    Collin: Hey everyone, it's Collin here at etrailer.com and today we're going to take a look at Malone's MicroSport LowBed Trailer with the second tier. Now, this trailer is a great option for getting that extra cargo, or even that bigger equipment like our kayaks, loaded and taken with you on your trip when you might not be able to fit it in your vehicle. So, as you can see right away, the feature that stands out on this is that it has a second tier above that low bed. It's going to basically be a roof rack on top of your trailer. It's going to have two 50 inch crossbars for you to get your cargo up here. We've got our Malone box right here, and then two bikes on the other side.As you can see, with that second tier we've got all of our lighter stuff loaded on top, and that's creating more space down low for other stuff.
    We got our two kayaks right here, but we have enough space to even put a couple more kayaks on if we want. Now, our bottom tier is going to have a weight capacity of 800 pounds, so that's more than enough capacity to get your heavier kayaks and canoes loaded on top. It's going to able to hold kayaks, canoes up to 20 feet long, and then we go up to the top and we're going to have a weight capacity of just 100 pounds. We are riding close to that weight capacity as it is, with our box loaded, and with our bike racks up there and loaded, so just make sure you are mindful of that, and that you do your math and make sure you're not over that limit.Now, what's really awesome about this trailer is that it's very lightweight, so it's going to be easy to handle by yourself. It's going to have this nice handle that's bolted onto our coupler, with this nice rubber grip right here to help you with moving it around so your hand doesn't slip at all.
    Moving it on your own is very possible. You just unplug your wiring, wrap that around, get your safety chains off. Then we're going to unlock our coupler, just pull that trigger right there and pull it up, that unlocks it. When it's locked you're not going to be able to pull it off of the ball. Unlocked, we can pick it up off the trailer and then move it to wherever we need to.
    When loading it up just bring it, set it on top of your two inch ball, lock it down, and then don't forget to get all your safety hooks and wiring attached.What's awesome about this low bed of the trailer, and having our kayaks loaded on it, is that it's not as hard to get our kayaks loaded and unloaded when we get to our destination. Not going to have to reach up on top of my roof and pull it down, possibly injuring myself if I drop it. It's just right at my chest length, so I can just pick it up and off the kayak carrier, and be on my way. Another awesome feature about this trailer is that it is fully submergable, including the LED lighting system. If you got some bigger fishing kayaks, or some canoes loaded flat on top of the lower bed, you can just lower it all the way into the water, just cast your kayaks or canoes off, and then pull back out of the water.Now, something I thought about right when I saw this trailer loaded up like this, I thought about how, after a long day of being outdoors, maybe you did some kayaking, you went biking as well, just a really fun day, but you get home, you're really tired.
    You're just drained, you want to go to bed. We can just get all of our cargo and our equipment into our cargo box, like our paddles and our helmets, and stuff like that. And instead of unloading all of our equipment, we'll just get it right off of our hitch, and wheel it into our garage. It's going to be ready to go for next time.Now, the trailer does not come with a jack of any kind, but it does have this little stand right here with this bracket. We can just set it down on top of that, and that'll keep it in place. Now, after unloading all our gear we've gone ahead and removed all of our racks so we could take a closer look at the trailer in our garage. Now, the entire trailer has a pre-galvanized steel construction. The brackets are going to be a little bit thicker, a little heavier gauge steel, just so it can support the weight of holding the upper tier together, as well as the lower crossbars.Now we're going to go ahead and give you a few measurements, just so you can get an idea of the space this trailer might take up, especially for storage purposes. Now, the height of the trailer from the top of the top crossbar to the ground is going to be 58 inches. The width of the trailer with the lower crossbars installed is
