I would get rid of them and get something better if I could be sure they could handle the grade.

What did you buy? I bought one for my little one so he can hang with me on our sunday lunch ride. After a couple rides, he went back to grinding it out on a regular bike. Hats off to him. Now he drops me on the climbs on my bad days. Our ebike is a Ride-1-up. it will do 20mph with battery without assist. If you turn the pedals, it will do 20-29 mph without issues. I have gotten close to 50 miles with pedal assist. Hills are not an issue. My house is at 900' hill so its a grind up a mile hill with some steep parts. I have to help pedal up some of it with full throttle. It will go up most hills with just battery, no assist.
