The mention of a "granny" gear makes a good point but neglects an important reason why it's necessary for me - "torque control" so I can keep a decent cadence and not just spin out like crazy.

Look for rim brakes which are the most effective.
No, that's just clueless. I'll take my hydro discs thankyouverymuch. Geeze not even a mention of hub brakes?
