Kamei Grizzly roof boxes

After a tremendously successful launch in mainland Europe, the GRIZZLY series is here at last! Designed and engineered to be a cut above the competition, these three boxes provide intelligent solutions to really all the shortcomings that prevent good boxes from being excellent. Roof boxes are such relatively simple products that you might be surprised to know that these are features, not found in any other box in our range, which genuinely do make a difference!

Roof box to roof bar fittings: Most 'quick release' fittings require two hands - one to push a U bolt upwards from below the box, the other to push firmly down on the quick release clamp inside the box. This is easy on e.g. full width dual side opening boxes, less easy on narrower ones. KAMEI's solution is to have fittings that grip the thread of the U bolt with minimum effort, so you never need worry about a U bolt falling onto the car roof, and you can fit both nearside and offside fittings very quickly and easily. Both the front and the rear fittings slide so that you'll never need to drill new holes, and there are even arrows on the sliders to mark the fitting holes. Extra wide U bolts are also available. The fittings inside the box are also extra low profile - tall fittings reduce both the useable height and width of a box very considerably.

Central locking: Always a neat idea, but the reality is that when your box is full (which, believe it or not, does occasionally happen!) it can be very awkward, with only one pair of hands, to hold down the front, middle and rear of the box and turn the key at the same time. KAMEI has therefore developed and patented a lock mechanism that allows the box to spring open on its gas struts when the key is turned, but just 'clicks to shut' - in other words you just pull down on the lid to close it. You know that the box is shut because until it is you can't remove the key. The clips on the lid are steel rather then plastic, and there's even a protector for the sliding bar which operates the front and rear locks, removing the problem of items becoming jammed in the mechanism and the consequent strain on the whole locking system.

Symmetry without loss of style or function: This is one which customers have often suggested over the years - a box which you can mount so that it opens either from the left or the right hand side. (With the GRIZZLY L you may well have space on your roof bars for two boxes, one e.g. for dry gear, the other for wet sailing gear.)

Anti vibration strips: The dense closed cell foam strip below the box will prevent any irritating noise caused by the centre of the box vibrating on the roof bars when it's empty - a problem with some boxes at certain speeds when the box starts to resonate and that large empty space makes an ideal 'sound box'!

Add all these features to standard KAMEI materials and build quality and this is a range which, judged on quality and function, will be very hard to beat! It's no surprise that KAMEI boxes are the only ones on the market that come with a six year guarantee!
