530 Chain, Sprocket Help

I've decided to convert to 530 chain and currently have well worn stock sprockets. I'd like to increase the low end as I do most of my riding around town and don't have much need for top end.
I've done a little research and before calling parts store would appreciate any advice as far as sprocket sizes and chain length for 530 that would give me more low end but nothing too extreme.
Also, am i going to regret the change when i end up having to shift more? Thanks for any help. Was looking at chain conversion kits on eBay, any recs on where else to get it, z1?

You may want to consider putting the year and model of your bike in your signature line. Ed
