Yes, two front chain rings and 5 rear cogs.

Historically I have spent much time in 10th gear. I've lived in mostly flat Florida since 2005, and I do like to get it going. The shop I'm working with had to order a replacement freewheel, which came in this past Thursday so I was pretty excited about that. I loaded up the bike and took it to the shop, which said it could swap it out in about 10 minutes. That didn't happen, because they have to now order a removal tool for the old one! They ordered that, and think it will be delivered in about 2 weeks. I guess that's to be expected. My bike bears little if any resemblance to the very pricey bikes in the shop, so I get that they don't have the right tool on hand. The only similarity is that it has two wheels.

Attached is an image of the freewheel
