That was my beef with electric too. As far as pedaling hills is concerned,
it's a darn sight easier with a gx35 kicker. THe nice thing about friction
that it's simple to lift the roller off when you want to pedal or coast.
There's some really steep long grades around here that anything short
of 5 hp aint gonna climb. That's when I lift off and just use the super
low gearing of my old school mountain bike. It was made back when
mtn. bikes were designed to go uphill instead of down.
