Hi,
My folder with 20" wheels currently has 6gears. The cassette fitted is a shimano mf tz20 which I understand is a 14 - 28 t cassette.
The bike has 3 modes and on medium setting I can just about keep up on the flat but in high assist mode or downhill I am just peddling air. So far I have not needed to change down by more than 1 or 2 gears for any of hills around here I need to climb.
My question Is can anyone recommend a replacement cassette that would maybe give me a smaller ...say 11 t top gear ?. Is this sensible or should I look to increase the main chainring which I guess is also possible but I have strutted to find a 51t single chainring set - I think my current chainring is 44 or maybe 48t.
Any advise would be appreciated as I an very much a novice about such things.
Regards
Phil
