Idaho jack adapter

Got an adapter from Bud Smalley and just want to let everyone know it is a very well built product and would recommend it to everyone with a Nomad. I also came up with the idea of using a rare earth magnet to hole the front of the adapter to the frame of thew bike instead of a coat hanger. It holds tight and is simple to remove. I got the magnet from an old tank bag, they are really strong. Great guy to deal with also. ------

Wow, I really appreciate it when customers post kind words. I have a dozen of these ready to ship and I am working on a way to include the pins with them. The creative juices have been simmering for the last few weeks. That is why I've been quiet here. I've been trying to work out the pin details. I think I have it now.

The magnets are a great idea. Wish that I knew where to buy a boat load of them.

Mac, I love you too. I'll have to mark a page for MSC.

Thanks again.

I got mine quickly with no hassle. It's simple but works well -- that's about as good of a compliment that I can think of. Don't forget to use the RIBBON. It really is possible that it could save your life.

Bud's new jack adapter will be formed in a circle and painted gold.... I plan to wear mine like a halo all the time!

Seems reasonable to me. I got long hair and people are always calling me jesus.......

New catch phrases. Original was,

Don't lift your Nads without Idaho's Jack Adapter.

Now we have,

Bud's "Idaho jack adapter" changed my life!

Bud's adapter is to Nomads what sliced bread in a bag is to the rest of mankind!

Not sure what to do with Mac's there, but that is fairly normal for Mac.

Just remember, the RIBBON really can save your life!!

Those adapters are evolving just like the Ipods, 1st, 2nd and 3rd generation.
