Looking for a light tow bar for LSAs etc.

Thinking of one that folds up or comes apart.

Probably end up building one but if anyone knows of any designs/plans that would save me the trial & ERROR portion, that would be a great help :rollseyes:

I have one for my Navion that another Navion guy built out of 3/4" copper plumbing pipe. A handle made of two Tees and a short piece of straight pipe, slides down the lets trombone style to latch it around the axle hubs.

Take a look at this tow bar made from an aluminum crutch. I thought it was pretty ingenious. You can find crutches at any thrift store.
