Looking for a way to ride that will put little load on the knee till it heals. Just fast enough to maintain balance. Hence the need for large cogs and small steps. Need it for no more than a few months.
The crankset is 22x30x40.
Will not use the 11T cog. Only use is to lock the cassette.

Starting at 21 and ending at 34.

Just stay with the 4 biggest cogs on a stock cassette similar to this:
Easy spinning cadences still have small gaps between shifts:
