I use the levers that David mentions on a couple of my bikes. One set has
seen about 4000 miles of frequent braking and still works perfectly.
No reason to spend more IMO.

I think most of the best rides are to be had by taking Metro North up to
either Pougkeepsie or Wassaic. Some great quiet country roads to be had up
there.
And of course there's the Crouton Aqueduct Trail...

Thanks to all who have helped me downsize my collection. I have one last
frame use I’d like to try to move out before I leave on Tuesday for my
summer travels through Montana and Oregon. I’m also selling some of the
parts and accessories I was going to use with the frame.

*Bilenky Custom Frame 1*. Powdercoated deep red with matching front and
rear racks. Fillet brazed, with clearance for 700 x 42 tires with fenders.
The finishing on the fillets is not as smooth as on the other frames, but
is still nicer than tig welding. 1” threaded

I just want to second the idea of getting two sets of wheel for that one
bike and *to make sure that the rims have the same width*--will make wheel
changes much easier.

I used to use VP Vice pedals but switched to Fyxation Mesa's in nylon

as I can tell.

As to the handing of small wheeled folding bikes, I find that tire width
make a huge difference.
I have Schwalbe Big Apple 20 x 2.15 tires on both my Bike Friday Llama and
Swift Folder. No problems at all doing a week long tour or a century on
the Llama.
Both bikes came with more narrow

A couple of additional thoughts:
Yes, trainers are boring. Music or Netflix works for me.
Interval training can make for a short & productive workout.
Trainer specific tires make a difference-- besides saving wear on your road
tires, they are quieter and slip less.
