Hercman,
How flat is it where you ride? And how many teeth on the rear cog? If you have any hills at all you will be hurting if that thing still has the factory cog on it
I would recomend a 20t or 22t and if you live in the mountains a 24t might not be out of the question. They are available from various sources and dead easy to swap out.
