It's on an aluminum la Jolla frame I'd like to change the front sprocket to be bigger and easier to pedal but everything is just the way I want it. I'm proud of the vintage ape hangers, exercise bicycle seat and solid rubber tubes in the tires.
 
Hey David, welcome. I just want to make sure you will get what you are looking for with your gearing modification. Larger sprocket will make pedaling more difficult, but give you higher top speed. Think of the gearing on a 3x crank. The smallest ring is for easy pedaling up hills, the big one is for when you really want to get moving
