Current as to for the E53 or E70? the 453 is the latest OEM, sure there are more choices (yakima,thule) but i prefer OEM.:thumbup:

We are talking about the E53 racks. In the latest accessories catalog there is a different rack then the silver 453 rack. It looks much better and has a nice aerodynamic profile. The 'profile 2000' racks look like they were designed in, well, the year 2000.

Hmm..sez Max 100 Kg on each bar. That's only 220 lbs. Is that enough? Or is that per bar for a combined max of 440 lbs? :confused:

if it says that on each individual bar, then I'd think thats max load per bar... Either way I'll not likely come close to that with a kayak...

That's the 453? Because it looks nothing like the picture you posted previously from the catalogue.
