sizing too small here? It's rainbow board so I sized down but maybe 30 is better?
For 100bb, it's fine. I might go slightly bigger on flop vs. two players, but no more than $25, so no big deal. Mainly because this is one of the spots that they'll call $25 if they are calling $20. If he's slow-playing, so be it. I hope he can't fold AJ/AT/etc.
I typically don't like getting in 95% of stacks postflop with just top pair when we've only gotten in just a mere 5% preflop as the likely fave, so overall I'm not a fan and mostly check a street postflop (probably leaning to a flop check with aggro guy behind).
I guess we have an aggro image going for us, and it's very difficult for him to show up with better (AA/KK/AK limp/overcalling preflop, 77 is just one combo, other rarer combos that are ahead might fire a street for fear of checking thru, etc.).
Pretty much what Javanewt said, I'd typically go $25 targeting weaker Ace's and KQ/KJ hands that will probably peel 1 street minimum. betting that extra $5 grows the pot to $95 instead of $85 which allows for a little more creativity on the next street. You can basically go 2/3 pot, 2/3 pot, all-in and its 100% standard.
betting $20, then 70 into 85, the sizing just appears to be slightly out of whack on the turn to me. if i bet $20, I'd probably bet $55-60 on the turn, still shoving most rivers trying to fold out the chop.
Nothing huge wrong in this hand, but that extra $5 from weaker ace's and King's adds up pretty significantly over time.

Except we actually want him to fold AJ or AT because its a chop with the 7 pairing?
Forgot about the 7 pairing. So much easier to see on the felt!
