Differences between THULE ProRide 598 and 591
The THULE ProRide 598 is the successor to the very popular ProRide 591. At first glance, you will hardly notice the difference between them. The new model is a little different from its predecessor and brings a better user experience thanks to innovations. Safety is very important in a roof rack, and the ProRide 598 takes it up several levels. In addition to the use of better materials, it has a softer lining and especially new jaws that are much better technically designedand completely encircle the bicycle frame, preventing it from falling out or reducing the risk of the bike being stolen.
Attachment of rims
Another difference is the mounting of the wheel rims on the rail. Compared to the 591, the newer 598 has a more comfortable system where the rim is attached to the rail by a strap and tightens comfortably with a ratchet. The result is much better rim stability in the rail than the older model.
THULE ProRide 598 is easy to work with
The last difference is the jaw tightening wheel. On the THULE ProRide 598, this wheel has been completely redesigned, making it more user-friendly and comfortable. Plus can only be tightened up to a certain pointand it can't go any further. Everyone will immediately know how to tighten the jaws and there is no risk of undertightening and possible frame falling out of the carrier or the opposite problem with too much tightening and subsequent possible frame damage, which will be especially appreciated by owners of carbon wheels.
