The Bike Friday Travel Trailer frame can be added as a choice to the Travel Case to make a full travel system.

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.
