Im a bit of a dumb ass when it comes to gear ratios and all that,
If i've got a 16t freewheel whats the smallest freewheel i can use on a cruiser that wont spin like a hamster?
Thanks

or if you have a flip flop hub (large thread one side, smaller on the other)
30/13
33/14
Or you could change to a 15T freewheel that fits std hubs (same thread as a 16/17/18 t freewheel)

and run 34/15
