön tekeri kilitlerken klik sesine dikkat etmek lazım. Ek olarak klips sesini duymak için bazen fazla güç gerekiyor o zaman wd40 silikon spreyle ufak bir yağlama yetiyor. O da uzun zaman gidiyor

I bought this to replace an existing Thule Proride when I bought a new mountain bike with a fatter bottom bracket that wouldn’t fit in the jaws of the clamp. Fitting it was very easy because it slotted straight in where the old one came out on exactly the same mounting brackets. I remember fitting the old Proride was very fiddly because I had to adjust the position of the roof bars to get the brackets of the rack in just the right place so that the wheel straps didn’t conflict. However, this new rack would have been easier because there is only one wheel strap, and it is diagonal, so should be more flexible with positioning.Front mudguards are ok so long as they are short. The arms need to grip the tyre of the front wheel and if a mudguard is in the way won’t hold it without causing damage. The tiny mudguards that most mountain bikers use are fine. I have a mid-sized mudguard which is ok, but only just. If it had been a problem I would have cut an inch or two off the mudguard with a jigsaw and re-shaped the end with a heat gun.Once mounted on the rack the bike feels very secure, much more so than on the old proride where there was always a worry that the frame could slip out of the jaws, (this happened once whilst driving and I still have a deep scratch in the roof of my car where the pedal went into it).. The two swing arms are easily adjusted to the size of your wheel. It takes a couple of minutes to figure out which arm goes where; there’s a label on the rearmost one telling you to raise it first. Once you’ve made sense of that it’s easy to get the first arm in place, lift the bike up, raise the second arm, push it until it goes click, fasten the rear wheel strap and you are good to go. The two arms form a cross-shaped cage around the front wheel, so it can’t slip out. There is no feeling that the bike could come out of the rack. The bike is only going to come away if the forces through the brackets into the roof bars are excessive: that would require a combination of a very heavy bike with some violent driving. Thule recommend sticking to a maximum of 70mph. If you like to drive faster then probably you’d be better off putting the bike inside the car.It is rated up to a maximum of 20kg, which rules out many e-bikes. Anything over that weight would be a struggle to lift up and place on the rack anyway; my e-mountain bike is 18kg which is within my comfort zone, but anyone contemplating getting one of these will want to be sure they can lift and position the bike without risk of dropping it.Locking is interesting: the old proride had a lock on the swing arm which was part of the routine and so got used every time. This one doesn’t have that, instead providing a cable which pulls out of the tail end of the rack, loops around the back wheel and then can be locked. This is an extra thing to do and so far I haven’t bothered with it. This does make you vulnerable to an opportunist thief if you were to leave it unattended for a couple of minutes. The locks on this and the proride are flimsy and wouldn’t stop a determined thief with wire cutters but are better than nothing.In summary, it works well for me and my bike, and I would recommend it. The price is quite high, but it is a good quality product. My old proride was left in place exposed to the elements for years and never showed any sign of deterioration, so I would expect the same from this one.

Lieferung erfolgte schnell. Verpackung wirkte so als wäre sie schonmal geöffnet gewesen, das war aber nicht der Fall, nix hat gefehlt. Die Verpackung wurde wohl für den Vesand mit Paketband nachträglich "stabilisiert". Aufbau uns Montage problemlos, wie von Thule erwartet ein perfektes Produkt, das Fahrrad ist stabil befestigt ohne dass Schäden am Karbon zu befürchten sind. Träger und Grundträger sind serienmäßig abschließbar, das Fahrrad wird mit einem Kabel an den Träger angeschlossen. Achtung auf Ladehöhe: bei heute üblichen SUV, aber auch bei z. B. Passat oder Golf+ sind die Dächer so hoch, dass man das Fahrrad (29") vom Straßenniveau aus nicht aufladen kann, trotz Körpergröße von 182 cm. Das geht nur, wenn man Dirk heisst. Ich habe mir dazu noch für 50.- eine stabile faltbare 30 cm Trittstufe für Wohnmobile besorgt. Damit ist die Beladung problemlos und die Stufe nimmt nicht viel Platz im Auto weg.
