Hi all,
I had a question regarding my bike and my friend told me this forum would be a good idea.
Recently, I bought a bike from evan's cycles, and my problem is that they have underestimated the raw strength in my muscular, yet perfectly proportioned, legs. I find the gears are too easy. It's a 7 speed hub gear - see below. Commuting to to and from work, I find I cruise along flat ground on gear 6. I want to make that gear 6 into gear 4. Going on hills, I never seem to go below 3, so gears 1 and 2 never get any use.
The bike I have is the Viva Urban De Luxe Hybrid Bike and I got it from evan's cycles. Here's the link:

If it helps, the one I got was the Black, 56 cm version.
Could you let me know how best to change it? Thanks in advance and let me know if you need more information!
