Any one use a swivel wheel trailer to haul your Spyder?
I see this question asked 3 years ago, with a no. So I am asking again. Here is a link to it. http://www.cruiserlift.com/swivelwheel.html I know some of Yall will say get a toy hauler. Well I had a Road Warrior toy hauler for 4 years. I traded in on a Cedar Creek 5th wheel. I work all over the USA so I wind up staying in it 6 to 8 months of the year. Wanted more living area. So if you know anything about the swivel wheel trailer give me a ear full! The model I am looking at st the DW58. Which has a 5x8 deck. I will need to make it a 6" wider, that's not a problem. Let me know what you know. Thanks

Very nice..!!
I don't see why it would not work fine. Once you find a way to load the roadster on (low ground clearance) and secure it. Looks like a great solution to having a full mobile home and toy hauler wrapped into a compact package..hope someone here has tried one out and can give you the low down...

Biggest problem I see with it is that little wheel set up will be spinning 100mph when you are going 60 the rest looks good if you have a tire failure you will never know it behind that much weight of your trailer and the single tire will never show up in your rear view mirror

Solve this issue with a camera.

Swivel wheel
I work construction also and have been looking at the swivel wheel , they make a two wheel version that I seen and it was hauling a 4 up Razor side by side . I think I would feel better with the 2 wheel over the single .

I have used one
Yes I have used one, but different brand.
If you look close though you will see that it is not really a trailer,
look close you will see that the motor home has 2 receivers on it
one on each side that the unit slides into, what you have is a platform to
put stuff on that is sticking out the back, if you took the wheels off it would
still stick out the back but it would sag if you put a bunch of weight on it.
notice none of the pictures show one with only one receiver in the center
if it was that way it would tip from side to side.
The wheel or wheels are only there to support the weight of the load such
as the motorcycle. they are easy to back up because they don't swivel side to side
they have much smaller units for sale at Harbor Freight that use only one receiver
but they will not carry much weight.

It has to pivot up & down or else it would lift the rear end of the camper off the ground
