Article on the history of Thule roof racks

Thule’s name is synonymous with European quality, style and leading edge design. For over 75 years Thule have been the innovators, from their groundbreaking ski rack in 1962, to the world’s first roof box in 1977 and right up to the present with the ubiquitous 598 Proride roof mounted bike carrier. The Proride has carried more bikes, more miles than any other bike rack in the world.

From their design studios and testing labs in Sweden, to their state of the art European manufacturing facilities, Thule’s dedication to quality is second to none and is evidenced by their product’s ease of use and longevity. All backed by a five year warranty.

Thule focus on developing products that are safe, easy to use, environmentally friendly and allow you to bring the things you care about.
