The Nomad ADV travel tower explained

A solid construction made from 4 mm marine grade aluminium panels for durability, combined with aircraft grade billet aluminium cross members. Beautifully machined to tight tolerances. Self bearing construction with a solid connection to headstock with 4 bolts, no welding or frame modifications required. 100% Bolt-on construction, tested under extreme conditions. All fasteners in stainless steel. 

Designed as a travel and rally navigation tower
The tower for our FE Nomad is designed as both a rally and a travel tower. The basic tower structure of each version is the same and can easily be extended with either our optional rally kit or simply fit a GPS and USB charging points for travel use. 
Our navigation towers have been tested all over the world in just about every major rally event. They have also been used in extreme conditions on all 6 continents by adventurers from all over the world.

The Nomad tower has room for 4 switches to power accessories such as heated grips or clothing or extra spotlights. We also have the option of up to 4 USB charging points, DIN accessory plugs and an ignition lock.

We fitted the tower as low as possible to give maximum view of the front wheel. We are firm believers of no-nonsense engineering, this philosphy results in a strong and practical construction which is repairable on the road. For strength and repairability we made a bolted rather than welded construction.

For rally use Nomad ADV have a range of options available to order, ranging from regular to Pro Roadbook holders, F2R and Laba7 Roadbooks, tripmeters from RNS and ICO.

Our optional Pro-bar mount also helps to prevent your handlebar from breaking and doubles as a Sentinel mounting bracket. The optional rally kit has a quick release system, which together with the F2R connection box allows a quick transformation from a travel to a rally bike.

Dakar inspired design
Wind protection is provided by an original (OEM) KTM 450RR Rally screen, designed in a wind tunnel and tested in the Dakar at speeds of up to 170 km/hr! Well over the requirements of true travellers perhaps but a testimony to how good these screens are. Not only a very good and tested screen, but also widely available from every KTM dealer and for a realistic price, which fits in with our philosophy to make a kit which can be repaired easily when on the road. Please note images show the optional tower decal kit.

Proven construction and made for travelling
In contrast to other offerings, the Nomad tower is complete. Ready for fitment to the bike straight out of the box, nothing more to pay. It bolts to the bike, no welding required. The wiring is neatly enclosed inside the tower, using the original wiring loom and using the same methods for fitment as used in helicopters to ensure the wiring doesn't get chafed in rough terrain. For items like a GPS, satellite tracker, Go-Pro etc. we have made provisions for up to 5 RAM mounts. They are readily available, inexpensive, work very well and have proven to be virtually indestructible. The tower can accommodate up to 4 USB charging points or a combination of USB and DIN accessory connectors. The switches are extreme heavy duty, rain waterproof and don't need external relays to operate items like spotlights, fog lights, heated vests, heated grips etc. There are 4 holes pre-cut for the switches. The option for an ignition lock helps to ensure your bike also stays yours.

Precision, adaptable and well thought out
To ensure high quality we use marine grade aluminium and CNC/laser cut each part using the latest equipment. Each part is finished to a high standard (everything chamfered obviously, no sharp edges). 95% constructed in Holland. No made in China parts used in the tower and even the switches Nomad ADV use are made in Europe! For ease-of-use Nomad ADV also looked for a modular construction, one which could incorporate a wide range of headlight configurations and wouldn't tie you down to one particular type of GPS. The design accommodates various types of digital dash options available (including re-using the original Husqvarna TrailTech dash but in an easier to read position). 

Complete and no welding required
Several Rally towers on the market are just that: just a tower, a collection of plates and bolts. To make it into something that works and fits, you need a variety of extra and optional brackets. Some of them even require drilling or welding to the frame! Most of them have the wiring hanging all over the place, out in the weather and no room for accessory switches. By the time you're finished they have not only become quite expensive but often look like a mismatch of a Meccano construction. 

Full aluminium construction, no carbon fibre
We have nothing against carbon fibre, but for safety reasons we've chosen aluminium for the tower. Aluminium doesn't shred into thousands of sharp, ragged and potentially lethal sharp edges on impact. Our tower is rounded where it matters, on very heavy impact it might bend (although we have yet to see one doing that, but it will never shatter.  ​​

All components are designed by Nomad ADV and locally made by Nomad-ADV in Holland.
