Hi, everybody. Andy here with etrailer.com. And today, we're gonna take a brief look at the 78 inch long galvanized heavy-duty crossbars for your Malone MicroSport trailers. Now, these heavy-duty galvanized crossbars are designed for your Malone MicroSport trailers to provide additional bar length and increase the load capacity to your sport trailer. They're designed for items such as your heavy fishing kayaks, multiple boat transport, and those needing to add bikes or cargo box to their trailer. As you can see on the table before me, all of the mounting hardware that you need to successfully install these bars are included, along with end caps for each ends of the bars, and instructions to guide you step by step.
Let me pull out my tape measure here just to confirm that length with you. We are sitting right at 78 inches long. And then the width of these bars, we are sitting right at an inch and a quarter wide on each of these bars. Well, that's gonna conclude our brief look today. I do hope that it was helpful for you.
Again, my name is Andy. Thank you for joining me..
For hauling conventional kayaks/canoes and/or bicycles this product works well and we use it to do just that. I also own a fishing kayak which weighs more than two of my conventional kayaks. I don’t think the crossbars are robust enough to handle that kind of weight over the roads I frequently drive on so I got a different trailer more suited to that boat. We still have our Malone and these crossbars work great.
Exactly what I needed! Fit perfectly and didn't take long to install.

That's awesome, Jairo! ...about how long would you say it took? haha I'm curious :)
I purchased a MicroSport trailer a few years back and since I only had 1 kayak at the time, I shortened the crossbars. But Now I have a second kayak and needed the 78" bars again. Now I can easily convert my trailer from singe to double. Great product, fast shipping, great service. Thanks again!
I bought a used Malone kayak trailer that had lighter bars and I wanted these heavy duty ones for my two kayaks, these were much better. Very easy to install and everything needed was included.
The 78 inch Malone cross bars worked perfectly on my trailer because of having wider fishing kayaks excellent product
Needed these crossbars to accommodate two Topwater kayaks (the crossbar that came with the trailer was too narrow. Very well made, heavy duty bars that came with additional hardware that improved the utility of the trailer.

One year with this trailer and absolutely no complaints or issues. Use it to carry two Old Topwater kayaks it’s great. MUCH easier than the back of the truck! Highly recommended.
Package was battered and 2 of the mounting brackets were missing. Also arrived 4 days late.
The new 78" load bars fit perfectly. Easy install and the extra width is great for 2 Malone Mega wings to fit 2 Old Town 120s. Shipping was faster than anticipated and everything arrived safe.

After a year of install and over 2 dozen trips, the bars are holding up perfectly. No issues at all with them and they are still as good as the day I installed them.
All parts accounted for. Good directions. Fast Fast Shipping.

Yes! Love seeing reviews like this. So glad it was smooth sailing from start to finish. We will be here if you need anything else!
Excellent! They do what they are supposed to. Both of our Hobie kayaks fit side by side with room to spare. Easy install.
This bar fits better on my trailer. It’s longer so kayaks have more space. It’s larger with size keeps the J hooks more secure too. It was easy to install myself, and I’m 74 yo woman. E trailer delivers

The replacement crossbars are excellent after one year of hard use. I no longer have issues with J hooks slipping. The bars offer D rings for extra security and are a bit longer than original black rubber coated bars. More space for carrying kayaks. Very happy with this product and my Thule accessories still fit as well as J hooks bought on Amazon . No rust after 1 year outside
I wanted to make an extra, tongue-mounted load bar setup for our new tandem kayak. Malone sells a tongue-mounted bar assembly for the regular MicroSport but not for the LowBed. This crossbar and hardware set combined with a Lowbed Conversion Support Tube (item # MAL33TR) worked perfectly for a DIY accessory setup! And etrailer's customer support from George and Amy was wonderful every step of the way!
I ordered an kit with wider support bars for my kayak trailer. The box was damaged in shipment and some hardware was missing. I called in about it and was promptly sent a complete set of hardware. Excellent customer service. I highly recommend doing business with etrailer
Great product. Needed to add two more kayaks to my trailer. Install was a breeze.

Crossbar has been working like a charm. No issues!
The product was just what I ordered. I'm expanding my kayak trailer to hold up to 4, so I ordered wider cross bars and another carrier. A little frustrating to find it was not really in stock, however, communication from the etrailer team was outstanding.
Heavy duty fit perfect on my Malone trailer love them
Works well, allows me to put 3 kayaks on my Malone trailer.
Worked great, replacing bent crossbars.
Missing parts, package was damaged and retaped.

Hey William, I am looking into getting you those missing pieces. Be on the look out for an email!
This is my second build. I automatically considered your products and remain extremely satisfied. When build number 3 comes along, I'll be back.
Box was open and hardware was missing.

Customer Service will reach out to you.
Why would you ever send anything USPS. Box is completely open and will be lucky if all the parts are there. Used to like trailer, but seriously, USPS?
These are good sturdy bars. I got them to attach to a utility trailer so that I could add kayak j-bars. I'm very happy with this purchase.
The parts for my kayak trailer arrived complete and very quickly. It was a pleasure working with Robert S. when placing my order.
