Why this product
The GrandTour 16 stands out with dual-side opening and a built-in LED interior light — loading in the dark actually works. At 53 lbs with 16 cu ft and torque-knob mounting, it's Yakima's premium answer to the Thule Motion. The downside? Heavier than the Thule equivalent, and Yakima's lock system isn't as refined as Thule One-Key.
