The smallest of chainrings on a bicycle with three chainrings. So easy to pedal your grandmother could ride it.
That hill was so steep, I wish my bike had a granny gear to get up it.

Get the granny gear mug.
An extremely low first gear in a four-speed truck transmission. It is used for climbing steep hills, for moving slowly over bad terrain, or for driving slowly.
We drove to the top of Mount Bross (14,172 feet) in granny gear.

The smallest of a triple front chainring set. Called a granny ring because, like granny, it doesn't have many teeth.
You may have to drop it down to granny gear for this steep pinch.

Uh oh she's falling to sleep, jam her into Granny Gear!
