Thule Roof Mounting Carrier - 591

Since 2001, over 90,000 cyclist's have joined Cycling Forums to discuss topics from general cycling to equipment, training, racing and travel or vacation destinations (especially in europe during the tour de france). We also feature an great deals in our online store, 100's of articles, classifieds and product reviews.

I'm thinking of investing in a couple of rooftop carriers - does anybody
have experience with the Thule 591? In particular, one of my bikes is a
2004 specialized enduro, would there be any fit problems there?

Graham,

Can't comment on your Specialized but we have got a couple of 591's
without any problem whatsoever.

Boght them from The Roof Box Company.

I haven't used the 591's, but I'll add my recommendation for
http://www.roofbox.co.uk/ (both on price and service) and for Thule
(fantastic customer service, sending replacement straps free of charge
after DW tried to drive under too low a barrier with two unicycles on
the roof. Although to be fair to DW, we knew that the barrier had been
high enough the year before and we didn't know it had been replaced).

Thanks guys - yes, I'll use roofbox. I bought roof bars and box from
them last year and agree with recommendation.
