ED209:
If I have a 32t front chainwheel will I get away with a 16t freewheel? or will it have be 14t?

would 14t be good enough Dan ... its not for racing or riding miles  :)

Dannywhac:
Using a 14T or 16T Ed will make it easy to crank up but with a low top speed pedaling, so yeah - deffo get away with it if you're only pootling along  :daumenhoch:

14T preferable (but only just) :)
