Then check if you can find a cassette or freewheel (depending on what kind of hub you got on the rear wheel) with a smaller set of cogs... Also check if your rear derailleur can take the difference of size from a new cassette (or freewheel) to the old one

You may have also to shorten a bit the chain...

A couple of things to think about but everything's possible!!!

how do you check if your rear derailleur can take the difference of size from a new cassette (or freewheel) to the old one
