Seriously? I guess I better throw my bike away and forget it since I don't have a Rohloff14. Oh, and I may be guilty of gearing my bike ridiculously low. Sorry. I shall toss it in the bin and take out a mortgage to buy the bike you recommend, then walk it up the hills. Thanks so much for your sage advice.
