# Bike Friday Diamond Llama Folding Bike

#### About the Diamond Llama


This is our burliest frame made for adventure - especially when the pavement ends. It handles gravel grinding, snow and dirt trails particularly well for 20-inch wheels (with the appropriate tires). It's ready to accompany you on a fully-loaded tour, hundreds of miles across a continent, or exploring your favorite old logging roads. We only use industry standard components (zero proprietary parts) to make the bike easier to maintain over a long life of use.

The Diamond Llama is one of the only folding bikes in the world that can take a heavier rider. Most folding bike companies design to max around 230lbs total rider weight. Bike Friday creates models for rugged use with up to 330lbs max rider weight (with custom frame upgrades). The standard diamond frame is built for riders up to 260-lbs. We want to help every rider find a bike that fits them.

##### Travel Trailer added to Travel Case:


The Bike Friday Travel Trailer frame can be added as a choice to the Travel Case to make a full travel system. The Travel Trailer includes everything you need to make a  Travel Case into a tow-ready trailer. The system includes the aluminum trailer frame, two (12") wheels, protective socks for packaging and one reflective flag and thumb nuts to connect your travel suitcase.

The trailer package also comes with a rear hub axle mounted hitch. This hitch can be used in place of a bike-specific hitch, or as a connection method on another bike so you can swap your trailer system quickly to another bike. There is a male air nipple included as well (integrated into the axle hitch).

The gross weight limit for the trailer is 75 pounds. This includes the weight of the trailer (6.7lbs/2.95 kg) and the average case weight is 13lbs, so the total capacity for your gear is 55lbs.

All felt packing bags and blankets are made from Eco-Fi fleece, a product made of 100% post-consumer recycled plastic bottles.
