I tried toe straps, and I performed worse for some reason, I tried them and thought I was faster, but when I took them off, I gained 3 mph. I think my legs are awkward. This was all on 48tx11t. Tommorrow I will try 11t cog again, but everyone is correct about aerodynamics. 3 mph headwind is easily to cut through on 13t, but on 11t, I am so heavy and slow that I can see the past as if it were the current time.
If you really want a fairing, then first you should convert your folding bike into something
like this:
Aid then you can put a fairing and even a sock on it:
As far as feet attachment methods, I personally prefer clipless pedals over both clips and straps.
