Yeah, Miche (and maybe White Industries) could only go down to 14t. But, that being said, everyone I know who had those hubs loved them. None of them were heavy torque folks, though. That's also an area to be explored. Screw on cogs are like 100 years old.
I don't know. Bike people are weird and buy with their feelings a lot (myself included).
