"Change your 30 T chain ring to a 24 T."

Well, the thing is, changing the cassette seems simpler and cheaper, and creating a 24/25 pairing only gets me down to 25.6 gear inches. Also, I'm pretty sure my front derailleur wouldn't be able to handle the 18-tooth jump from the 42-tooth ring to the 24-tooth ring.
