Can anyone recommend a source for folding pedals and tires?
I live in Northern NJ and commute to Manhattan. Internet shops are OK too.
Most of the 20" tires I see seem to be knobby BMX tires. Since I'll be riding exclusively on the street, I assume I'll want a smooth tire. I would be inclined to look for a high pressure tire, but maybe I shouldn't since the bike has no suspension. Suggestions are welcome.
Is there anything I should look for (or avoid) in folding pedals?
Here's a list of some available, so you could use it to find stockists:

As
simsles mentions, there are lots of tyres available here; one source is a UK division of Wal-MartŪ, so you may find your local store has them! They're just a nylon, smoothish tyre but have been ok so far on my bike.
