Soon to pick up our new trailer tent, never had one before and would welcome advice on the following. It does not come as standard with a jockey wheel, is this something I should get fitted, is there any great advantage?
                    All replies welcome

Hi Roger,
Congrats on your new toy...!
We have one on our Lettie, find it easier to move/guide around the pitch when deciding where to set up. Indecisive female as you can imagine..

Enjoy your TT - we love ours!

It is easier to move about with a jockey wheel, saves banging the pole it comes with against your shins too! I got one cheap off ebay.

Hi Roger, it is so much easier to move around with the jockey wheel. Otherwise you will have to lift the tow hitch and pull it around at the same time. Makes it easier when hitching up to the car as well.

Enjoy your Camplet, we love ours.

Thanks for that Steve. Somewhere I must have known that, just being a tight wad and trying to save £50. Thanks again for taking the time to post the info

Don't spend £50 on it though, mine was £15! Loads of places sell them it's a standard size.

Really easy to fit too, no tools needed.
