I did find a Suntour Winner 7-speed 12-30 freewheel at Loose Screws for $60, still a little expensive but within the realm of possibility. I'll have to see how my front dérailleur would handle the granny combination of 28-30.
Which leads to another thought. I've got an old Suntour Winner body and 7-speed spacers in my parts bin, along with a few cogs. Is anyone still selling Suntour Winner cogs? Back in the day (of course we're talking 25 years ago) they were really common, and any good shop had a cog board. I could (and did) custom-build any reasonable gear combination.
