I just replaced an old rusty freewheel with a 13-28 7 speed, 15 bucks I think, sunrace probably, so options are there.
what is your triple? Did you neglect to write down the midring?
I have an old Blackburn front rack, does nashbar still sell the copy or did they go under?
my old tourer with 24 granny and 13-30 7 speed cassette is about 21 gear inches, so not bad, yours is probably 23,24.
main thing will be to see how bike is with a load.
