Yes, they are very similar, just slightly different design. The Logo Evo was sold out everywhere, has been for a while it seems. The Grand Tour was really the only Tubus rack available from several online retailers.
The lower down aspect is something that I notice, and partly why I got this rack. As you've seen, there are also aluminum models with similar lower pannier rails.
Oh, are you Dutch?
