Ok guys,
I'm new to this whole micro thing and not quite sure what to do with my latest purchase. I picked up a Volume Z06 26" cruiser for a song and it has 28x11 gearing! I'm sure this works for a 20" but on a 26" it is murder! what's my best option to change it and what do these gears equate too?? I'm used to a 39 or 40/18 on my old school OM, what would be the equivatent to that in Micro? It has a Demolition hub and I think I'm limited to a 13 tooth freewheel, would it be easier or possible to go smaller in the front?? thanks in advance for the help.

plenty of 25 and under gearing out there, I would try a cheapy 25t first if that seems ok then buy a nice machined one.
