Summary: lowerable vs. tilting
People often search for "lowerable" motorcycle trailers, but technically the term means a hydraulic lowering system down to ground level. Tilting trailers, by contrast, use a gas spring system in which the deck tilts backwards.
Important: our trailer at Trailer Swarm tilts; it is not lowerable. The tilting system also lets you load without a ramp and without help – but it is lighter and needs less maintenance than hydraulic lowering systems.
