Omnium and gearing or do i need granny gears

Before i got my Omnium i spent a lot of time trying to figure out if i need a battery or need granny gears.

I finally went with the standard Shimano SLX 11-40T at the back but swapped the 42t to a 38t at the front.

This ride was with a infant + cargo.

I used all of the gears and did not have to get off the bike. You will sweat but its doable with this setup.

Hope this helps someone who was wondering how the gears are.
