You say little how steep, what hill?, how strong are you, what have you tried so far..
Math..
Rear cog T divides front chainring T .... example 20 cog 40 chainring is 1:2, 1 rotation of the crank turns the wheel twice.
then measure your wheel size .. inch diameter .. 2:1 x 27" = a 54" gear ..
that is the math, remember that from school?
A hill, like stairs have measurements ... distance traveled, elevation gained.. that too can be expressed as a ratio.
so how steep/ hilly, ? and what gear? have numbers to define them..
