Hi All,

I want to get a tow bar for the tail wheel of my monowheel classic, but it has the XS tailwheel design. Can anyone direct me to one that is light-weight, collapsible, and reasonably priced. I am in the USA.

Troy,

Yes, there's a great tow bar made by Bogert AViation. It's called the Bogi-Bar. Raimo recommended it to me.
Go to my gallery, Year #7, Q4, 2008 and you should see some pics and there is complete contact information and a 2 year old price.
It is light & collapsable. You can decide if the price is reasonable.
Check six,

Troy

Augustene purchased some nylon straping 1/2 inch wide about 8 foot long.From Lowes I think. She made about 1 inch loop on each end.. I extened the tail wheel axel so that I had a place to hang the loops on. Then all you need to do is pick up the strap and pull. The plane will follow where ever you go When done take the strap, fold it up, and put in the baggage compartment.

I'll take couple pictures and send to you next time I,m at the hanger this week.

Troy, I second Jim Brown's advice. I have found that an 10 ft length of soft
1/2" rope with loops on the ends to go over the axle extensions, and with a
knot joining the two limbs of the rope about a foot from their ends, works
very well. Weighs very little and tosses in the back without risking damage
to the structure

Mono is also pushable by BogiB.
That is practical when maneuvering.
