Because I'm a skinflint, and I already have a spare set of rigid MTB forks I can turn into a single-wheel trailer without spending money on it.
I have two trailers already, both converted child trailers... My wife and I don't need another really, but my son has no trailer, and we want to go bike camping in the spring.
My son however has no trailer and I do have a spare set of rigid MTB forks that I could turn into a single-wheel trailer easily.
