Not so sure with the above would meet your low but should achieve it on the high. Curious how drastic it would be in comparison with a 20-24-28 cogset.

misc.- crank length 165mm. Todays bikes are going short like this but I still prefer the 170 or 172.5
Playing w/ this calculator Sheldon Brown's Bicycle Gear Calculator

The setup above gives an okay low, not high enough, large steps if staying in the same IGH gear, if I memorized the whole shift pattern in theory steps could be 7-11%.
