Dual wheel takes more weight off the bike.
Single tracks behind your wheels, a big help on trails where there's a narrow portion of compacted earth.

That's the main differences IMO. There's slightly more rolling resistance in a dual wheeled I'm guessing, also another tire to worry about.

Single wheeled might be more aerodynamic, if that matters. They also fight steering input, since you're tilting your entire load.
