You should totally give it a try sometime if you’re feeling up to it and have a multi speed bike. It’s really hard the first time, but so much of the challenge is mental hurdles like feeling tired, balance when you’re going slow, and shifting. The physical challenge is a lot less than you might think.
I accidentally opted into a really tough commute a few years ago (~400ft ascent which is about 122m) and it was really challenging at first but it’s amazing how fast you can improve.
I also bought an ebike. They are incredible for days you aren’t feeling well or need to grab extra groceries. Good luck with your conversion project! I bet you’ll love it
