There is a problem when I reach a hill to climb: on a normal bike, I'd downshift 2 gears and increase cadence a bit.
But the only way to force a downshift, is by slowing cadence. Then the bike slows way down; pedaling becomes a grind, and the AutomatIQ doesn't ever shift down far enough.
In practice, my hack is: stop pedaling completely for 1 second. This makes the hub reset to lowest gear. Then start climbing the hill; it may upshift a bit as it figures-out what is needed.
