Alas, I live in a state that has no co-ops, best we got is a couple used bike shops that overprice and crappy lbs's. I think I'll just deal with it for now, maybe I can source a close-ish ratio 7 speed with a 34 down the line. I just have that itch to down gear everything I have as low as possible just for the heck of it. I do climb the hills I need to without much hassle and without going granny, it's just nice to think I could go up a steeper hill if I found one
