I agree with this, as a longtail owner that has to fight inclines. Not many, not like the cols of Brighton, but do as @Jonny69 says and stick mtb on and you’ll be laughing. I recommend a 2x with the two smaller rings like 32/22 and a big range cassette. You’ll never get up to high speed ever again but your legs will thank you on the up.
Have you looked at longtails like a kona ute or yuba Mondo? you can normally find them cheepish on eBay
