Welcome aboard James. Many here are having great success with a 14 tooth front sprocket. You can change back and forth between this and the stock 15 tooth without adjusting the chain. Having said this, one school of thought is that a smaller front sprocket stresses the chain more, and the person who posted this (sorry, dont's recall offhand) recommended going to a larger rear sprocket instead.
