I think the rails to which they fit are rated to 75kg - so that's also worth taking in to consideration. 2020 SDV6 D5 HSE, Carpathian Grey +

From memory I think the LR bars were rated at about 72 kg across both. (I say from memory as I had a lapse and put the old boy into off road height when entering my garage, I subsequently no longer have them)

Roof rails must be rated higher tho to accommodate roof racks?

Past threads have identified max loads - moving and static, if do a search might find them. LR Exped rack I'm sure is only rated at about 54Kg tho?

From memory it is 75kg max roof load - including bars/rack itself. I'll check the book when I get down this mountain. A vaccine does not stop you catching a virus, or passing it on, or getting ill from it, really ill. It does reduce the likelyhood of you dying when really, really ill. Stay Alive - KEEP AWAY FROM PEOPLE.
