Most likely your current RDER has a max cog size of 34.
The >34T cogs are quite recent.
I wouldn't change gearing until the 2 of you have ridden together for a bit. You have 2 "engines" and may not need to.
IF you still feel you need to, you'll have a better idea of what you'll really need vs what you think you need.
I see above you will have "various" stokers.
Not everybody is cut out to be a stoker. They have to have a lot of trust in the captain.
I used to ride motorcycles, but I was the worst passenger. I could never commit to trusting the person up front the way that person needs a committed passenger.
