1:1 low a 28t , overdrive 2nd & 3rd, are effectively a 40 & 50t.. Merry Sales Imports picked it up.
Patterson Metro is also a 1:1 28t low, with a '45t' high...
a cable shifted variant in the niche of a Schlumpf speed drive (which uses a 34t chainring at its minimum, 34, '54')...

I very much like the Patterson Metro. I've got 2 in the shop. That is what I was thinking when I said make it 6 speed (if starting with 3). (46T high I always thought).. Though you can convert it to start with a 46 T-Ring and have your second effective ring be about 73T.
Efneo GTRO looks very interesting. Thank you for the heads up on this #fietsbob !
