A tonneau cover system for a vehicle having a cargo box 22 includes a striker which is adapted to be fixed to the cargo box 22 along with a cover disposed over and adapted to the cargo box 22 when the cover is in a closed position 36. Moreover, the cover includes a rigid frame and a latch which is mounted to the frame. The latch engages the striker when the cover is in the closed position 36 which defines a locked position of the latch. The cover further includes a link which extends from the latch along the frame and a handle coupled to the latch in order to move the latch into a released position which disengages the striker. Finally, the cover includes a coupler which is disposed about the link and coupled to the handle. The coupler moves from a first position to a second position and responds to movement of the handle with the link moving relative to the frame in order to facilitate movement of the latch into the released position.
