Description

The Thule UpRide is a universal roof bike rack designed for cyclists who prioritize frame protection. This Thule rooftop bike rack securely holds your bike by the front wheel using a robust hook, ensuring absolutely no bike frame contact. This makes it an excellent choice for carbon frames or bikes with unconventional designs, rear suspension, or bottle cages. Its versatile design fits most 20–29” wheel bicycles with tires up to 3" wide (or 5" with a fat bike adapter, sold separately). Simple to switch between sides of your vehicle and featuring a ratcheting wheel strap for the rear wheel, the Thule UpRide offers secure, easy, and frame-safe transport on your Thule roof rack.

FAQ

Q: Is it better to remove my front wheel or leave it on for a roof bike rack?
A: This comes down to your preference, the type of bikes you're carrying, and if you have any height restrictions. But for the most part if you're not riding a super fancy high-end road race bike then leaving your front tire on is easier, and more convenient.
Q: Are traditional tools required to install this?
A: No! Any tools required for installing this rack product come included in the box!
Q: How does the Thule UpRide hold the bike without touching the frame?
A: The UpRide uses a unique hook mechanism that securely grabs and holds the bike's front wheel. Combined with a ratcheting strap for the rear wheel, the bike is held firmly in place with no contact on the frame itself.
Q: Is the Thule UpRide suitable for carbon frame bikes?
A: Yes, absolutely. Because it secures the bike by the wheels only and makes no frame contact, it is perfectly safe for bikes with sensitive carbon frames.
Q: What bike sizes and tire widths can this Thule roof bike rack accommodate?
A: The Thule UpRide fits most bicycles with wheel sizes from 20 inches to 29 inches. It handles tire widths up to 3 inches as standard. For fat bikes with tires up to 5 inches wide, you can use the Thule UpRide Fatbike Adapter (sold separately). The maximum bike weight is 44 lbs (20 kg).
Q: Can I mount the Thule UpRide on either side of my car?
A: Yes, the Thule bike carrier features a simple interface that allows you to easily reconfigure it for mounting on either the driver's or passenger's side of your vehicle.
Q: Is the bike locked to the rack?
A: The Thule UpRide includes an integrated cable lock to secure your bike to the rack. You can also purchase separate Thule One-Key System locks to lock the bike rack itself to your vehicle's Thule roof rack crossbars for added security.
