The Thule 823 Pro Gate Mate Pro is a heavy duty tail gate pad designed to protect both your bikes as well as your pick-up truck. The 823 Pro is designed to work in combination with most compact trucks. The GateMate Pro is a great option for those looking for an alternative to mounting the bikes in rack on either the hitch, box, or roof of your truck. The 823 Pro allows you to get the bikes in the back of your truck as fast as possible and get you on the road to your destination.
Inward facing storage
The GateMate Pro features mesh pockets inside the box of your truck which work great to store items such as gloves, kneepads and helmets. This allows you to keep the interior of your truck cleaner and less cluttered.
Integrated bike separation
The bikes are separated by the adjustable padding on the top of the tailgate pad. This allows you to make sure you have proper spacing between each of bikes and limit any potential scratching due to the bikes rubbing against one another.
Multiple strap anchors
Since bike geometry is far from consistent between different styles of bikes Thule designed the 823Pro so that there was multiple places in which the straps could be positioned to secure your bike onto the tailgate pad. This allows you to carry a wide variety of bikes with ease.
