My Cavalier 102.5 homebuilt has a one off swivel nose gear. I was having difficulty finding a towbar that would fit properly. This one does the trick and seems robust but light weight.

Towbar worked well on my RV7A. Light weight but adequate strength for purpose. Opened up front wheel pant holes to 1 inch dia. Well worth the price.
