Thule 988 Bike Protector | Ultimate Frame Protection for Travel & Storage
Ensure your bikes arrive at their destination in pristine, scratch-free condition with the Thule 988 Bike Protector. This essential accessory is the definitive solution for any cyclist who transports multiple bikes. Hit the road with confidence, knowing your valuable road bikes, mountain bikes, or e-bikes are shielded from the bumps, vibrations, and jostling of travel. The Thule 988 acts as a crucial barrier, preventing bikes from bumping and rubbing against each other on your carrier, effectively protecting delicate frames, custom paint jobs, and sensitive components from costly damage like scratches, scuffs, and dents.
Eliminate Damage and Preserve Your Bike´s Value
Protect your investment and enjoy complete peace of mind on every journey. The core of the Thule 988´s design is its ability to create and maintain a safe distance between your bicycles. It features an innovative, impact-absorbing spacer that sits securely between the frames, absorbing road shock and preventing direct contact. This simple yet highly effective feature is the key to preventing the frame-on-frame or component-on-frame friction that can ruin a bike´s finish. Whether you´re navigating winding country roads or cruising on the motorway, your bikes will remain securely separated and silent, free from the annoying and damaging clatter of transit.
Universal Fit and Unshakeable Stability
Engineered for maximum versatility, the Thule 988 boasts universal frame compatibility, ensuring a secure and reliable fit for virtually all bike types and frame geometries. From the slender tubes of a road bike to the complex shapes of a full-suspension mountain bike or the robust frame of an e-bike, this protector adapts with ease. Security is further enhanced by a robust, integrated strap that firmly holds the bikes together, working in concert with the spacer to eliminate sway and side-to-side movement. This creates a more stable and solid block of bikes on your rack, improving safety and giving you one less thing to worry about.
Versatility Beyond the Bike Carrier
The utility of the Thule 988 Bike Protector extends far beyond your vehicle. It is a perfect solution for home storage and organization. When storing multiple bikes in a crowded garage, shed, or apartment, use the protector to keep them safely separated. Prevent accidental knocks and scratches while they are not in use, ensuring your bike is in perfect condition and ready for your next ride. Its simple, intuitive design allows for quick attachment and removal, making it a practical tool for every part of your cycling life.
