True -- when the VGT was introduced, a "small cog" from SunTour was 14T.
I do have a 12T cog on the mountain bike (46/12 = 100 gear-inches with 26" wheels, about the same as the traditional 52/14 on 27" wheels), but this is with SunTour XD, which combines traditional SunTour slant-plano with Simplex- or Shimano-style whole-body pivoting.
