Sorted Low rise bars and ss freewheel / sprocket

[trailstar82]

Hello all,

@Imlach @Mickeyspinn Any ideas on what size chainring at the front would suit a 18t freewheel at the back?

What will you be riding, how hilly is your area? I run 34 - 18 on a few of my ss but I do spin out a wee bit

I'd probably run a 38 - 18 setup if mostly flat road cruising with no significant climbing. 36 - 18 for more versatility
