I’d recommend this to others who find the gear range pushed a bit to the high side for a commuter...Once you get the hang of it, swapping cogs is easy. I found the larger cogs online, and they were not expensive ($8 or so)...For me, swapping the gears allows dialing in a range that works better than stock.
