When I lived in LA, I didn't find topography to be a major issue, though it does depend on where in LA you live. There are mountains around, but huge swathes of flat, heavily populated area. For example the whole 30-mile ride from Hollywood south to Long Beach has minimal elevation change. The main obstacle to biking in that area is that it's not safe due to the street design.
The image that sticks in my mind when I think of LA is a flat, wide, road that goes completely straight for many miles. Something like https://goo.gl/maps/DRjBP https://goo.gl/maps/DRjBP or https://goo.gl/maps/30hg3 https://goo.gl/maps/30hg3.
