Upon further review, I'm actually using a 14x28 on the rear.
Biopace 52/42
Shimano 170mm crank, A350 FD and RD
Diacompe 505 brakes.
Sorry about image sizes - not sure how to shrink them yet.
Nothing fancy by any stretch.
Nice Bike, I too like the blue tape, gonna try that. You already have a 28t rear cluster, so as previously suggested try go with a 39t small chain ring, might have to ditch the biopace for that, not sure, and if your going to worry about the numbers so much, get a modern bike, most of CV doesn’t care.

28t rear cog, 39-53t upfront
