What are you planning on buying? Cranks for $40 does not sound good. It would be pretty stupid to just use a 28t chainwheel if you want a good gear ratio. You need a cassette hub to go that low.

If you get a 36 tooth sprocket, get a 13 tooth freewheel made by Odyssey.

Hmmm. Way back before you were born, I had a Mongoose that must have weighed 40lbs+. I could never get it more than 2 feet off the ground by bunnyhopping.
