I rode the San Francisco version when I was there but stayed on flat Market St. I wasn't going to try those hills either, but at least the SF bikes have 8 speeds.
I've gotten up Cat Hill in Central Park on one, I haven't had a need to try Harlem Hill yet. I have seen tourists there on them. FWIW I rode one Monday morning in some high gusty winds. Opted to take a bus later that same day.
