The Rohloff hub has a lower gearing limit set to 2.4:1. That means your lowest possible gearing is a 15T sprocket with a 36T chain ring. Go below that, and you void the warranty, and you risk wearing it out much faster, I assume.
That combo gives you a range from a low of 17 gear inches to a high of 90 gear inches.
