Very nice explained as commented by the other people here but in my opinion not quite correct. The the wheel they not only need to be flipped 180 degrees but they also need to be swapped end to end otherwise the straps face the wrong direction (towards the centre of the bike rather than away from it) - Thule specifically call this is out in the fitting instructions. Also the rear roof bar mount needs to be flipped so you don't have to reach over the carrier to lock it down (again covered in the instructions). Fully agree the the Thule instructions are not at all easy to follow but just thought I'd point this out. Great stuff otherwise..
@_LuisS5 ай бұрын
Yeah.. Now that you mention it, I see what you're saying. And it does make sense.. At the time of this video I was actually fitting 8 to 12 carriers a week and 3 or 4 of those needed flipped and I never realised I was reaching over to lock the rear roof bar mount. Just got used to the process I guess.. Thanks for pointing that out.. 👍🏾

Great video...😊 Any help with the 591 model?? The base of the arm unit is different and I cant seem to unscrew it to remove it and switch it to the other side...
@_LuisS5 ай бұрын
It's been years since I touched a 591. Everybody was upgrading for the 598 when I worked with these. But 591 is basically the same as a 598. Try give a tap on the screws to break them free and wiggle the base off once unscrewed. The principle of removing it is the same as a 598 if memory serves me right...
