About 30 mins/5 miles through pretty heavy North London traffic

I live on top of a rather big hill so it’s really the ride home which it would help with. I tend to cycle my normal bike a couple of times a week on average in spring/summer, but I’m thinking the ease of getting back up the hill and expending minimal effort on the way in would be a strong incentive to avoid the deeply unpleasant summer sweatfest in the tube.
