i agree that the 70/22 is the ratio that i'll want (as big as possible), however, my Mu Uno came with an FSA Tempo 5-blot 130mm BCD crank, so i don't think i would have to ditch it to put the 70 tooth belt ring on, right? or akm i missing something?

the gates gear calculator says that a 70/22 combo with a 120T belt will work with the Mu's chain stay length, but is there any way to figure out if the 70 will fit the Mu frame without first buying it?
also, how do i verify which 22 rear sprocket style to buy to match the SS/coaster brake hub on my bike (hub style is not something i know much about)?
