I can hardly believe your seat is that low. I find when I have it adjusted higher, I can push harder on the pedals. Or maybe you chose a frame a bit big for your height.
Are these the parts?
Fork:SR Suntour SF14-XCT-MLO w/ 100mm travel
Front Derailleur:Shimano Altus, M310, 34.9mm
Rear Derailleur:Shimano Acera, M360 SGS, 8-speed
Number of Gears:24
Shifters:Shimano SL-M310 Rapid Fire, 8-speed
Chainset:SR Suntour XCT
You can do what you want but I find the videos a bit more interesting when you see a description of the parts.
